Off-price fashion retailer with 1,000+ stores across North America
Burlington operates a large physical retail footprint (1,000+ stores in 46 US states plus DC and Puerto Rico) with active infrastructure modernization: projects span store remodels, new openings, and asset protection strategy, while hiring is heavily weighted toward junior retail and operations roles. The tech stack is traditional enterprise (Oracle, SQL Server, ServiceNow, Power BI) with no evidence of cloud migration or modern automation — a profile typical of mature retail operations focused on operational efficiency and loss prevention rather than digital transformation.
Notable leadership hires: Customer Service Lead, Creative Director, Warehouse Team Lead, Investigations Director, Maintenance Director
