Description For Staff, Software Engineer, Front End

Walmart Global Tech is seeking a Staff Software Engineer to join their front-end development team in Sunnyvale, CA. This role combines technical leadership with hands-on development, focusing on building and maintaining critical e-commerce solutions for Walmart's marketplace growth. The position offers an opportunity to work on large-scale systems that impact millions of customers daily.

The role requires expertise in both frontend (JavaScript, ReactJS) and backend (Java, Spring Boot) technologies, with a strong emphasis on creating responsive, accessible user interfaces and scalable microservices. You'll spend approximately 60% of your time coding while also providing technical leadership, mentoring team members, and driving architectural decisions.

Working within Walmart's U.S. stores and eCommerce business unit, you'll collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop solutions across various retail categories, from groceries to entertainment. The team focuses on enhancing customer experience, store operations, merchant tools, and search/personalization features.

The position offers competitive compensation ($143,000-$286,000 annually) plus performance bonuses and comprehensive benefits including health coverage, 401(k) matching, stock purchase plans, and paid parental leave. This is an excellent opportunity for experienced engineers who want to make a significant impact while working with cutting-edge retail technology at scale.

The ideal candidate will have 8+ years of full-stack development experience, strong leadership abilities, and a track record of delivering complex software systems. Knowledge of accessibility standards and experience with e-commerce platforms are highly valued. While the role requires deep technical expertise, equally important are communication skills and the ability to mentor junior developers.

Join Walmart Global Tech to be part of a team that's reimagining retail through technology, making a difference in how millions of people shop and live better.
