What the job involves
- As part of the Enterprise AI organization within Business Technology, we are the architects of Workday’s "Customer Zero" strategy. Our mission is to transform our own global operations into a powerhouse of innovation by deploying a cutting-edge, AI-driven ecosystem of tools and services
- We are a team of builders and skeptics relentlessly questioning the status quo to deliver the scalable, intuitive technology that defines the future of work. By joining us, you’ll be part of a team that doesn't just build our products—we are the first to prove their power at scale
- As the AI Product Owner for Customer Zero, you will occupy one of the most unique and influential seats at Workday. You aren’t just building features for a hypothetical user; you are transforming our own enterprise—a global organization of thousands—into the ultimate proving ground for Workday’s innovation
- Your mission is to treat Workday-the-company as our most demanding, sophisticated, and strategic customer. You will hunt for friction points within our internal business processes, architect end-to-end AI-powered solutions using our own technology stack, and ensure that by the time a product reaches our external customers, it has been forged in the fire of real-world enterprise complexity
- Drive Internal Discovery & Strategy: Partner with internal business leaders (HR, Finance, IT, and Operations) to identify high-impact problems that can be solved using Workday’s product suite
- Architect and Deliver AI-powered Solutions: Work closely with engineering, UX and business stakeholders to turn emerging AI capabilities and ambiguous business problems into holistic end-to-end AI/ML driven product solutions
- Provide Continuous Feedback: Serve as the primary bridge to the core Product & Technology teams. You will translate internal "pains" into actionable product requirements, identifying gaps and advocating for the features needed to make our products world-class
- Define and Operationalize Success Metrics: Define and implement measurable KPIs including quality, adoption, trust, and business value, using data-driven insights to guide rapid iteration
- Manage stakeholder alignment: Set clear expectations with business stakeholders and timely communicate roadmap progress, execution trade-offs, and the measurable impact of AI initiatives
- Champion Workday Solutions: Use our internal success stories (and failures) to create blueprints, best practices, and case studies that help our external customers maximize their own Workday investment

Our take
Workday is a cloud-based software vendor that provides management of workforces and finances. The company uses a single database for workforce management and financial management to offer integration and optimize business intelligence across companies. It has added to the packages and tools it offers over the years, providing analytic options that allow companies to combine third-party data with information collected by Workday.
The company has also grown through acquisitions and partnerships to broaden its capabilities. Most recently, in 2025 it purchases Sana, an AI-driven enterprise knowledge and learning platform, to create a "new front door for work". This acquisition allows Workday to integrate Sana's AI-powered search, agents, and learning capabilities with its own data and workflows, allowing employees to access information, automate tasks, and complete their day entirely within Workday.
Through a combination of strategic acquisitions and in-house development, Workday has built a comprehensive suite of HR, financial, and enterprise tools. By focusing on innovation and AI-driven workflows, the company continues to push productivity and decision-making for organizations worldwide. Building on this track record, Workday is very much positioned for even more growth, reinforcing its status as a leader in shaping the future of work.
