About The Team
At Sam’s Club, our Product Team is redefining omnichannel retail for our members. We sit at the intersection of merchandising, eCommerce, supply chain, membership, and marketing—moving fast, experimenting boldly, and measuring success through clear member and business outcomes. If you thrive on big problems, data-driven bets, and shipping at startup speed inside a Fortune 1 company, Sam’s Club is your playground.
What You’ll Do
- Setting the Product Vision – Define an experience for AI-powered merchandising insights that balances short-term wins with a multiyear platform strategy.
- Leading with Data & AI – Translate raw data (sales, inventory, member behavior, supply-chain signals) into ML models and simple UX.
- Delivering End-to-End Roadmaps – Prioritize ruthlessly, sequence experiments, and ship iterative value while aligning stakeholders on long-term objectives and key results.
- Elevating Merchant Productivity – Identify repetitive workflows, design automation that removes clicks and spreadsheets, and measure time saved, accuracy gains, and incremental sales.
- Influencing at Scale – Drive alignment across merch leaders, engineering, and cross-functional peers; mentor staff and senior PMs on best-in-class product practices.
- Measuring What Matters – Own KPIs tied to adoption, engagement, forecast accuracy, and lift; use experimentation and insights to prove impact and iterate.
What You’ll Bring
- Strategic Systems Thinker – You decompose ambiguous retail problems into scalable products and platforms, always asking “Why now? For whom? What’s the measurable outcome?”
- AI Fluency – Comfortable partnering with data scientists on model scope, training datasets, and “human in the loop” design; you can explain precision/recall trade-offs to non-tech execs.
- Merchant Empathy – You obsess over the day-in-the-life of a buyer, planner, and allocation manager, and you’ve shipped tools that improved their decision quality or speed.
- Data-Informed & Experiment-Driven – Dashboards are your compass, and every roadmap item has a success metric before it has a ship date.
- Compelling Communicator – From Figma mocks to concise briefs, you frame insights clearly and inspire action across diverse audiences.
- Builder & Coach – You’ve mentored PMs, established product rituals, and raised the bar on product craft across an organization.
