Solutions Architect, Business Technology Security

DoorDash • Charlotte, FL

14h • $102,000 - $150,000

About The Position

The DoorDash Architecture and Security team is seeking a Solutions Architect focused on Business Technology Security, with demonstrated experience in Workday Security. The role owns the strategy and design of Workday security architecture and ensures that architecture is correctly reflected in custom, in-house tools and dashboards built downstream. It is focused on strategy and design, including gathering requirements, documenting them clearly, and communicating design decisions to technical and non-technical stakeholders. The role works directly with senior leaders and cross-functional partners to design lasting, secure solutions across the broader ecosystem and reports to the Sr. Manager, Architecture and Security.

The position defines Workday security architecture—including data models, security groups, domains, and business process security—as the People organization’s security source of truth. It translates that architecture into implementation-ready documentation and requirements for build teams and downstream tools. The role also reviews proposed custom tooling and reporting for security and data-access implications, partners with process owners on data-security policies, and conducts audits and risk assessments across Workday and downstream systems. As a subject matter expert, the Solutions Architect communicates security, data, and reporting capabilities, limitations, and trade-offs to build teams and business stakeholders.

The position is expected to be filled by 01/14. The U.S. national base pay range, including Illinois and Colorado, is $102,000–$150,000, with equity grant opportunities. Compensation depends on job-related factors, including skills, experience, qualifications, work location, and market conditions.

• Understanding of how Workday HCM module security models interact.
• Ability to turn ambiguous business or security needs into clear, detailed design or requirements documentation that another team can implement.
• Experience translating Workday security and data architecture into requirements for downstream custom-built tools and reporting systems.
• BA/BS degree in a quantitative or business field, or equivalent work experience.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including presenting design recommendations to senior stakeholders and handing off clear specifications to a separate engineering or build team.
