  • Partner with team leadership to set technical roadmaps, and build, execute, and monitor delivery plans that realize the roadmap.
  • Act as a Program Manager for the team, leading Agile ceremonies, removing team bottlenecks and impediments, and driving team effectiveness.
  • Monitor, assess, improve, document, and communicate program and project performance to team members, peers, and leadership with a keen focus on scope, quality, schedule, risk, and change management.
  • Represent the Performance Intelligence team in negotiations with other groups.
What we're looking for:
  • 5+ years in an Engineering or Scientist role building and delivering complex technical solutions in a large-scale organization.
  • 5+ years as a Technical Program Manager in a matrix organization with experience delivering and supporting complex software systems, preferably with both hardware and software components.
  • 7+ years of experience in an Agile Scrum and/or Kanban software environment.
  • Exceptional ability to build strong relationships and influence across organizational boundaries to deliver the best outcomes.
  • Strong ability to impactfully communicate with all levels of management through diplomacy, tact, and transparency.
  • Ability to drive strong attention to detail and process excellence into software engineering teams.
  • Results-oriented, customer-focused, biased toward action and a sense of urgency.
  • Effective negotiation and risk management skills, and possession of a comprehensive suite of tools applicable to common project challenges.
  • Expertise in Jira, Confluence and Microsoft Project highly desired.

Preferred, but not required:

  • Project Management Professional (PMP), Agile Certified Practitioner (ACP), or equivalent formal training preferred.
  • PhD (preferred) or MS in an Engineering, Mathematics or Science discipline.
We offer great benefits for a happier mind, body, and wallet:
  • Competitive pay and performance-based bonus awards
  • Competitive 401(k) matching program, stock purchase plans, and equity opportunities
  • Comprehensive health, vision, and insurance plans with options for dependent coverage
  • Unlimited PTO for salaried employees, covering vacation, holidays, and personal days
  • Up to 12 weeks of fully paid maternity/paternity leave
  • Special Walmart discounts for in-store and online purchases
  • Complimentary daily lunches, beverages, and snacks
  • Other benefits include short-term and long-term disability, Military Leave Pay, adoption and surrogacy expense reimbursement, and more
