Are you ready to be audacious, be bold and drive change at a rapid pace? Join us, where we’ll make a greater impact together.

What You'll do:

Groundswell is seeking a highly skilled Workday Data Conversion Lead to lead the Data Conversion workstream for a complex Workday implementation supporting an Intelligence Community customer. This individual will be responsible for the end-to-end data conversion lifecycle and will work closely with Workday Configuration, Integration, Testing, Security, and other implementation workstreams to support successful deployment.

The Workday Data Conversion Lead will work with data owners and stakeholders across multiple client organizations to lead data extraction, mapping, harmonization, cleansing, transformation, validation, reconciliation, and conversion into Workday. This individual will coordinate the use of approved data conversion technologies and work with technology partners to manage platform, security, and cross-workstream dependencies. The role will also lead multiple Workday conversion cycles across secure customer environments.

The ideal candidate will combine deep Workday data conversion expertise, strong technical and data management skills, and workstream leadership experience to drive data quality, conversion readiness, and successful execution throughout the Workday implementation lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead the Data Conversion workstream for a complex Workday implementation, coordinating closely with Configuration, Integration, Testing, Security, and other implementation workstreams.
  • Develop and manage the data conversion strategy, plan, schedule, milestones, dependencies, and deliverables in alignment with the overall Workday implementation.
  • Coordinate with data owners and stakeholders across multiple client organizations to identify, extract, validate, and prepare source data for conversion.
  • Lead data profiling, mapping, harmonization, cleansing, transformation, validation, and reconciliation activities.
  • Leverage approved data conversion technologies and tools to prepare legacy data for migration into Workday.
  • Coordinate with technology partners to manage platform availability, security requirements, and dependencies that may impact data conversion activities.
  • Plan, coordinate, and support multiple Workday data loads and conversion cycles across secure customer environments.
  • Partner with Workday Configuration and Integration teams to ensure converted data aligns with configuration decisions, integration requirements, and overall solution design.
  • Coordinate data validation and reconciliation with client data owners and Workday functional teams throughout each conversion cycle.
  • Identify and manage data conversion risks, issues, and cross-workstream dependencies, escalating broader implementation impacts to the Workday Delivery Lead.
  • Ensure sensitive data is handled in accordance with applicable Federal, customer, and program security requirements throughout the conversion lifecycle.
  • Maintain required data conversion documentation, mappings, validation results, reconciliation artifacts, and implementation deliverables.
  • Lead and coordinate Data Conversion team members and provide regular status on workstream progress, milestones, risks, dependencies, and readiness.

Work Location & Travel Requirements:

  • Must be local to the Washington, DC metropolitan area (or willing to relocate) and willing to work onsite within customer SCIF environments 3-4 days per week.
  • Approximately 5% travel within the Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) region is required.

Required Qualifications:

  • U.S. Citizenship required per contract requirements.
  • Ability to obtain and maintain a government Top Secret security clearance with SCI favorability and Counterintelligence (CI) polygraph, as required by contract. Candidates who currently hold an active TS/SCI clearance with CI Polygraph will receive priority consideration.
  • Bachelor's degree in information technology, Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • 10+ years of experience supporting HRIS, HCM, ERP, or enterprise technology implementations, with significant experience in data conversion, migration, or integration.
  • 5+ years of Workday implementation experience, including experience leading data conversion activities through multiple implementation phases.
  • Experience leading the end-to-end data conversion workstream for at least two large-scale Workday implementations.
  • Current Workday HCM Data Loading Services Certification.
  • Strong understanding of Workday data conversion tools, methodologies, data loading processes, and implementation lifecycle.
  • Demonstrated experience with data profiling, mapping, harmonization, cleansing, transformation, validation, and reconciliation.
  • Experience planning and executing multiple data conversion cycles and Workday data loads through testing, deployment, and go-live.
  • Experience converting data from multiple legacy systems and managing complex source-to-target data mappings.
  • Experience working directly with business and technical data owners to define data requirements, resolve data quality issues, and validate converted data.
  • Strong understanding of ETL processes, data quality practices, and data reconciliation techniques.
  • Proficiency with SQL, data analysis, and data conversion or transformation tools.
  • Experience coordinating data conversion activities with functional configuration, integration, testing, and other implementation workstreams.
  • Demonstrated experience leading teams and managing cross-workstream dependencies, risks, issues, and delivery milestones.
  • Strong customer-facing, communication, problem-solving, and stakeholder management skills.
  • Experience handling sensitive data within secure or regulated environments.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience supporting Federal government, Department of Defense (DoD), and/or Intelligence Community (IC) Workday implementations.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
