Walmart is hiring : Manager, Creative Automation in Bentonville

Position Summary

Are you the kind of builder who loves turning manual, 200 step workflows into one click reality? As Manager, Creative Automation at Sam’s Club, you’ll make automation real—configuring AEM to auto ingest and organize assets, standing up preprocessing pipelines that handle the heavy Photoshop style lifting in batch, and wiring integrations so finished assets syndicate cleanly to our owned channels (site, app, email, push, SMS). Reporting to the Senior Manager, you’ll translate strategy into shippable automations, fix fragile handoffs into our campaign management platform with preflight checks, and prove impact by shortening time to market, reducing manual touches, and raising first pass success—without compromising brand standards or accessibility.

What you'll do...

• Implement intake standards and configure automated AEM ingestion so assets land correctly—no manual filing.
• Stand up a batch transformation pipeline for common tasks with quality gates and error handling.
• Build a CMAT pre-flight so assets “just work” on first pass—reducing rework and ticket ping-pong.
• Break the automation roadmap into tickets, playbooks, and SOPs; set up intake / triage, SLAs, and dashboards in our work / project management tooling.
• Integrate creative tools with AEM, CMAT, and owned channels; automate channel-specific renditions / payloads and confirmations, with monitoring / alerts for failures.
• Convert ~200 manual actions into guided, templatized flows with brand / legal / accessibility checks embedded; enable self-serve steps where appropriate.
• Document and maintain SOPs; deliver training for internal teams and agencies; run weekly automation health checks and publish a scorecard tracking manual touches, cycle time, first-pass approval (FPA), distribution latency, reuse, and cost per asset.
• Partner with creatives and marketers to collect feedback, tune templates / prompts, and embed simple A / B hooks so learnings flow back into the system.
• Extend automations to priority merchandising and lifecycle programs across site / app / email / notifications; mature governance (audit trails, permissions, rollbacks).
• Proactively gather requirements from busy partner teams, sequence work, remove blockers, and keep day-to-day execution moving—even when org lines are fuzzy.
• Contribute to team targets such as 40–60% fewer manual touches, 25–40% faster time-to-market, and 80–90% CMAT first-pass success—with clear before / after data.
