About the Team InfraSec Innovation is the engineering arm of Infrastructure Security - building the secure-by-default controls and paved roads that protect our private and public cloud. We sit alongside InfraSec Reliability (Ops) and Enablement (Product & Portfolio Management), partnering tightly with Platform/Service Owners, Networking, Identity, Cybersecurity, and Compliance to ship guardrails that scale across regions and services. The team owns the full lifecycle—design, build, ship, operationalize, and evidence - with an automation-first stack (IaC, policy-as-code, CI/CD) and clear SLOs for control availability and signal quality. We’re a low-ego, hands-on group that measures outcomes, fixes root causes, and makes the secure path the easiest path. About the Role The Senior Manager, InfraSec Innovation (Engineering) leads the team that turns our infrastructure security strategy into  shipped, operable controls  for Workday’s private and public cloud. You’ll partner with the InfraSec Product Owner on  what  to build and own  how  it gets built—coaching engineers, setting standards, and delivering secure-by-default “paved roads” that scale across regions and services. Success looks like predictable delivery, strong SLOs, clean audit evidence, and guardrails that make the secure path the easiest path. Responsibilities: Lead, coach, and grow a high-performing security engineering team; drive hiring, career development, and performance. Own the delivery lifecycle for security controls (design → build → ship → operationalize → evidence) across cloud, platform, and container/K8s layers. Serve as Agile Leader: plan increments/sprints, manage capacity, remove blockers, and ensure Definition of Ready/Done. Build secure-by-default “paved roads” (modules, APIs, policy-as-code) that simplify adoption for platform and product teams. Engineer for operability with InfraSec Reliability (Ops): define SLOs, on-call readiness, runbooks, dashboards, and incident playbooks. Partner with Product Owner, Platform and Service Owners, Cybersecurity, Networking, Identity, and Compliance to prioritize highest-value outcomes and close risk. Advance automation and quality: IaC, CI/CD, policy-as-code, telemetry/observability, and data pipelines for better signal fidelity. Steward platforms and integrations (e.g., CNAPP/CSPM, KMS/PKI, EDR, runtime protections) including upgrades and migrations with minimal impact. Establish reference architectures, golden patterns, and secure defaults; enforce standards through code and reviews. Measure what matters: delivery predictability, control SLO attainment, detection coverage/quality, change failure rate, MTTM/MTTR. About You You’re an engineering-first security leader who turns strategy into shipped, operable controls. You’ve built teams, paved roads, and scalable guardrails for private and public clouds (AWS, GCP, Azure) and Kubernetes platforms and you measure success with SLOs, clean audit evidence, and predictable delivery. You’re as comfortable coaching engineers and removing blockers as you are diving into Terraform, policy-as-code, or a CI/CD pipeline to keep outcomes moving. Basic Qualifications 10+ years in cybersecurity/platform engineering with 4+ years leading engineers/tech leads; 2+ years managing other managers. Proven track record designing, building, and operating cloud security controls at enterprise scale (AWS/Azure/GCP) and Kubernetes. Hands-on with IaC and automation (e.g., Terraform), policy-as-code (e.g., OPA), CI/CD, and at least one language (Python or similar). Bachelor’s degree in CS, Cybersecurity, or related field; Master’s or equivalent practical experience preferred. Other Qualifications Experience leading teams that build secure-by-default “paved roads” (modules, APIs, guardrails) adopted by platform/product teams. Depth in one or more: identity & secrets, KMS/PKI, network segmentation/zero trust, container/runtime protections, vuln/config management. Familiarity with CNAPP/CSPM/EDR ecosystems and stewarding upgrades/migrations with minimal business impact. Operability mindset: define/track SLOs, create runbooks & dashboards, prepare on-call rotations, and drive incident readiness. Strong partnership skills with Product, Service, SOC, Platform, Networking, Identity, and Compliance to prioritize high-value outcomes. Comfortable in regulated environments (e.g., FedRAMP, SOC 2, ISO 27001); “evidence as you go” practices for audits. Excellent communication and influence—able to align senior leadership and cross-functional teams around clear, measurable goals. Budget/resource stewardship and an eye for continuous improvement: throughput, change failure rate, MTTM/MTTR, and signal quality. 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. Are you being referred to one of our roles? If so, ask your connection at Workday about our Employee Referral process! At Workday, we value our candidates’ privacy and data security.  Workday will never ask candidates to apply to jobs through websites that are not Workday Careers.     Please be aware of sites that may ask for you to input your data in connection with a job posting that appears to be from Workday but is not.    In addition, Workday will never ask candidates to pay a recruiting fee, or pay for consulting or coaching services, in order to apply for a job at Workday.
