Position Summary...What you'll do...

Walmart's Enterprise Business Services (EBS) is a powerhouse of exceptional teams delivering world-class technology solutions and services that make a profound impact at every level of Walmart.

As a key part of Walmart Global Tech, our teams set the bar for operational excellence and leverage emerging technologies to support millions of customers, associates, and stakeholders worldwide.

Joining EBS means embarking on a journey of limitless growth, relentless innovation, and the opportunity to shape the future of Walmart.

The EBS Technology team is looking for a Staff Software Engineer who will operate as a horizontal, hands-on technologist — supporting multiple teams across software engineering, data engineering, and data science. You will provide technical direction, guide problem-solving, and actively contribute to design and development when teams need hands-on support.

• Architecture & Design: Contribute to the design and review of scalable, secure, and high-performing systems and data solutions.

• Hands-On Development: Contribute directly to coding, debugging, and performance optimization across services, data pipelines, and APIs.
• Collaboration: Work closely with product managers, architects, and data scientists to ensure cohesive and scalable technical solutions.
• Mentorship: Coach and mentor engineers, foster technical excellence, and drive adherence to engineering best practices.
• Innovation: Experiment with emerging technologies, especially in AI/ML and automation, to drive continuous improvement.
• Quality & Reliability: Implement robust testing, CI/CD, observability, and operational excellence practices across systems.

What You'll Bring

• Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
• Experience: 8–10 years of software engineering experience, including 2+ years in a senior or staff-level technical role.
• Technical Breadth:
  • Proficiency in Java, Python, SQL, and one or more modern programming languages (language-agnostic mindset).
  • Strong experience with microservices, distributed systems, and event-driven architectures.
  • Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
  • Exposure to data pipelines, data lakes, or data warehouses (Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Redshift, or Synapse).
  • Familiarity with CI/CD, Git, Docker, Kubernetes, and modern DevOps practices.
• AI/ML Exposure:
  • Understanding of AI/ML concepts, model lifecycle, and how to integrate machine learning into production systems.
  • Prior collaboration with data science teams or experience building ML-enabled applications is a plus.
• Soft Skills & Leadership:
  • Strong problem-solving, analytical, and debugging skills.
  • Excellent communication, collaboration, and influencing abilities.
  • Ability to balance hands-on contributions with mentoring and architectural guidance.
  • Comfortable working across multiple technologies and rapidly adapting to new ones.
