# Senior Manager, Software Engineering

Position Summary... What you'll do... Job Description About Team GDF sits at the core of Walmart's AI & Data organization, building the foundational data platforms that make it possible for every team at Walmart - technical or non-technical - to build with trustworthy, well-governed, discoverable data. Our platforms serve billions of transactions and interactions across 19 countries, powering everything from supply chain intelligence to customer-facing personalization to enterprise AI agents. This particular team is newly formed to solve one of GDF's next big platform bets - which means you'll be shaping charter, operating model, and delivery cadence essentially from a blank page, not inheriting someone else's playbook. What You'll Do Lead the engineering team(s) responsible for designing, building, and operating GDF's core data platform capabilities - pipelines, processing frameworks, storage layers, and service APIs that power downstream analytics and AI workloads across Walmart. Stay hands-on: write and review production code, prototype solutions to hard technical problems, and participate directly in design and code reviews rather than delegating all technical depth to the tea
