About this role
About the Role Workday is seeking a Sr. Principal Technical Program Manager (P6) to serve as a primary strategic driver for our M&A technology portfolio. In this high-visibility role, you will guide cross-functional teams from due diligence through post-close integration, delivering measurable value and scalable solutions. What You'll Do
- Lead the planning and execution of Workday's most complex, cross-functional M&A integration programs, from initial due diligence through post-close stabilization.
- Represent BT as an embedded partner during due diligence, surface technical, architectural, and organizational risk before deal terms are finalized, and inform go/no-go and integration-cost decisions pre-signing.
- Own integration planning and execution across the full technology surface area—including GTM and CRM systems (e.g., Salesforce), infrastructure and security, employee experience, and customer-facing enablement (customer zero, new offer/SKU launch).
- Exercise independent judgment in methods and evaluation criteria for achieving results in environments with significant organizational friction and shifting deal dynamics.
- Curate, drive, and refine repeatable M&A playbooks to codify lessons learned and accelerate future integrations.
- Act as the final arbiter of trade-offs between speed, cost, and quality guiding critical integration decisions.
- Resolve complex issues and design considerations that arise between legacy systems and Workday standards, prioritizing scalability and regulatory compliance.
- Create and maintain formal networks across Corporate Development, GTM/Sales Operations, Engineering, Legal, Security, and Finance to ensure execution is connected to measurable value realization.
- Provide outcome-focused, executive-facing reporting to sponsors, translating integration health metrics into actionable technical strategies. What We're Looking For
- 12+ years of program experience leading large-scale, cross-functional initiatives with the ability to influence at the executive level.
- 6+ years of Merger and Acquisition experience engaging in pre-close activities (due diligence, risk assessment, integration planning) in addition to post-close execution.
- 6+ years of experience in both technical/infrastructure integration and business systems integration (CRM/GTM enablement, customer-facing product launches).
- 10+ years in enterprise SaaS, cloud, or high-growth technology environments.
- Ability to influence and align executive-level stakeholders across diverse functions to achieve long-term M&A goals.
- Deep understanding of the Workday architecture and dependencies required to maintain compliance and scale in a multi-tenant environment.
- Track record of mentoring teams and developing talent to drive program success. Compensation & Benefits
- Salary and benefits not disclosed in the job posting.
