Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Green-card filing pattern in this occupation

Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 66 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.

Green-card follow-through: 99%

Of 78 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 1 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 497 days.100% of their filings were for a worker who already held the job.Only certifications past the 180-day window are counted — recent ones cannot have expired yet.

Files H-1B transfers

49 transfer filings in the last year, covering 49 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

About the role

  • Agent Factory is where Workday's next chapter gets built.
  • This is production-grade AI-deeply embedded into Workday's platform-not research experiments or maintenance work.
  • You'll work at the intersection of AI, platform architecture, and human workflows, with the autonomy to shape how agents reason, act, and scale responsibly.

Responsibilities

  • As an AI Engineer in Agent Factory, you will develop and integrate the intelligent feature layers behind Workday's next generation of AI agents.
  • Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work.

Requirements

  • 1+ years of professional experience (or a strong, demonstrable portfolio of applied project work) working with Large Language Models (LLMs), foundational models, or modern AI APIs.
  • 2+ years of hands-on experience with API integration, backend application development, and managing data pipelines.
  • 2+ years of experience working with core development languages (such as Python) and handling modern software engineering workflows (CI/CD, testing frameworks, and version control).
  • Product & Application Focus: A strong interest in user experience and a passion for applying AI capabilities to solve practical, real-world customer problems.
  • Agile Collaboration: Proven ability to thrive in a team environment, collaborating closely with software developers, product managers, and UX designers.
  • We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role).
  • Workday is committed to providing reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals during our application process, in order to perform one or more essential functions of their job, as well as regarding the use of AI tools for employment decision-making to any degree.

Nice to have

  • Bachelor's degree (Master's preferred) in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or an equivalent technical field.

Skills

Compensation

  • $173,000 USD - $259,000 USD

  • In addition, Workday will never ask candidates to pay a recruiting fee, or pay for consulting or coaching services, in order to apply for a job at Workday.

Benefits

  • Working within a collaborative, cross-functional pod, you'll implement how pre-trained foundational models (LLMs, vision APIs, etc.) power functional, user-facing enterprise software.
  • Our Approach to Flexible Work
  • This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together.
  • Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.

Company info

  • We're forming small, senior, cross-functional AI teams that bring together product leaders, AI engineers, and full-stack builders to create intelligent agents used by millions of people every day.
  • Teams own problems end to end, collaborate tightly across disciplines, and use the right tools to solve real customer challenges at global scale.
  • High trust, high expectations, and real impact.
  • Engineering, but brighter.
