Our products are part of our 20 year mission to enable trust between people and businesses in the digital age.

We are looking for a System Owner (f/m/d) Workday to be the interface between our People Systems Team and our internal stakeholders. Your primary responsibility in this role will be to drive the implementation and evolution of the Workday system across our organisation, ensuring that the needs and requirements of our internal customers are met.

What your role's responsibilities will be:

You will develop the vision and strategy for our Workday, taking into account the needs and requirements of our internal customers and available resources.
Working with the People Systems team, you will create and maintain the roadmap and communicate it to stakeholders
You will prioritise the backlog in line with the roadmap and business requirements.
Take technical responsibility for projects related to the implementation and evolution of our Workday.
You will be the technical point of contact for Workday within the organisation, coordinating requests from the business and making ad hoc adjustments to the system as required.
Together with the People Systems team, you will continuously improve the structures and workflows for smooth system administration, including configuration and releases, as well as support for our internal customers.
As a System Owner (f/m/d) Workday, you will also have strategic and operational responsibility for a small team of Workday experts.
As a strategic thinker, you will balance the needs of internal customers with the realities of technology and business constraints.

What your day might look like as a System Owner (f/m/d) Workday at our company:

Start your day by setting up your workspace, whether it's at home or in the office, and make sure it's just right for a productive day.
Open your personal task manager and dive into the various projects you are working on - from the short-term operational to the long-term visionary.
Join the team for a daily stand-up to set the course for a day of collaborative teamwork. Maybe you'll look at your backlog together - or your Kanban board, or whatever style of agile collaboration suits the team best.
Continue with meetings or work sessions to understand your business.
Now it's time for lunch! Enjoy a meal at home with your significant other or explore a nearby restaurant with team members and colleagues.
If you're in the office, take the opportunity to grab a snack on Waffle Day or Health Day. Grab a freshly baked waffle or a freshly made smoothie to fuel up for the day ahead.
Have more meetings or work sessions in the afternoon. It is up to you how long you work and in what constellations and formats, but you can be prepared for a lot of people wanting a piece of you! So communication and (self-)organisation should be your strengths!
Fortunately, there will be regular meetings with your colleagues and line managers to help you keep abreast of the team's overall developments and goals, as well as the company's strategy.
Are you in the office today? Then why not spend a refreshing moment on the roof terrace and enjoy a complimentary drink before leaving the office - we value a good work-life balance.

Are you passionate about the code behind our products?

Programming Languages

Java: Java is used by some of our Tech teams and supports us with components that have complex logic, usually in combination with Spring Boot

TypeScript: We use TypeScript combined with the Angular and React frameworks in the frontend and also on the server side with NodeJS

Kotlin: We sometimes use Kotlin as an alternative to Java for server-side solutions and for our mobile development

Python: We often use Python when processing or transforming data. We also occasionally write services in it with the help of AWS Lambda

Frameworks

Angular: Particularly in our B2B area, we rely on Angular for our frontend in order to be able to develop interactive solutions efficiently

React: React is used when the performance of our solutions is important. Our B2C environment, in particular, benefits from React (shop profiles, trust badges, widgets, etc.)

Spring Boot: When it comes to complex business logic in Java and Kotlin, we use Spring Boot. It is deployed in Kubernetes clusters

NodeJS: Our focus is on serverless, and we often use typescript in the backend. We mostly use NodeJS in combination with AWS Lambda

Service & Tools

Circle CI:  CircleCI is our CI/CD tool for automated builds, testing & deployment

GitHub:  GitHub supports our internal open source policy and enables cross-team cooperation and feedback

Ansible: We use Ansible to provide our virtual servers in a repeatable and automated way

Terraform: Our AWS infrastructure is fully managed with Terraform. This allows us to keep a simple history of all changes and minimise the manual effort.

Databases & Hosting

DynamoDB: DynamoDB is often used to access large amounts of data in real time. We regularly use it with AWS Lambda to provide a scalable solution.

PostgreSQL/MySQL: If flexibility of data access is paramount, then we also use relational databases

AWS:  For us, it's "cloud first" so that we are able to scale the infrastructure of our products. Here we rely on services such as AWS Lambda, S3 and DynamoDB

Employee reviews

Right now we are working on a new major project for user management and permissions, which is interesting but also complex and has many aspects that will allow it to be integrated into other components. I really like the fact that, as developers within the team, we can decide which technology and programming language we want to use and how we structure the processes. This can sometimes be a challenge, but it helps us gain a lot of new experience. I can work on anything I want to learn about on self-learning days. And of course we have a very friendly and open working atmosphere. Team building events and mob/pair programming sessions also contribute to this.

I am currently working in the Review Insights team. In this product team, we work on frontends that help our customers, i.e. online retailers, to draw valuable information from the collected reviews. I have another colleague in the team from the front-end team with whom I work closely. This starts with the planning and discussion of solutions and ends with the joint revision of the written code. Overall, the working atmosphere at Trusted Shops is very pleasant and relaxed. Thanks to a specially developed platform solution, each product team can build its own micro frontends and is thus independent of the other product teams. This means that you are not restricted in your choice of framework, for example - however, we mainly use the common JavaScript frameworks. Personal development is also encouraged. This year, for example, I was able to take part in a one-week summer school on the topic of deep learning, and we basically have one day a month at our disposal to continue our education as we see fit.
