Senior Manager, Technical Program Management - Catalog Solutions Strategy & Enablement

Walmart Walmart · Retail · Bentonville, AR

This role shapes common decision platforms that teams across Walmart use to turn their rules and models into standardized item-level classifications and actions. The role is responsible for defining strategy, ensuring adoption, and driving measurable results for Catalog Solutions.

What you'd actually do

  1. Serve as a key point of connection between stakeholder teams (e.g., supply chain, stores, merchandising) and internal build teams (Catalog engineering, data partners, innovation pods).
  2. Translate stakeholder problems into clear solution shapes: what needs to exist, what “good” looks like, what must be true for adoption, and what we will measure.
  3. Shape a strategy for how Catalog solutions should be built and delivered across multiple efforts—so the portfolio moves in one direction and produces reusable outcomes.
  4. Drive value realization: define success measures up front (coverage, quality, adoption, and business impact) and ensure teams can show progress with credible metrics.
  5. Identify where overlapping efforts are creating duplicated work or conflicting outputs; drive alignment and a practical path to a single approach.
