About The Opportunity We are seeking a hands-on Product Manager to join the Core HR team. This role owns critical platform capabilities that ensure employee data is consistently structured, configured, and compliant across HR, Time, and Pay.

The role also includes ownership of selected APJ regulatory capabilities embedded within Core HR, ensuring that platform configuration supports compliant outcomes across regional markets. This is an individual contributor role requiring strong product craft, structured thinking, and the ability to translate regulatory and operational complexity into scalable, intuitive product capabilities. Why this role matters The Core HR rules engine is foundational to how Dayforce delivers compliant, consistent employee records across the platform.

• Define and maintain a clear roadmap aligned to platform strategy and customer outcomes.
• Partner closely with Engineering and UX to design scalable, configurable, enterprise grade solutions.
• Engage directly with customers, implementation teams, and internal stakeholders to understand configuration challenges, regulatory needs, and workflow pain points.
• Translate complex regulatory and cross functional business rules into clear product requirements and user stories.
• Ensure that rules-logic supports compliant outcomes across markets where applicable.
• Collaborate with adjacent product teams across Payroll, Workforce Management, and Talent to ensure cross-product consistency.
• Use product metrics, customer feedback, and operational data to inform prioritisation and measure impact.
• Support go-to-market readiness and participate in major feature releases.

Skills And Experience We Value

• Experience owning configurable platform capabilities or business rules engines within complex systems.

• Ability to break down complex regulatory or operational requirements into structured, scalable product solutions.
• Clear communicator who can align technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience working directly with enterprise customers and incorporating feedback into roadmap decisions.
• Commercial awareness and ability to balance customer value with business impact.
• Comfortable operating in a remote, global, enterprise scale organisation.

What Will Make You Stand Out

• Experience building or evolving Core HR configuration frameworks or rules-based systems.
