Description
We're seeking a Senior Software Development Engineer to join our Paradox team at Workday. You'll design and lead robust APIs, data models, and background services while contributing to modern, user-friendly web interfaces. You'll own features end-to-end, working closely with peers and cross-functional partners to clarify requirements, assess risks, and make trade-offs that support long-term quality.
Responsibilities:
- Design and deliver scalable, high-quality technical solutions aligned with business and product needs.
- Apply advanced technical expertise to solve complex engineering problems and improve system performance, reliability, and maintainability.
- Contribute to technical architecture by evaluating design options, defining technical approaches, and supporting long-term product direction.
- Lead complex technical initiatives from planning through implementation, deployment, and ongoing support.
- Identify opportunities to modernize systems, improve engineering practices, and introduce innovative technical solutions.
- Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders to clarify requirements, assess feasibility, and ensure successful delivery.
- Provide technical guidance, code reviews, and mentorship to strengthen engineering quality and team capability.
- Proactively identify technical risks, dependencies, and implementation challenges, and drive effective mitigation plans.
- Stay current with emerging technologies and recommend practical improvements that enhance product quality and team efficiency.
Requirements:
- 6+ years of experience in software development engineering.
- Solid proficiency in at least one modern programming language.
- Advanced proficiency in using modern AI tools to improve engineering productivity, code quality, problem-solving, and technical decision-making.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Strong hands-on experience with Python is a plus point, experience in RESTful API design, scalable service development, and secure, reliable back-end systems.
- Advanced knowledge of object-oriented design, software architecture patterns, databases, data modeling, performance tuning, and system scalability.
- Proven ability to lead technical design discussions, influence solution approaches, and mentor team members.
- Strong collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively with cross-functional partners, build trust, share knowledge, and support team goals.
- Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills in both Vietnamese and English, with the ability to design innovative solutions for complex AI-driven features.
Flexible Work:
- With Flex Work, we're combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote.
- Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work.
- 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).
