What you'll do

There are very few places, if any, where you can bridge physical and digital experiences for hundreds of millions of users. Here in the Digital Acceleration team at Walmart Labs, we build the tools that bring the shopping experience in our stores to par with (or even better than) the experience of shopping online. Yes, finding a pair of shoe laces at a large super-center can be challenging or checkout at a cashier might take a while. But, these are all opportunities that can be addressed with cool technology solutions, often involving mobile apps. That is our focus in the Digital Acceleration team. Our work impacts customers' daily lives. If enhancing real-world experiences with technology is your passion, keep on reading!

We are obsessed about our customers and technical products that make their life easier when in a store. We expect our fellow teammates to be involved in all parts of the product development from product requirements and design to implementation and support.
