[Hiring] Solutions Architect, Business Technology Security @DoorDash

Role Description

The DoorDash Architecture and Security team is looking for a Solutions Architect, Business Technology Security with demonstrated experience and knowledge in Workday Security. This role owns the strategy and design of Workday security architecture, and ensures it translates correctly into the custom, in-house tools and dashboards built downstream of it. This is a strategy and design-focused role so success here depends heavily on your ability to gather clear requirements, write them up well, and communicate design decisions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. You will interact directly with senior leaders and cross-functional partners across DoorDash to capture requirements and design lasting, secure solutions that hold up across the full ecosystem.

This role will report to the Sr. Manager, Architecture and Security.

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

• Own the strategy and design of Workday’s security architecture — data models, security groups, domains, and business process security — that serves as DoorDash’s security source of truth for the People organization.
• Translate that architecture into clear requirements and design documentation that our build team can implement, and that downstream custom tools and dashboards can be built against safely.
• Review new or proposed custom tooling and downstream reporting needs to identify security touchpoints and data access implications before they’re built, advising on the right design approach.
• Partner with process owners to define data security policies, protocols, and procedures that protect sensitive HR data across Workday and downstream systems.
• Conduct regular audits and risk assessments across Workday and the tools and reporting layers downstream of it, maintaining a forward-looking security and data classification roadmap.
• Serve as the subject matter expert on security, data, and reporting capabilities and limitations, communicating trade-offs clearly to both build teams and non-technical business stakeholders.

Qualifications

• You have 5-7 years of work experience in HRIS implementation and configuration, both domestic and international, with deep expertise in Workday Security.
• You have extensive experience with one or more Workday HCM modules (Core HCM, Reporting, Payroll, Time & Labor, Compensation, Talent Management, Absence Management) and understand how their security models interact.
• You are an excellent requirements writer — you can turn an ambiguous business or security need into a clear, detailed design or requirements document that another team can build from without having to guess your intent.
• You have experience translating Workday security and data architecture into requirements for downstream, custom-built tools and reporting systems.
• You have a BA/BS degree in a quantitative or business field, or equivalent work experience.
• You have excellent written and verbal communication skills, comfortable presenting design recommendations to senior stakeholders and handing off clear specs to a separate engineering or build team.

Requirements

• We expect this position to be filled by 01/14.
