The Nordstrom Innovation Lab is a new, and growing, team. We act like a startup inside of a large company: we move through ideas quickly, using whichever technologies make sense. We also walk the agile walk: the lab is a collaborative workspace with stickies and note cards everywhere, and we follow agile engineering practices like pairing and test-driven development. On the customer-facing side, we use ideas from both lean manufacturing and lean startup.
If you like how this sounds, we’d love to talk to you!

- Thrive on challenge. When did you fail last?
- Are curious & always learning. What are you working on right now?

- Have mastered at least one programming langua! ge, but are not married to it.
- Can wear many hats.
WHAT WE BUILD
- A new product every week or two.

- Risky projects: we expect 80% to fail.
- High leverage: the 20% that succeed have a huge impact.
- New & diverse technologies: web, mobile, Kinect, and sometimes even infrastructure.
