About The Position

Position Summary... What you'll do... Lead the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) experience for our Food & Consumables portfolio. Your mission is to make creating, specifying, and launching private‑brand products radically faster, simpler, and more reliable on a modern enterprise product platform. Our team gathers information about customer needs and applies our technological expertise and strategic thinking to create a product roadmap. The product journey is designed to leverage technological excellence to drive customer satisfaction. Walmart's philosophy of Everyday Low Prices is not an easy one to achieve. Being cost-effective is critical because it allows us to optimize all processes and verticals while striving for excellence. Our team is a big part of making this possible. What you'll do: Own the PLM strategy and roadmap for consumer packaged goods—spanning product specs, packaging, testing, and approvals—to reduce time‑to‑market and rework. Ship improvements in small slices that remove manual steps and data errors across multi‑team workflows (product development, sourcing, quality, compliance, suppliers). Instrument, measure, and improve—define clear success metrics (cycle time, data quality, adoption), build dashboards, and iterate based on real usage. Partner across engineering, design, data, and operations to sequence delivery, manage dependencies, and land change‑management with internal teams and suppliers. Set a high bar for clarity—concise PRDs, sharp problem statements, and decision memos that keep everyone aligned and moving quickly. What you'll bring: Grit & urgency—bias to action, comfort in ambiguity, and a habit of shipping. Structured communication—tight writing and crisp narratives that make complex work simple. B2B workflow experience—you’ve shipped multi‑step enterprise workflows (e.g., PLM, LIMS/QA, compliance, or supplier portals) with measurable outcomes. Data fluency—comfortable defining north‑star metrics, instrumenting funnels, and turning telemetry into decisions. Cross‑functional leadership—ability to align product development, sourcing, quality, compliance, and supplier experience around outcomes.
