Workday Integration Developer – Canadian Tire – Toronto, ON

Canadian Tire Corporation is looking for a skilled Workday Integration Developer to join its Workday & HR Platforms team at its Toronto office at 2300 Yonge Street. This is a full-time, permanent role for a technically minded professional who wants to work at the intersection of HR technology and enterprise systems for one of Canada’s largest and most recognized retailers.

In this position, you’ll be responsible for the full integration lifecycle — from design through to production support — connecting Workday with a wide range of enterprise systems including payroll, benefits, workforce management, identity management, and external vendors. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams across HR, Technology, Payroll, Security, and Solutions Architecture to deliver reliable, scalable, and compliant HR data solutions.

About the Role: Workday Integration Developer

Reporting to the Chapter Manager, Workday & HR Platforms, the Workday Integration Developer is accountable for designing, building, testing, deploying, and supporting integrations across Canadian Tire Corporation’s Workday ecosystem. The role enables secure and reliable HR data movement between Workday and connected enterprise systems, covering everything from payroll and benefits to time and absence, workforce management, reporting, and downstream applications.

You’ll be expected to operate within Canadian Tire’s formal IT governance framework — participating in change management, incident response, audit activities, and production deployment processes. Collaboration is central to success in this role, as you’ll regularly partner with HR functional teams, Information Security, Enterprise Technology, and third-party vendors to ensure integrations remain stable, compliant, and maintainable.

Benefits and Salary

Canadian Tire offers a salary range of $64,000 to $106,000 per year for this role, with the final offer based on your experience, skills, and competencies. In addition to competitive compensation, the company provides comprehensive benefits and retirement programs, performance incentives, continuing education programs, career growth opportunities, product discounts, and other perks to support your overall well-being. As part of the enhanced flex benefits program, employees and their families have access to $5,000 per year in mental health benefits, along with the Canadian Tire Profit Sharing program for eligible employees.

Responsibilities

The day-to-day work of a Workday Integration Developer at Canadian Tire is hands-on and technically demanding. You’ll be responsible for the full integration lifecycle — from gathering requirements and writing design specs, to building, testing, deploying, and supporting integrations in a live production environment. These integrations underpin critical HR data flows across the entire corporation, making accuracy, reliability, and security non-negotiable priorities.

• Design and build inbound and outbound Workday integrations supporting HR, payroll, benefits, time and absence, workforce management, security, reporting, and vendor data flows
• Develop integrations using Enterprise Interface Builder (EIB), Core Connectors, Workday Studio, Report-as-a-Service (RaaS), custom reports, calculated fields, Document Transformation, and Workday Web Services
• Translate requirements into technical integration designs, data mappings, transformation logic, test plans, deployment plans, and support documentation
• Provide production support for scheduled and event-driven integrations, including monitoring, alert review, incident triage, error analysis, file delivery validation, and stakeholder communication
• Troubleshoot integration failures, data discrepancies, authentication issues, file transmission errors, and vendor-reported defects; perform root cause analysis and implement sustainable fixes
• Implement secure data exchange patterns, including integration system users, domain security, security groups, PGP encryption, SFTP, web services, certificates, and least-privilege access principles
• Create and maintain integration design documents, mapping specifications, runbooks, support procedures, test evidence, issue logs, release notes, and knowledge base content
• Support Workday release readiness by assessing release notes, coordinating regression testing, validating impacted integrations, and resolving release-related defects
• Participate in change, incident, problem, audit, privacy, and production deployment activities in alignment with CTC governance and operational standards

Requirements / Skills

This role is best suited to a technically grounded developer who has real production experience with Workday integrations and a solid grasp of enterprise IT practices. Canadian Tire values candidates who can work independently on complex technical problems while also communicating clearly with non-technical stakeholders across HR and the business. Attention to data quality, privacy, and compliance is essential given the sensitive nature of the employee information involved.

• 3–5 years of hands-on experience developing, enhancing, testing, deploying, and supporting Workday integrations in a production HR technology environment
• Practical experience with Workday integration tools such as EIB, Core Connectors, Workday Studio, RaaS, custom reports, calculated fields, Document Transformation, and Workday Web Services
• Strong understanding of integration technologies including XML, XSLT, XPath, SOAP, REST, JSON, SFTP, PGP encryption, authentication, certificates, scheduling, logging, and error handling
• Experience with Workday HCM functional areas such as Core HCM, Time Tracking, Absence, Benefits, Recruiting, Learning, Workday Scheduling, payroll processes, or Workforce Management
• Understanding of Workday security concepts, including integration system users, security groups, domain security policies, business process security, and role-based access controls
• Experience working within formal IT practices, including incident, change, release, testing, audit support, and operational documentation
• Strong documentation and communication skills, with the ability to translate technical details into support procedures, stakeholder updates, and knowledge base materials
• Experience in a large Canadian enterprise, retail, or multi-banner environment is considered an asset; knowledge of Dayforce and Workday Pro certifications are also assets
