• Strong experience with SAP and Workday, weighted more heavily than years of experience
• Experience working with ERP, HCM, or payroll data in a corporate environment
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to translate business requirements into clear technical documentation
• Access to sensitive data was highlighted, requiring high awareness of data sensitivity and compliance
• Industry background was not restricted; candidates can come from various industries

About the Role:

This role will serve as a subject matter expert and hands-on leader driving the delivery of enterprise HR systems and integrations that support our global workforce. In this role, you will lead complex, cross-functional initiatives across ERP platforms (including SAP S/4 HR and Workday) to enhance employee experiences, streamline HR operations, and enable data-driven decision-making for leaders worldwide.

The role supports integration work involving Workday, SAP, and an internal middleware/data hub. Core responsibilities include:

• Partnering with internal requesters (often HR, but not exclusively)
• Gathering and refining business requirements
• Translating business needs into functional and technical requirements
• Validating feasibility with internal technical teams
• Partnering with Data Governance to ensure legal and privacy compliance
• Handing finalized requirements to developers for execution

The role was repeatedly characterized as similar to a senior/lead Business Analyst, despite the Product Manager title.

Responsibilities:

You will lead small to medium-scale HR technology initiatives from discovery through post-implementation Hypercare, partnering closely with business stakeholders, DevOps, and external vendors to deliver scalable, reliable solutions. You will act as a skilled, experienced subject matter expert and mentor, solving complex problems, defining clear outcomes, and aligning work to organizational goals while fostering a collaborative, innovative, and high-performing team culture. This role matters because it ensures Disney's HR platforms and integrations effectively support our people, protect data integrity, and enable world-class employee and leader experiences.

Serve as the integration subject matter expert on enterprise HR technology projects from requirements gathering and solution design through implementation and Hypercare support.

Analyze HR system enhancement requests, partnering with business stakeholders to define functional requirements, assess integration challenges, and evaluate global template and site-specific impacts.

Lead test efforts for system enhancements, including test planning, building test sets, coordinating functional and integration testing, tracking completion, managing test issue reports, and overseeing re-testing activities.

Partner with DevOps teams to architect enterprise-scale integrations and extensible applications that support HR, payroll, benefits, and reporting processes.

Lead small to medium-scale projects related to HR system enhancements and implementations, coordinating with business partners and external vendors to ensure milestones, goals, and tasks are delivered on time.

Drive solutioning conversations to determine the best technical approach, assess feasibility within platform lifecycle constraints, and propose viable alternatives when initial requests are not feasible.

Evaluate current HR processes and data flows for efficiency, accuracy, and consistency, recommending and implementing process improvements.

Develop, monitor, and execute test plans for system enhancements, ensuring alignment with business requirements and system configuration.

Act as a subject matter expert and lead product manager for HR technology, translating complex concepts for diverse audiences and negotiating to align stakeholders on recommended solutions.

Collaborate across HR, technology, and business teams to build strong partnerships, ensure shared understanding of priorities, and foster a team-player environment focused on problem solving and delivery.

Create an inclusive, caring environment where values are lived daily, well-being is supported, and diverse perspectives are encouraged in decision making.

Basic Qualifications:

• 7+ years of experience in ERP systems, including SAP S/4 HR (HCM, Org, Payroll) and Workday.

• Strong foundation in HR technology and processes across HCM, organization management, payroll, benefits, integrations, and reporting.

• Demonstrated experience as a subject matter expert and lead, solving complex problems and identifying innovative solutions in technology-driven environments.

• Excellent communication, presentation, and technical writing skills, with the ability to explain difficult concepts and influence diverse stakeholders, including senior audiences.

• Outstanding interpersonal skills, including customer service, partnership building, and collaboration across matrixed teams.

• Proven experience in process improvement and driving continuous optimization of systems and workflows.

• Demonstrated ability to prioritize tasks, meet deadlines, adapt quickly to changing priorities, and multi-task in a dynamic, complex organization.

• Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and excellent follow-through, with the ability to maintain confidentiality and interface with employees at all levels.
