Lowe's Tech Surge: From Hammers to Hacker Havens
Despite the US housing market playing dead, Lowe's is moonlighting as Silicon Valley's home improvement cousin, paying software engineers up to $234,000—more than most folks make fixing leaky faucets. With an AI-powered 'Mylow' app launched in 2025 to help employees 'build competence early' (because nothing says DIY like corporate-speak), they’re hiring hundreds of tech wizards on H-1B visas near Charlotte, NC. Senior directors rake in up to $300K, probably enough to finally understand what customers actually want. Meanwhile, 3,700 jobs lay open amid 270,000 employees, proving that lumberjack skills alone won't placate the AI overlords taking over aisle three.
