Workday Data Conversion Specialist

100% Remote

Contract

Role Overview

We are seeking a highly technical, hands-on Data Migration Consultant to support critical phases of our Workday implementation. This role is pivotal in ensuring data integrity as we bridge the gap between our legacy Infor Lawson system and Workday HCM & Payroll.

The ideal candidate possesses a deep understanding of Lawson data structures and the technical expertise to write complex SQL scripts that capture delta changes for Workday EIB (Enterprise Interface Builder) consumption.

Key Responsibilities

• Write, maintain, and execute SQL scripts to identify and extract HCM and Payroll data changes (deltas) between specific cutoff dates in Infor Lawson
• Produce clean, accurately formatted CSV files that align with Workday EIB requirements.
• Analyze Infor Lawson data related to employee life cycle, job architecture, compensation, benefits, and payroll to ensure logic consistency.
• Partner with functional leads and technical teams to confirm cutoff logic, validate data accuracy, and ensure successful hand-offs for Workday loading.
• Actively identify, troubleshoot, and resolve data discrepancies or logic gaps during the catch-up testing phases.

Qualifications & Skills

• Advanced SQL skills are a must. You should be comfortable navigating complex legacy databases to perform precise data extractions.
• Direct experience with Infor Lawson (HCM & Payroll modules) is required. You must understand how Lawson data maps to modern SaaS environments.
• A solid understanding of Workday EIBs and general data expectations (templates, required fields, and formatting) is essential.
• Functional understanding of HR and Payroll business processes (e.g., how a mid-period compensation change affects payroll data).
• Proven ability to work independently, manage tight "catch-up" deadlines, and maintain extreme attention to detail.
