About the Team
 

At Walmart, we are a people-led, tech-powered omnichannel retailer supporting over 2.2M associates worldwide within the Global Technology Platform team, we build and operate foundational platforms that enable scalable application development, intelligent automation, and AI-powered engineering experiences across Walmart’s global technology ecosystem.

A key responsibility within this space is building and managing DX, Walmart’s internal developer experience platform for technical content creation, management, and publication.

The team is responsible for:

• Owning the full lifecycle of technical content including blogs, product documentation, implementation guides, and onboarding assets
• Driving adoption of GenAI-powered writing assistance, automated validation, intelligent error detection and integration with Wibey Super agent
• Managing product article directories, usage analytics dashboards, and version governance
• Enabling collaboration between platform teams, product teams, and the broader developer community
• Ensuring seamless integration with enterprise developer tools while maintaining high content quality standards

DX Studio serves as the central knowledge hub for Walmart’s developer ecosystem — supporting ~15,000 weekly active users, providing access to 10,000+ starter kits, and enabling onboarding and knowledge sharing across engineering teams.

As DX evolves into an AI-first platform, it is tightly integrated with Wibey, Walmart’s Super Agent for developer enablement. Wibey powers intelligent workflows across DX including AI-generated release notes, Jira-to-documentation automation, contextual knowledge discovery, and agentic moderation — transforming DX from a static documentation system into an intelligent, self-service knowledge platform.

• Contribute to system reliability, scalability, and performance, applying best practices in caching, concurrency, error handling, and capacity planning
• Write high-quality, well-tested code, participate actively in code reviews, and uphold engineering best practices across backend and frontend components
• Collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, designers, ML engineers, and other developers to translate business requirements into technical solutions
• Participate in production support and on-call rotations, helping diagnose issues, resolve incidents, and implement long-term fixes

• Solid API design skills, including RESTful APIs, service contracts, versioning, and integration patterns
• Experience integrating with AI/ML or GenAI services, focusing on backend orchestration, reliability, and performance rather than model development
• Working knowledge of data storage systems, including relational and NoSQL databases, and an understanding of trade-offs in data modeling and access patterns
• Understanding of security fundamentals, including authentication, authorization, and secure API development
• Experience with observability tools, including logging, metrics, and basic tracing, to support debugging and production readiness
