About the Role

As the Senior Productivity Platform Developer, you will be the primary technical owner and architect of the company’s Asana platform. You will design, standardize, and scale the way teams plan, track, and deliver work in Asana across the company. This includes establishing governance and best-practice frameworks, building reusable templates and automations, managing integrations, and ensuring the platform is secure, reliable, and easy to use.

As a member of the Productivity Platform team, you will partner closely with Engineering, Datacenter Operations, IT to translate business processes into robust Asana workflows that drive clarity, accountability, and execution at scale.

This is a high-impact, high-visibility role ideal for someone who loves both systems design and hands-on configuration, and who enjoys building repeatable, opinionated patterns for how work gets done.

What You’ll Do

●      Partner with business stakeholders to deeply understand their processes, then translate requirements into opinionated, maintainable Asana solutions with clear ownership and SLAs.

●      Design and implement scalable, cross-functional workflows in Asana using projects, templates, forms, rules, approvals, custom fields, and portfolios to support campaigns, launches, intake, and operational processes.

●      Serve as the primary Asana admin and subject-matter expert, managing global settings, security controls, user provisioning/deprovisioning, and licensing.

●      Build and maintain Asana automations and integrations using native capabilities and third-party tools (e.g., Workato, Zapier, or similar) to connect Asana with systems such as Slack, Google Workspace, email, Jira, Salesforce, GitHub, and internal tools.

●      Collaborate closely with Enterprise Security and Identity teams to ensure Asana adheres to the company’s security and compliance standards, including SSO/SAML, SCIM-based provisioning, MFA, least-privilege access, and auditability.

●      Establish and maintain dashboards, reporting, and usage analytics to measure adoption, data quality, and workflow effectiveness; use insights to drive continuous improvement.

●      Develop and maintain clear documentation, runbooks, and internal guides for Asana usage, configuration patterns, and support processes.

●      Lead enablement efforts including training sessions, office hours, and 1:many enablement to help teams become confident, self-sufficient Asana users.

●      Act as an escalation point for complex Asana issues, coordinating with Asana support and internal teams to drive timely resolution and preventive improvements.
