About Lowe's India

Lowe's India in Bangalore is a mature retail technology GCC that has grown significantly since its 2014 establishment through acquisition into a substantial engineering hub serving Lowe's US home improvement business. The centre works across the retail technology spectrum — from customer-facing e-commerce and mobile applications to back-office supply chain optimisation, pricing engines, and data analytics that drive operational decisions across Lowe's 1,740 stores. India engineers hold product ownership over several critical technology systems, including the pricing and promotions engine.

The centre's most significant recent engineering achievement was the completion of the e-commerce re-platforming project, which migrated Lowes.com from a legacy monolithic architecture to a microservices-based, cloud-native platform on AWS. This multi-year effort, with India teams playing a central engineering role, significantly improved the scalability and feature velocity of Lowe's digital commerce capabilities. Machine learning capabilities are developing, with teams building demand forecasting models and personalisation algorithms for the Pro contractor segment.

Lowe's India targets 5,000 employees by 2027, with growth in data science, supply chain technology, and Pro segment digital tools. The Manyata Embassy Business Park campus provides good infrastructure, and Lowe's sustained investment in technology as a strategic differentiator creates a clear engineering mandate for the India centre.
