Integrations Consultant at Ashby - Remote US EST — Columbus
Traveler-Friendly Insight
This role is fully remote — Ashby explicitly states it's not a fit for candidates who prefer in-person work. However, there is a meaningful timezone constraint: the job posting specifies an EST (UTC-5/-4) preference, which significantly limits geographic flexibility for digital nomads.
EST alignment means you'll need to be available during roughly 9am–6pm Eastern Time. This is workable from:
- Lisbon, Portugal (UTC+1): overlap is tight but feasible with a 5-6 hour shift — expect early mornings or adjusted hours.
- Medellín, Colombia (UTC-5): perfect EST alignment, low cost of living (~$1,500–$2,000/month for a comfortable lifestyle), and Colombia offers a Digital Nomad Visa valid up to 2 years.
- Mexico City, Mexico (UTC-6): one hour behind EST, very workable, no specific nomad visa but tourist permits allow 180-day stays.
Southeast Asia (Bangkok, Bali) would be extremely difficult given the 11–13 hour gap from EST — this role is not suited for APAC-based nomads.
Perks relevant to nomads: A generous equipment and software budget helps you set up a productive remote workspace anywhere. The $100/month education stipend can cover productivity tools or language courses. No coworking or travel allowance is explicitly mentioned.
Given the customer-facing nature (live calls, project management with enterprise clients), expect real-time meeting requirements that make full async work unlikely.
Hi! I'm John, Ashby's Head of Professional Services. One of my favorite aspects of Ashby is our operating principle of Continuous Improvement. Coupled with our principle of caring deeply about our customers, we often find ourselves wondering 'what is a better way to accomplish this'. That's why I am thrilled to be hiring our next Integrations Consultant! As the third member of our Integrations Consulting team (within Ashby's Customer Success organization), you'll have the opportunity to lead customer-facing engagements, focusing on complex technical projects for some of our most strategic customers.
About This Role
As our next Integrations Consultant, you'll be responsible for defining, managing, and executing the technical requirements for strategic customers — specifically those implementing Ashby with one of our custom-built HCM integrations. You will work with customers of varying integration sophistication, advising on integration best practices, technical configurations, and working with a customer's internal expert on how to best achieve their goals.
You will use your existing knowledge of both integrations and the products we integrate with to consult with our customers, helping them get up and running swiftly with Ashby so they can ultimately achieve their desired business outcomes. You will partner with Product/Engineering, Implementation Specialists, CSMs, Sales Engineers, and other cross-functional partners. Ideally, this hire would be located in the EST time zone.
Role Requirements
Enterprise HCM Integration Experience: You have extensive experience managing and executing integrations with Workday, as well as other enterprise-grade HCM solutions like UKG, ADP, Oracle, and SAP SuccessFactors — defining the work, aligning with stakeholders, communicating the project plan, and delivering results. A Workday HCM certification is a plus, as is experience with other integrations listed in the Ashby Knowledge Base.
Customer Centricity: You are adept at understanding customer needs and tailoring implementations to meet their specific requirements. You build strong customer relationships through high levels of engagement and communication, acting as the customer's proactive guide and advocate throughout implementation.
Change Management: You are experienced in navigating change management processes and helping customers adapt to new systems and approaches.
Technical Proficiency: You have a solid understanding of a complex product (ideally Ashby) and its technical intricacies; you are technically curious and creative.
Consultative: You take pride in advising customers on best practices specific to their usage of software to ensure optimal value.
Innovative & Principled: You proactively address thematic customer opportunities and improve processes accordingly — thinking critically rather than relying on "I've seen this done before."
Cross-functional Collaboration: You effectively partner with stakeholders across Customer Success, Sales, Product, Engineering, and Operations to align and define progress.
You Could Be a Great Fit If:
📣 You demonstrate clear communication — asking clarifying questions with precision and distilling complex concepts into simple themes.
⚙️ You have proven experience managing complex integrations with people technology like Workday or other ERPs, including technical solution design and troubleshooting.
🎧 You are a great listener and see your role as the voice of the customer to internal stakeholders.
📈 You are a problem solver who thrives on complex challenges with innovative, scalable solutions.
⚡️ You know process matters and are eager to improve workflows to enhance efficiency and efficacy.
🔍 Your peers describe you as detail-oriented and technically proficient.
🤹 You are adept at managing multiple simultaneous, multithreaded projects and prioritizing based on customer and business needs.
📊 You are data-driven, using metrics and analytics to inform decisions and measure success.
🌍 You are adaptable — comfortable navigating a fast-paced, evolving environment and happy to serve as the Workday SME in pre-sales conversations when needed.
🧑🏫 You love to coach and see every teaching moment as an opportunity to help customers grow.
You Might Not Be a Great Fit If:
You have limited experience leading Workday integrations.
You prefer an in-person role over remote.
You are less interested in customer-facing roles that require both technical and interpersonal skills.
You are accustomed to defining ideas and strategies but not responsible for their execution.
You prefer working with a simple product (such as a point solution).
You prefer exclusively to build, rather than build, iterate, and optimize.
