About the Team
The Payroll AI Team is redefining the future of Payroll and leading the way with one of the first Workday-built AI Agents. We work cross-functionally with AI and application teams including product leaders, machine learning engineers, and full-stack builders to build intelligent agent skills used by millions of people every day. This is production-grade AI—deeply embedded into Workday’s platform—not research experiments or maintenance work. Teams own problems end to end, collaborate tightly across teams, and use the right tools to solve real customer challenges at global scale. You’ll work at the intersection of AI, platform architecture, and human workflows, with the autonomy to shape how the Payroll Agent reason, act, and scale responsibly. High trust, high expectations, and real impact.
About the Role
As a Senior Product Manager in Payroll AI, you’ll be part of the team that leads strategy and delivery of AI-powered features and skills for Payroll Agent that are developed to be understood, trusted, and adopted by customers at global scale. You’ll own projects across the Payroll Agent lifecycle—from defining the customer problem and value proposition, to shaping the platforms and frameworks that enable Workday teams to bring agent skills to market quickly and consistently. Working closely with machine learning, engineering, numerous frameworks teams, and payroll domain product leaders, you’ll turn emerging AI capabilities into clear product narratives, scalable solutions, and measurable customer impact. This role calls for strong product judgment, a bias for execution, and deep curiosity about how AI can be translated into differentiated experiences that drive real business outcomes with continued interest in Payroll and Workday’s products. You’ll help define how Workday positions, builds, and delivers next-generation Payroll with AI and agents—ensuring innovation lands with clarity, credibility, and purpose. Lead functional and technical discussions with key internal and external partners / customers.

Our Approach to 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). 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.
