What the Role Is

Babylist is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Fulfillment and Operations team with deep experience with Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) like HighJump/Korber, Manhattan, Blue Yonder or any proprietary WMS to help us modernize and internalize our warehouse technology stack. This role is crucial as we seek to optimize our fulfillment operations. You’ll be the first to build and grow this area of our team, so we’re looking for a self-starter who thrives in ambiguity, can work independently, and is excited to shape the future of our logistics technology. This role may require occasional travel to our Fulfillment Center in Ohio, approximately 1–2 times per year.

Who You Are

• A high-performing engineer with 6+ years experience delivering end to end solutions that drive business growth.
• Serve as the internal subject matter expert for our HighJump/Koerber WMS, partnering with cross-functional stakeholders to deliver and optimize key fulfillment center functionality.
• Design, implement, and deploy solutions that improve fulfillment center efficiency.
• Translate real-world fulfillment center challenges into technical requirements and map them to the HighJump/Koerber system, often with limited specifications.
• Collaborate closely with our Technical Product Manager and in this domain to build solutions solving business-critical operational problems.
• Extensive experience in SQL and at least one other programming language.
• Possess a growth mindset, excellent communication skills, and a hunger to learn new things.

How You Will Make An Impact

• Provide thought leadership around process, tooling, systems, and software architecture. We benefit by more knowledge and learning how others solve problems. You will feel excited to bring in new ways of solving problems
• Improve and help maintain existing systems. Friction in the development process slows us down and has a large opportunity cost. You relish the opportunity to improve test coverage and delete thousands of lines of code
• Working in a close, supportive team solving real-world problems and making decisions
• Mentoring other team members through design and architecture planning, code reviews, and knowledge-sharing sessions
• Identifying opportunities for new product initiatives founded on your knowledge of the technical landscape and WMS capabilities

Why You Will Love Working At Babylist

• We invest in the infrastructure you’ll need to be supported and successful: tools, opportunities to connect with colleagues, and a stipend to help you set up your office
• We build products that have a positive impact on millions of people’s lives
• We work at a sustainable pace which means work/life balance is a real thing here
• We believe technology and data can solve hard problems
• We believe in exceptional management
• We offer competitive pay and meaningful opportunities for career advancement
