Problem Statement & Challenges

Problem Statement & Challenges

Problem Statement & Challenges

Operational teams at Walmart navigated 200+ fragmented modules to fulfill orders, relying heavily on manual decision-making.

This complexity slowed execution, increased errors, and created a strong dependency on training.

Annual training costs ranged from $774–$1,047 per associate, contributing to $5M+ in operational friction driven by cognitive overload, navigation inefficiencies, and communication delays.

My Contribution

My Contribution

My Contribution

I led the end-to-end design, research, and launch of an AI-powered fulfillment assistant that automated repetitive tasks and improved decision quality through transparent, explainable reasoning.

Through user sessions and workflow analysis, I defined the conversational strategy, interaction model, and safety guardrails partnering with Product and Engineering to prototype and operationalize autonomous fulfillment at scale.

Designing AI systems requires clarity, transparency, and ethical guardrails especially when decisions affect cost, time, and customer trust. Explainability and human control are central to adoption.

Future opportunities include role-based personalization, predictive recommendations, and applying the system to additional fulfillment domains.

The assistant was rolled out through phased deployment and live workflow validation across teams.
Workflows accelerated by 60%, 300+ daily support sessions were reduced, and the system unlocked $5M+ in operational savings.

What began as automation became a structural shift in how fulfillment decisions were made replacing fragmented coordination with unified, AI-assisted clarity.
