Middleware Collaboration: Partner with SAP Integration Suite (CPI) and Informatica IICS teams to troubleshoot interface failures, trace messages, validate payloads, and resolve mapping and data-quality issues.
Testing & Quality Assurance: Plan and execute unit, system integration, regression, and end-to-end testing for hires, rehires, transfers, global assignments, concurrent employment, terminations, and retroactive changes.
Production Support & Governance: Investigate integration incidents, identify root causes, implement corrective actions, maintain integration documentation, and provide formal HRIS sign-off with supporting test evidence.
Workday Transition Support: Assess existing integrations, document business and technical requirements, support mapping redesign, evaluate integration options, and participate in parallel testing, migration, and cutover activities.
Stakeholder Management: Coordinate with HR, Payroll, IT, middleware developers, and vendor partners to resolve dependencies, manage changes, and ensure integrations meet business and compliance requirements.
