HR Tech • SaaS • Enterprise

Dayforce is a cloud-based human capital management (HCM) platform (developed by Ceridian) that provides payroll, workforce management (time and attendance, scheduling), HR, benefits administration, talent management, and analytics in a single SaaS solution for employers. It is used by organizations to manage employee lifecycle, pay, and compliance from a unified system.

📋 Description

• Supporting the Infrastructure Architect, design and evolve Azure infrastructure across our footprint (Azure Functions, API Management, Service Bus, SQL Managed Instance, Cosmos DB, Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, Entra ID, Power BI, and emerging AKS), emphasizing scalability, resilience, cost, IaC, and security. • Champion cloud-native, composable design — event-driven and API-first patterns, containerization/orchestration, and infrastructure-as-code — and produce reference architectures for integration, messaging, identity, observability, and environment topology. • Support data governance, lineage, and master data management practices as the data lakehouse foundation mature. • Partner with the Data Architect and data delivery team to stand up the foundational data lakehouse on Microsoft Fabric/Databricks/Snowflake, contributing patterns for ingestion, storage, modeling, and BI/analytics enablement (Power BI). • Apply modern integration patterns (APIs, event-driven services, microservices) where they advance the composable target state and support the Solution Architect with cross-domain designs, POCs, Data Contracts, and AI-assisted documentation. • Curate and clarify business and technical requirements, model business/system processes (e.g., BPMN), contribute to capability mapping, and facilitate Joint Application Design (JAD) sessions when needed. • Contribute, as a peer, to cross-domain architecture governance — shared standards, patterns, and guardrails — and act as a subject-matter expert helping delivery teams (employees and contractors) correctly apply established designs. • Evaluate and enable AI capabilities, including agentic AI and AI-assisted development, favoring enterprise-governed, self-hosted platforms. • Provide hands-on design and prototyping (POCs, infrastructure-as-code, reference implementations), perform SWOT/trade-off analyses, and partner with vendors to evaluate and integrate capabilities; sustained production feature development is not the primary expectation. • Design solutions that protect sensitive family, student, and financial data and meet security and compliance requirements, and articulate complex concepts clearly to technical and business audiences.

🎯 Requirements

• Demonstrated success and a proven track record in professional/life experience in specific job functions, projects, or industries. Military service can substitute for professional experience and/or formal education requirements. • 12+ years in technology roles with depth in at least two architecture domains (cloud infrastructure, data, solution/integration, or business/process) and a record of delivering scalable, production-grade solutions; 5+ years in a lead or senior architectural role influencing design across teams through expertise rather than authority. • Hands-on Azure architecture experience across services such as Azure Functions, API Management, Service Bus, SQL Managed Instance, Cosmos DB, Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, Entra ID, and Power BI (AKS a plus). • Working knowledge of data architecture (modeling, pipelines, lakehouse/warehouse) and cloudnative, composable patterns (API-first, event-driven, microservices, infrastructure-as-code). • Experience curating requirements and modeling business/system processes (e.g., BPMN) and facilitating cross-functional design sessions. • Demonstrated success and a proven track record in professional/life experience in specific job functions, projects, or industries, and military service can substitute for formal education requirements.

🏖️ Benefits

• Enjoy medical, dental, and vision coverage, plus HSA, FSA, and Lifestyle Spending Accounts. • We also offer a competitive 401(k) with company match to help you plan for the future. • Remote work options and unique time-off programs—including 14 paid holidays, Care and Parental Leave, and our Flexible Leave policy. • From mentorship programs to management training and professional development opportunities, we invest in your career journey every step of the way. • Our dedicated coaching team is here to help you succeed, and employee-led committees give you a voice in shaping our workplace. Collaboration isn’t just encouraged, it’s how we work.
