Position: Senior Product Manager

Number of Positions Available: Two (2)

Job Location: 1375 Crossman Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA 94089

Duties: The products managed and designed are internal enterprise software applications used by Walmart Fulfillment Services (WFS), Walmart's service that stores, packs, and ships merchandise on behalf of third-party sellers. They include: (1) a suite of dispute-investigation and case-management tools used by Seller Support agents to research and resolve seller disputes, for example disputes over an item's recorded dimensions; (2) guided agent workflows that standardize and simplify how agents handle complex cases, such as a workflow for processing seller Returns, to reduce handling time and manual errors; (3) an AI assistant that consolidates a shipment's status, tracking, and freight location into a single view for faster case resolution, such as confirming whether a shipment a seller sent to Walmart was received; and (4) warehouse-operations software for WFS Inbound Consolidation Centers (ICCs), the facilities that receive and consolidate seller inventory, including designing and launching the software required to open two new fulfillment buildings that expand the capacity of the supply chain network, and designing a new application used to receive inbound pallets of merchandise. Because these products are often built by the same engineering teams, the employee manages a roadmap, prioritizing them by urgency, importance, technical effort, and business value. For example, the employee gathers requirements from Seller Support agents, analyzes case data to identify the highest-impact problems, prioritizes the resulting backlog, and manages the staged rollout of new functionality such as enhancements to the shipment-dispute tool. The employee measures a support team's performance metrics, such as average case handle time, before and after a feature is released to quantify its benefit; evaluates the alternative options available to sellers and customers when shaping new features; develops business cases that justify an investment, such as opening the two new buildings; and sets the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) used to track each product's success. The employee leads the program to prepare and launch the software required to open the two new ICC (Inventory Consolidation Centers) buildings, coordinating across engineering, operations, and facilities teams, communicating goals and milestones, and tracking progress against the launch plan. The employee works with engineering and design partners to turn business needs into clear technical requirements, and communicates status, risks, and insights to stakeholders. Develops and enhances moderately complex products by developing and managing product roadmaps; gathering and documenting requirements; collecting and analyzing customer and product data; turning customer insights into actionable priorities and initiatives; prioritizing product backlog; executing on user and business acceptance criteria; and managing roll out of product features. Defines and manages strategy and business objectives for moderately complex products by conducting benchmark studies and competitive assessments; developing business cases; and setting objectives and key performance indicators for products. Coordinates, completes, and oversees job-related activities and assignments by developing and maintaining relationships with key stakeholders; supporting plans and initiatives to meet customer and business needs; identifying and communicating goals and objectives; building accountability for and measuring progress in achieving results; identifying and addressing improvement opportunities; and demonstrating adaptability and promoting continuous learning.
