Business Systems Analyst II

About the role

Florida Poly is a small, fast-moving STEM institution that treats our Workday tenant as a platform for progress, not just a system to maintain. As a Business Systems Analyst II on our Enterprise Solutions team, you'll design, refine, and reimagine the business processes that run this university, working across HCM, Financials, Procurement, Grants, and connected areas like payroll, benefits, and talent management. We believe the best solutions come from trying things: whiteboarding a bold idea, building it, testing it, and pivoting if it doesn't work. This role is built for a true generalist who can flex across the Workday tenant as priorities shift, stay ahead of new release features, and help put bleeding-edge functionality to work for our university. Most of all, we're looking for someone smart, curious, and genuinely excited to learn. You don't need to walk in the door with every skill mastered; if you've got the drive and the aptitude, we'll invest in developing the rest.

Responsibilities

• Review, analyze, and evaluate business processes across HCM, Finance, and Procurement functional areas; gather system requirements and end-user needs.
• Whiteboard and design business process frameworks, document functional and technical requirements, process workflows, reports, security configurations, and integrations.

• Prepare and organize testing, including functional testing and user acceptance testing (UAT), across affected Workday modules.
• Foster inter-department relationships that emphasize collaboration, delivery, and process improvement. Work effectively with all areas of the University, including other systems/business analysts, platform administrators, and project managers, on joint projects as necessary.
• Work as part of the ITS Solutions Delivery Team to deliver high-quality digital business solutions. Help maintain the business process library. Work with the Documentation & Training Specialist to meet client support needs for documentation and training.
