A large, growing, multibillion-dollar national retailer is adding a hands‑on Workday HR Technology Analyst to its HR Technology team. This is a true configuration and ownership role, not project management and not a ticket‑queue position. You will own Workday functionality behind the scenes: building, configuring, testing, and continuously improving the platform so HR services run smoothly across the organization.

If you are a Workday configurator who likes to build, take ownership, and improve the system rather than just maintain it, this one is for you.
