About the role
At Kognitiv Inc., we’re redefining what it means to be a Workday partner. As one of the fastest-growing companies in the ecosystem, we bring deep expertise, innovative thinking, and a people-first mindset to everything we do. We’re not just building better Workday solutions—we’re building a company where talented people thrive.
Ready to do your best work? Join us.
We are seeking a technical powerhouse confident in leading Workday Adaptive Planning implementations and high-stakes initiatives from start to finish with limited supervision.
If you operate with a "think like an owner" mentality, thrive on solving high-complexity architectural puzzles, and want to mentor rising talent while seeing the direct impact of your work daily, you belong here.
What You’ll Do
Architect Complex Solutions: Design and configure multi-dimensional models, sheets, and dashboards that handle the intricacies of global business.
Bridge the Ecosystem: Ensure seamless data integrity by aligning Adaptive Planning with Workday HCM and Financial Management.
Lead the Full Lifecycle: Take full ownership of medium-to-large projects (Acquisitions, Phase X, etc.) from initial scoping and discovery through to Go-Live.
Master the Data Flow: Architect integrations between Workday and external data sources using advanced ETL methodologies.
Elevate the Team: Act as a hands-on mentor for less experienced consultants, contributing to our internal knowledge base and refining our "Kognitiv Point of View."
Technical Skills:
Adaptive Modeling Mastery: Extensive, direct hands-on experience configuring within an Adaptive instance (sheet modeling, structure modeling, and creating sophisticated OfficeConnect reports). Note: While an FP&A background is a plus, end-user experience alone is not sufficient.
Workday Report Writing: Working knowledge and comfort writing Workday reports to fetch ledger account, level, dimension, attribute, income statement, balance sheet, and position data.
Integration Prowess: Hands-on experience architecting integrations (including "Power of One") between Workday, HCM, Financials, and external data sources.
Advanced Excel Skills: You are an Excel wizard; it is the foundation of everything we build.
Leadership & Soft Skills:
Leadership Grit: The ability to autonomously manage multiple, parallel projects with high complexity without needing a roadmap handed to you.
Communication & Teamwork: Exceptional communication skills with a genuine willingness to coach, support, and mentor junior consultants.
