About the Role
This role will be responsible for utilizing industry best technologies and practices to enable analysis, intelligence, and processing of some of the largest datasets in motion at Walmart in near-realtime.

• Display sense of ownership over assigned work, requiring minimal direction and driving to completion in a sometimes fuzzy and uncharted environment
• Focus on enabling developers and analysts through self-service and automated tooling, rather than manual requests and acting as a gatekeeper
• Participate in on-call rotation, including continuously seeking to reduce noise, improve monitoring coverage, and improve quality-of-life for on-call engineers
About You
• Experience in running, using and troubleshooting industry standard messaging and data technologies such as Spark, Cassandra, Kafka, Active MQ, MySQL.

• Experience processing large amounts of structured and unstructured data in streaming and batch.
• Experience with cloud infrastructure. We use Azure and GCP specifically, but any will do
• A focus on automation and providing leverage-based solutions to enable sustainable and scalable growth in an ever-changing ecosystem
• Experience building and maintaining a centralized platform or services, to be consumed by other teams, is ideal, but not necessary
• A passion for Operational Excellence and SRE/DevOps mindset, including an eye for monitoring, alerting, self-healing, and automation.
• Experience in an Agile environment, able to manage scope and iterate quickly to consistently deliver value to the customer
