Senior Data Engineer

What the Role Is

The Data team at Babylist powers decision-making across the entire business — from product growth to operations to AI. This is a senior individual contributor role on the Data Engineering team, sitting at the intersection of platform thinking and AI-native tooling. You'll own the architecture and systems that make data engineering itself more scalable — not just the pipelines, but the harnesses and agentic scaffolding that generate, test, and maintain them. You'll work cross-functionally with analysts, data scientists, and product teams to keep Babylist's data infrastructure reliable and ahead of where the business is going.

Who You Are

• Experienced building production AI/LLM systems — RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, tool integrations (e.g., MCP servers) that real users depend on, not just prototypes
• Platform-minded — you see repetitive data engineering work as a system design problem and build the scaffolding to automate it
• 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
• Comfortable in AWS — you've provisioned and managed cloud data resources across EC2, S3, Lambda, and EKS
• Familiar with Snowflake or comparable modern cloud data warehouses
• Able to work cross-functionally with analysts and data scientists — translating their needs into infrastructure that actually serves them
• 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.
