Workday Business Systems Analyst, People Systems

<div class="content-intro"><h2><strong>About Anthropic</strong></h2> <p>Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.</p></div><h2><strong>About the role</strong></h2> <p>Anthropic is seeking a talented and driven Workday Business Systems Analyst to join our People Systems team. You'll own the technical configuration, testing, and operational excellence of our Workday HRIS across two domains: PATT and HCM. Your deepest work will be on the PATT side, where you'll refine our existing payroll, absence, and time tracking configuration and shape PATT design decisions as they're made. On the HCM side, you'll own core HCM data structures, business process frameworks, and the security model that underpins everything we do in Workday. You'll be relied on as a system expert for both strategic guidance and hands-on delivery.&nbsp;</p> <p>This role is about moving the team forward, not just keeping the system running. The right candidate is passionate about where AI and internal tooling can make People Systems more effective, and treats "the way it's always been done" as a starting point to question rather than a constraint.</p> <p>We're looking for someone who is naturally curious and an exceptional problem solver — the kind of person who looks beyond the obvious or "standard" Workday answer and asks why before how. You'll find success in this role if you thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment and know how to reprioritize without losing rigor. You'll partner across many parts of the business, from the broader People team to Finance, IT, and beyond, to make sure our HRIS is secure, scalable, and a true business enabler.</p> <h2><strong>Responsibilities</strong></h2> <p><strong>PATT and HCM</strong>
