## Description

Software Guidance & Assistance, Inc., (SGA), is searching for a Workday Developer for a CONTRACT assignment with one of our premier Regulatory clients. This position is fully remote.
Seeking a Workday engineer to strengthen our HCM platform work. Although this is a contractor position, the expectations mirror a senior engineer: deep hands-on experience, sound technical judgment, and the ability to own work end to end with minimal direction. The ideal person pairs deep Workday hands-on experience with real custom-build chops (Java/Python) and is AI-forward - someone who already uses AI tooling to work faster and looks for ways to automate. This is a hands-on role for someone who ships, works independently, and raises the engineering bar around them., * Configure, build, and maintain solutions across the Workday HCM platform.

 * Design and build Workday integrations (Studio, EIB, Core Connectors, web services) for inbound and outbound data.
 * Extend the platform with custom development and automation that reduces manual effort.
 * Apply AI tooling (coding assistants, agentic workflows, LLMs) to accelerate delivery and automate routine work.
 * Write clean, tested, maintainable code and help uphold engineering standards and SDLC practices.
