** About the Team
** The Developer Platform Product Management team at Workday drives the product vision and strategy for one of our greatest differentiators: the technology platform that was purpose-built for the cloud. Product managers here are involved in every aspect of the product lifecycle — from crafting features that delight customers, to evangelizing improvements across internal and external audiences, to obsessing over the details that make an outstanding end product.

We are growing fast, and we are looking for people who combine strategic vision with a record of getting high-demand products to market.
** About the Role
** The Developer Platform is an embedded platform-as-a-service (PaaS) built on highly scalable cloud backend infrastructure and AI capabilities, enabling enterprise applications, AI agents, and core integrations to run securely and reliably.

As a Senior Product Manager on the Developer Core Services team, you will serve as a strategic product lead responsible for building and scaling the core backend infrastructure and platform foundation that empowers developers. You will lead cross-functional execution across backend engineering teams, drive architectural evolutions, and deliver high-throughput distributed services, application lifecycle management, telemetry pipelines, and infrastructure APIs that underpin the entire developer experience.

Key Responsibilities:

* Strategic Infrastructure Roadmap & Core Services Ownership:
Define, own, and maintain a multi-quarter product roadmap for core backend services—treating internal platform architecture as a product by gathering technical requirements from engineering and system architects to drive platform scalability and resilience.
* Cross-Functional Orchestration:
Partner deeply with development teams, partners, system integrators, and internal engineering groups to align technical dependencies and unlock platform velocity.
* Multi-Team Delivery Ownership:
Operate as a Senior PM lead guiding multiple scrum teams. Drive end-to-end product delivery from design, and spikes through testing, rollout, and post-launch optimization.
* Scalable Backend

Infrastructure: Architect resilient, high-availability distributed systems and core APIs that power high-volume transactions and seamlessly support downstream developer experience tooling and agentic AI workflows.
* Architectural & Operational Governance:
Lead technical and business trade-off discussions…
