This role will focus on enabling Walmart’s shopping assistant capabilities to operate beyond traditional owned surfaces, while maintaining a trusted, reliable, and customer‑first commerce experience. You will define how Walmart’s AI shopping assistant can support discovery, basket building, product questions, cart actions, checkout readiness, and post‑purchase use cases in flexible environments. This is a highly strategic platform role that requires product depth across AI, eCommerce, identity, payments, trust, fraud, partner integrations, and customer experience.

About the team: The AI Shopping team leads strategic AI initiatives to drive innovation and market growth. It collaborates with external partners including OpenAI and Google, and across internal functions to develop product roadmaps, execute go-to-market strategies, and manage stakeholder relationships effectively.

What you'll do:

• Define the core capabilities required for an agent-to-agent architecture that helps customers discover products, build baskets, refine choices, and move toward purchase in a trusted way.

• Build product guardrails for what AI assistants can do on behalf of customers, including cart changes, purchase readiness, payment, order management, and customer consent.
• Define user experiences that support both new and returning customers, balancing low-friction entry with personalization, account linking, membership recognition, and trust.
• Lead product development for APIs, tools, MCP servers, permissions, and integration patterns that allow Walmart agentic commerce capabilities to work reliably across multiple environments.
• Develop instrumentation to measure adoption, activation, engagement, basket creation, conversion, failure rates, latency, customer satisfaction, and partner performance.
• Create reusable playbooks and standards so future integrations can launch faster, more safely, and with consistent customer experience quality.
• Collaborate with partner-facings and platform teams to evaluate integration opportunities, prioritize capabilities, and scale learnings across the broader commerce ecosystem.

What you’ll bring:

• 15+ years of product management experience, with experience in e-commerce, AI products, platform products, partner integrations, marketplace, payments, identity, or consumer technology.
• Strong understanding of e-commerce customer journeys, including discovery, product detail, cart, checkout, fulfillment, account, and post-purchase experiences.
• Experience building platform capabilities, APIs, MCP servers, partner integrations, or reusable product infrastructure.
• Ability to define product requirements for complex systems involving AI models, customer-facing UX, backend services, data flows, security, and operational controls.
• Strong product judgment around customer trust, safety, privacy, consent, reliability, and risk.
• Experience leading cross-functional initiatives with engineering, design, analytics, legal, privacy, security, payments, fraud, and business stakeholders.
• Strong analytical skills and experience defining product metrics, funnel measurement, experimentation plans, and operational dashboards.
• Excellent communication skills, including the ability to simplify complex technical and strategic topics for executive and cross-functional audiences.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with conversational AI, AI agents, large language models, recommendation systems, search, or personalization.
• Experience with commerce platforms, embedded experiences, account linking, payments, fraud prevention, or third-party integrations.
