Lead UX Designer, Voice
About Store No8
We are the incubation arm of Walmart. Store No8 was formed in 2017 as part of Walmart’s larger innovation mission to shape the future of commerce. We pursue big ideas and take risks by stepping outside of Walmart’s core business to focus on leapfrog capabilities across conversational commerce, mixed reality, in-store digitization, and more. Our ultimate goal: fuel Walmart’s core business, create new operational efficiencies, and unlock amazing experiences for our customers in the long-term.
The Design Team on the Conversational Commerce team crafts products that introduce conversational-based shopping experiences to customers via Text, Voice, and more. Our team is committed to radically improving the lives of our customers by removing the burden of planning and shopping on people’s everyday lives.
As a member of the Conversational Commerce Design team, you will champion our customer and experiences. You will develop deep empathy for the customer, develop UX strategies, develop experiences, rapid prototype when necessary and usability test when needed. We work on collaborative teams to solve complex conversational challenges and craft best in class experiences to solve the needs of the customers.
