  • Translate field pain points into clear problem statements and acceptance criteria; prioritize with Product/Engineering and follow through to delivery.
Operational Excellence & Strategy
  • Recommend tuning to dispatch/optimization cost factors (e.g., empty vs. incremental miles, time‑to‑assignment) to improve planning quality and reliability.
  • Lead initiatives to reduce empty miles, improve route efficiency, and lower transportation costs.
  • Identify inefficiencies and implement innovative solutions to enhance operations.
Automation & Systems Integration
  • Champion automation by transitioning repeatable tasks into the dispatch platform and connected systems; promote exception‑based management.

  • Condense multiple issues into clear problem statements with quantified impact; prioritize and drive resolution across sprints/releases.
  • Track KPIs (acceptance/utilization, planning reliability, time‑to‑assignment, SLA adherence) and sustain gains through follow‑ups.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • Collaborate with Operations and Logistics leaders, Product, Engineering, and Asset Management to align strategies and deliver outcomes.
  • Communicate updates and changes in clear, non‑technical language to ensure smooth execution.
Incident Leadership
  • Lead incident triage and root‑cause analysis (RCA); classify impact and drive fast mitigation with clear standard operating procedures (SOP’s).
  • Validate fixes in production and document one‑best‑way standards to prevent recurrence.
Risk & Compliance Management
  • Maintain contingency playbooks and uphold SLAs (time‑to‑triage, time‑to‑mitigation, defect cycle time) for system stability.
  • Ensure compliance with Walmart’s policies, guidelines, and relevant regulations.
You’ll Sweep Us Off Your Feet If You:
  • Are passionate about teaching and training others.
  • Thrive in a fast-paced, high-change environment.
  • Are fluent in dispatch/logistics platforms and move from analysis to shipped improvements.
  • Love analytics and RCA and can tell a clear, data‑driven story that influences decisions.
  • Have a high tolerance for change in leadership, strategy, and direction.
  • Are an independent thinker with strong problem-solving skills and a proactive mindset.
QualificationsRequired:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Logistics, Supply Chain, Business Administration, or related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in transportation, logistics, or operations management.
  • Strong communication, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
  • Experience leading incident triage and RCA for production systems, partnering with Product/Engineering to deliver fixes.
  • Ability to communicate complex system behavior in clear, non‑technical terms to frontline teams and leaders.
Preferred:
  • Experience managing budgets, P&L, and analyzing operational data.
  • Experience with dispatching or trip‑planning platforms (driver assignment, workload stitching, route optimization).
  • Experience writing acceptance criteria/PRDs, running UAT, and measuring post‑release impact.
  • Comfort with data analysis (Excel/Sheets, SQL, or BI tools) to quantify impact and support prioritization.
