Position Summary...

What you'll do...
About the Team
We are looking for Agent Builders-problem solvers who are passionate about speed, simplification, and impact. As an Agent Builder, you will leverage our self-service agent-building tools-featuring low-code/no-code and natural language interfaces-to design and deploy agents that automate complex workflows across Walmart.
You will solve large-scale problems end-to-end, iterate rapidly, and significantly improve operational efficiency. This role is ideal for self-starters who think holistically, simplify fearlessly, and execute with urgency.

What You'll Do
  • Use a low-code/no-code platform to build and deploy software agents that solve complex business problems
  • Translate business challenges into agent-driven automation by orchestrating APIs, triggers, LLM functions, and data workflows
  • Rapidly iterate on agent designs using natural language interfaces and workflow visualizers
  • Own solutions from start to finish-no handoffs, no dependencies-focused on delivering results
  • Partner with cross-functional teams to understand upstream and downstream impacts of automation
  • Continuously improve agent performance by monitoring execution and applying first-principles thinking to optimize or re-architect solutions
  • Champion change by challenging legacy thinking, pushing boundaries, and driving action
  • Act as a force multiplier by enabling business stakeholders to adopt agent-based thinking and automation
  • Your success will be measured by sales growth, cost savings, and time savings, not the number of agents you build.


Who You Are
  • A generalist who enjoys solving problems end-to-end
  • Biased toward action-you build before scheduling meetings
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and energized by new challenges
  • Focused on speed, simplification, and measurable outcomes
  • Willing to ask "why," challenge the status quo, and think differently


Basic Qualifications
  • 5+ years of experience in business, operations, product, strategy, or a generalist role, with a proven track record of delivering results
  • Familiarity with core technical concepts (e.g., APIs, microservices, LLMs, triggers, webhooks)
  • Strong analytical skills with a systems-thinking mindset
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to think independently and simplify complex problems using first principles


Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with AI/LLM applications, prompt engineering, or automation tools
  • Understanding of retail, eCommerce, supply chain, merchandising, or logistics operations
  • Experience in a fast-paced, high-growth environment
