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

Build and scale data pipelines for ingestion into Snowflake — with a focus on reliability and performance across a $750M+ e-commerce business

Design and ship the agentic systems that perform data engineering work — pipeline generation, testing, and maintenance as automated systems, not one-off builds

Develop and maintain ML pipelines that help data scientists operationalize models and integrate them with our data infrastructure

Implement and improve data monitoring across complex, multi-system user journeys

Collaborate with Analytics Engineers on data modeling and the reliability of shared data assets

Partner with product, analyst, and ML teams to deliver end-to-end data solutions — from ingestion to advanced analytics and AI

Why This Role:

You’re building the meta-layer — not just pipelines, but the systems that build pipelines; it’s a rare scope for a data engineering role

The data infrastructure is solid; you’re extending and automating something that works, not inheriting a mess

AI is core to the mandate here, not a future aspiration — agentic data engineering is a real part of the roadmap, not a stretch goal

You’ll have direct influence on how a 9M+ user platform scales its data systems through a pre-IPO growth moment
