Job Description:

We are seeking an HRIS Sr. Professional to serve as the first line of HRIS support for Workday. This role focuses on day-to-day user enablement, request triage and resolution, routine system maintenance, data quality, documentation, reporting, and testing. The position resolves routine issues independently and partners with Tier 2/3 HRIS and technical resources when a request requires deeper product expertise, complex configuration, integrations, security changes, or broader impact analysis.

Job Responsibilities:

• Serve as Tier 1 HRIS support for Workday, helping HR users and other authorized users understand how to complete transactions, locate information, and use available self-service resources.
• Triage and manage assigned Workday support requests through Jira; gather relevant details, troubleshoot issues, document work and resolution, communicate status, and route requests to the appropriate owner when escalation is required.
• Investigate routine Workday issues by reviewing user steps, data, business process status, security/access context, and available documentation; resolve issues within established scope and escalate complex or higher-risk issues to Tier 2/3 resources.
• Create, modify, and maintain simple Workday reports and support users in locating existing reports and dashboards. Escalate advanced reporting, calculated-field, matrix/composite, or broader analytics needs as appropriate.
• Perform approved low-risk/simple Workday configuration and maintenance activities in accordance with HRIS change control, testing, approval, documentation, and production-validation standards.
• Maintain HRIS job aids, knowledge articles, FAQs, and other user-enablement content; keep materials current as Workday processes and functionality change and partner with functional stakeholders for business-process nuances.
• Perform routine data-quality audits, exception reviews, reconciliations, and follow-up activities; document findings, correct or coordinate correction of issues within scope, and escalate recurring or higher-risk data concerns.
• Assist Tier 2/3 HRIS team members with functional testing, regression testing, test-script execution, defect documentation, and validation of enhancements and configuration changes.
• Participate in Workday semi-annual release readiness activities, including assigned feature review, regression testing, issue documentation, and production validation.
• Support ongoing HRIS operational work such as documentation clean-up, process follow-up, recurring administrative activities, and stabilization efforts that improve the reliability and user experience of Workday.
• Follow established HRIS governance, change-control, data-protection, documentation, and escalation standards and maintain accurate work records in Jira.
• Partner collaboratively with HR functional stakeholders, Payroll, Business Applications, and other HRIS team members to resolve requests and provide a consistent support experience.
• Identify recurring user questions, defects, data issues, or process pain points and surface opportunities for improved job aids, training, self-service, controls, or system enhancements.
• Perform other duties as required.

Qualifications:

• 2-4+ years of HRIS, HR operations, HR technology, or related systems-support experience; hands-on Workday experience strongly preferred.
• Working knowledge of Workday navigation and business processes; exposure to one or more functional areas such as HCM, Recruiting, Benefits, Compensation, Absence, Talent/Performance, Learning, Help, or Reporting is preferred.
• Experience troubleshooting user or system issues and knowing when to escalate based on complexity, risk, or required system access.
• Experience creating or maintaining basic reports, user documentation, job aids, knowledge content, or training materials.
• Comfort working with data, performing recurring audits or reconciliations, and identifying discrepancies with strong attention to detail.
• Experience participating in system testing, documenting defects/results, and validating expected outcomes is preferred.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and common productivity tools; experience with Jira or another ticket/request management platform is preferred.
• Ability to explain system steps and technical information clearly to users with different levels of Workday experience.
• Strong organization, follow-through, customer-service orientation, curiosity, and practical problem-solving skills.
• Ability to manage sensitive employee information with confidentiality and professionalism and follow established access and data-governance requirements.
