About The Position

The role also publishes feeds for Walmart B2B SEM and regional inventory, assists with strategic SEM campaign migrations, automates migration through pipelines, and develops offer-quality rules and metrics for publishing in GMC. The position manages end-to-end optimization of SEM data pipelines at scale.
