About the Team The Decision Intelligence Platform team is an integrated Product and Engineering organization within Workday’s Planning Business Unit. The team owns all the components of the “DecisionOS.” You will work alongside peer teams responsible for the Planning Core and Workforce Intelligence applications. About the Role The Opportunity: Building the Decision Intelligence Platform Workday Adaptive Planning, with over 7,000 customers worldwide, is Workday's flagship product for financial and HR planning. 20 years ago Adaptive disrupted the established EPM category by moving it to the Cloud. Today, thanks to the transformational power of AI, we're doing it again by creating a new category and multi-billion dollar market: Decision Intelligence. FP&A is shifting from data wrangling and reporting to continuous decision orchestration. Our mission is to deliver an agentic planning and analytics platform that enables everyone to navigate any decision domain with confidence. The Role: AI-Native Product Leader We are looking for an AI-native product leader who is ready to take the next step — someone who has gone deep into AI and agentic systems and is now ready to scale a business and organization around them. This is a focused, singular mandate: realize the Decision Intelligence Platform. You will lead an integrated Product and Engineering team to deliver customer-validated Decision Intelligence use case flows, drive adoption, and establish Workday as the leader in AI-powered planning and analytics. Your job is to build the future — fast — while earning the trust of finance buyers who operate in deterministic, audit-driven environments. Responsibilities Your mandate is concentrated on delivering and scaling the Decision Intelligence Platform: 1. Deliver Customer-Validated Decision Intelligence Workflows End-to-End Use Case Ownership: Own the full lifecycle of Decision Intelligence use case flows — from problem discovery through design partner selection, iterative build, and production deployment. Customers will not reward us for capabilities; they will reward us for end-to-end outcomes. Roadmap & Strategy: Drive the product strategy and execution for the Planning Agent (including skills for Data Exploration, Variance Analysis, Scenario Planning, KPI Monitoring, and Self-Service); define the boundary between governed planning and ungoverned exploration, and ensure seamless handoff between the two. Rapid Experimentation: Run hypothesis-driven development with formal evaluation plans, telemetry instrumentation, and fast iteration loops. Move from demo to proven value quickly. 2. Drive Commercial Success Commercial Architecture: Partner with leaders across Workday and within the Planning Business Unit to define how we monetize Decision Intelligence. Own the product side of the Adaptive Planning Pro subscription, including tiered packaging, Flex Credit economics, and value-based pricing models that capture the ROI of agentic planning. GTM Partnership: Partner with Product Marketing and Sales to define the narrative, equip the field with proof points and reference customers, and demo flows needed to close early customers and drive meaningful ACV. MCP/A2A & Ecosystem: Drive enterprise ecosystem integration via MCP/A2A, enabling Decision Intelligence to show up in Sana, third-party agent platforms, and customer workflows wherever decisions are made. 3. Build Trust for AI in Finance Governance & Observability: You are introducing probabilistic AI into deterministic Finance. Build the guardrails, audit trails, and observability frameworks that give CFOs confidence to adopt these tools. Ensure every agent action is traceable, explainable
