  • Keep Walmart's Carlsbad, NM site running while improvements ship underneath

  • Strong time-management skills and a bias toward action
  • Confident communicator across email, calls, and in-person meetings
  • Ability to thrive both independently and as part of a tight-knit team
  • The instinct to ask "what would change your mind?" before debating
  • The discipline to document while it's fresh, not after it's forgotten
  • The discipline to finish the boring 20% that makes the rest matter
