ABOUT THE TEAM
Workday's AI Platform builds the system of record for AI agents: the registry where Workday and partner agents are described, owned, versioned and managed. As enterprises put agents to work on HR and finance processes, customers need to know what each agent is, who is responsible for it, and whether it can be trusted. This team helps answer those questions, working alongside Workday Agent Passport, which gives agents verifiable credentials and attestations.
ABOUT THE ROLE
As Senior Manager of Agent Trust & Security, you will lead an engineering team building the security foundations of Workday's agent registry: how agents are identified, how they connect to Workday's security model, and how customers can verify what they're running. This is a hands-on technical leadership role. You review designs and code, you build with AI code generation every day, and you bring product judgment to what the team builds.
In this role, you will:
- Lead, hire and grow a team of software engineers, including senior and principal engineers, and set a high bar for security engineering, design quality and pace.
- Shape how agents are identified, authenticated and authorized across the registry, building on Workday's security model and standards such as OAuth.
- Work with the Agent Passport team on agent identity, credentials and verification, so customers can trust which agent is running and what has been verified about it.
- Bring product judgment: understand how customer administrators and security teams think about agents, and work with product management to decide what the team builds.
- Partner with peer teams across the agent registry, agent gateway and Agent Passport, and with Workday security, so that security works consistently across the platform.
- Make AI code generation central to how the team builds, and measure whether it is improving speed and quality.
- Turn direction into written plans with dated milestones, and raise risks early.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
- 10+ years of software engineering experience, including 5+ years leading and developing engineering teams that shipped and operated production services.
- 3+ years of hands-on experience with security-critical systems such as authentication, authorization, identity, or security platforms.
OTHER QUALIFICATIONS:
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related discipline; equivalent practical experience also considered.
- Strong, current hands-on use of AI code generation tools, and experience leading a team that builds with them.
- Working knowledge of OAuth, workload and service identity, and access control models. Experience with signed credentials, attestation or verifiable credentials is a plus.
- Product sense: experience working directly with customers, or as a technical lead who shaped a security or identity product alongside product management.
- Experience with AI agent platforms or protocols such as MCP or A2A, or with LLM applications in production.
- Track record of predictable delivery across teams with shared dependencies.
- Track record of hiring and developing senior and principal engineers, including a team split across locations.
- Experience with multi-tenant enterprise SaaS. Workday platform experience is a plus.
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain a security design to engineers, customers and executives.

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.
Pursuant to applicable Fair Chance law, Workday will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.
Workday is an Equal Opportunity Employer including individuals with disabilities and protected veterans.
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.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Workday Visa Sponsorship Jobs USA
Target engineering and product roles first
Workday's core business is enterprise software, so software engineering, product management, and data roles are where sponsorship is most common. Prioritize these functions when applying and tailor your application to Workday's cloud platform focus.
Understand which visa types Workday supports
Workday sponsors H-1B, TN, and F-1 OPT and CPT, making it accessible for students and early-career professionals. If you're on OPT, applying before your authorization expires gives you the best shot at an H-1B transition.
Leverage Workday's Green Card track record
Workday has a strong pattern of supporting employees through the Green Card process via EB-2 and EB-3 categories. When interviewing, it's reasonable to ask about their permanent residence sponsorship process for long-term planning.
Apply to roles aligned with Workday's product areas
Workday's hiring centers on HCM, financial management, and cloud infrastructure. Candidates whose backgrounds align with these product verticals are more likely to land roles that receive sponsorship, so highlight relevant domain experience clearly in your resume.
Time your application around Workday's hiring cycles
As an active H-1B sponsor, Workday typically recruits ahead of the April lottery window. Apply in the preceding months so hiring managers have time to evaluate you before sponsorship decisions need to be made. Migrate Mate surfaces verified sponsors so you can filter by real sponsorship history.
Highlight enterprise software experience in your application
Workday competes for specialized talent in ERP, HCM, and cloud computing. Demonstrating hands-on experience with enterprise platforms strengthens your case as a high-value candidate worth sponsoring, which matters to any technology company evaluating sponsorship costs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Workday sponsor H-1B visas?
Yes, Workday sponsors H-1B visas and has done so consistently across multiple hiring cycles. Sponsorship is most common in technical roles such as software engineering, data engineering, and product development. Workday is considered an active H-1B sponsor in the enterprise technology sector, making it a realistic target for international candidates in those fields.
Which visa types does Workday sponsor?
Workday sponsors H-1B visas for specialty occupation workers, Green Cards through the EB-2 and EB-3 employment-based categories, and work authorization for F-1 students on OPT and CPT. TN visas are also supported for eligible Canadian and Mexican nationals. This range of visa types makes Workday accessible to candidates at different stages of their immigration journey.
Which departments or roles at Workday are most likely to receive visa sponsorship?
Sponsorship at Workday is concentrated in technical and product-focused roles, particularly software engineering, machine learning, data science, and cloud infrastructure. Workday's core product areas, including HCM and financial management software, drive significant demand for specialized talent that the domestic market alone cannot fill, which is where most sponsored positions are found.
How do I improve my chances of getting sponsored by Workday?
Focus your application on roles directly tied to Workday's core products, such as cloud platform development, enterprise application engineering, or data analytics. Workday recruits ahead of the H-1B lottery, so applying several months before April increases your chances. Use Migrate Mate to find open positions at verified sponsors like Workday and filter by the visa types you need.
How do I know if a specific Workday role includes visa sponsorship?
Not every role at Workday includes sponsorship, and availability can differ by team or seniority level. The most reliable approach is to ask directly during the recruiter screen, since sponsorship decisions are made at the hiring manager level. Workday's overall track record as an active sponsor signals institutional willingness, but confirming sponsorship for your specific role early avoids wasted effort.
