What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Sync Workday employee and org data into Delta tables for analytics

Automatically pull employee records, compensation history, and org structure from Workday into your Databricks lakehouse. Keep Delta tables fresh with incremental updates so data teams always work with current HR data. Enable self-service people analytics without burdening HR systems.

Build real-time attrition risk scores and push to Workday profiles

Train ML models in Databricks on historical employee data, performance metrics, and engagement signals. Score active employees for attrition risk and write predictions back to custom fields in Workday. Give HR leaders predictive insights directly in their workflow.

Generate executive workforce reports from unified Databricks analytics

Combine Workday HR data with business metrics in Databricks to create comprehensive workforce dashboards. Automatically run scheduled jobs that calculate headcount trends, cost per hire, and diversity metrics. Deliver formatted reports to leadership without manual aggregation.

Alert talent teams when ML models detect compensation anomalies

Run compensation equity analysis in Databricks using Workday pay data and employee attributes. Trigger alerts when models identify statistically significant pay gaps by role, tenure, or location. Route findings to HR for proactive review before compliance issues arise.

Enrich Workday profiles with skill predictions from learning platform data

Aggregate training completions, certifications, and project participation in Databricks from multiple sources. Use ML to infer employee skill proficiencies and write structured skill tags back to Workday talent profiles. Power better internal mobility and succession planning.

Archive historical Workday snapshots to Delta Lake for compliance

Automatically capture point-in-time employee records, payroll runs, and org structure changes from Workday. Store immutable history in Delta tables with full audit trails for regulatory compliance. Enable long-term trend analysis without straining transactional HR systems.

Live in four steps

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize Databricks and Workday with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.

02

Describe what you want

Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.

03

Review and activate

Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.

04

Let it run — and iterate

Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird understands Workday's complex HR object model and Databricks lakehouse schemas—so you can automate data flows between enterprise HR and advanced analytics without custom code.

AI that maps Workday HR structures to Delta tables automatically

Redbird's AI understands Workday's nested worker objects, organizational hierarchies, compensation elements, and time-tracking structures. It maps these to optimized Delta Lake schemas with proper type handling for currency, dates, and categorical fields. The platform handles incremental syncs using Workday's effective dating and knows how to flatten complex parent-child relationships into analytics-ready tables. No manual schema mapping or transformation logic required.
