REMOTE Workday Architect

Job Description

A large retail company is seeking a highly experienced Workday Solution Architect to lead the end-to-end technical architecture for its Workday Financial Management implementation, complementing an already-deployed Workday HCM environment across a complex, multi-business enterprise. This role requires deep, hands-on expertise designing, configuring, integrating, and governing Workday Financials and HCM at scale-not conceptual oversight, but true architectural ownership. The architect will define a secure, scalable, compliant, and integrated Workday platform that aligns business requirements with system configuration, data, security, and controls, while challenging system integrator designs and ensuring long-term maintainability across Finance and HCM domains.

Pay rate: $100-$110/hr
