About the Team

The Workday Adapting Planning team is growing! We design and build business planning products that thousands of customers love to use. We are the fastest growing product at Workday, and we’re passionate about solving enterprise-scale problems in a quick-paced, fast-scaling environment. We are also passionate about innovation and not only demonstrate this in our technology and tools, but also in how we work. As dedicated as we are to bringing industry-leading solutions to life for our customers, we also care for each other on a personal level and try not to take ourselves too seriously. For that, we add serious helpings of laughter and chat to every workday and celebrate each other's successes in work and life.

About the Role

As a Product Manager - Adaptive Planning, you'll collaborate with Workday’s business Product Owners, customers, partners, development teams including architecture, consultants, operations, and product teams to understand their desired business outcomes and priorities.

  • Lead technical discussions with key internal and external stakeholders / 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.

What you need to know about the Chennai Tech Scene

To locals, it's no secret that South India is leading the charge in big data infrastructure. While the environmental impact of data centers has long been a concern, emerging hubs like Chennai are favored by companies seeking ready access to renewable energy resources, which provide more sustainable and cost-effective solutions. As a result, Chennai, along with neighboring Bengaluru and Hyderabad, is poised for significant growth, with a projected 65 percent increase in data center capacity over the next decade.
