You will have a direct influence on the scalability of our data systems during a pre-IPO growth moment. Enjoy a range of benefits, including flexible paid time off, parental leave, and wellness benefits.

• Architect and scale data engineering systems, focusing on pipeline generation, testing, and maintenance.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with analysts, data scientists, and product teams to enhance data infrastructure.
• Develop and maintain machine learning pipelines, ensuring integration with data infrastructure.

• Comfortable in AWS — you've provisioned and managed cloud data resources across EC2, S3, Lambda, and EKS
• Deeply fluent in Python and production-grade data engineering, with 7+ years building systems that hold up at scale
• Proficient with Airflow and dbt — you understand data modeling and ETL principles, not just the tooling
• Able to work cross-functionally with analysts and data scientists — translating their needs into infrastructure that actually serves them
• Platform-minded — you see repetitive data engineering work as a system design problem and build the scaffolding to automate it
• Familiar with Snowflake or comparable modern cloud data warehouses
• You naturally reach for AI in your work — at Babylist, every team uses AI daily. You're already using it to move faster and improve your output, and you stay curious about what's coming next
• You're genuinely excited about what AI can do - not just as a concept, but as something you want to get your hands on. At Babylist, every team uses AI daily, and we're looking for people who lean in
• Experienced building production AI/LLM systems — RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, tool integrations (e.g., MCP servers) that real users depend on, not just prototypes
