Babylist thrives as a remote-first company, with HQ team members located across the U.S. and Canada. We meet in person twice a year—once as a company and once by department to strengthen the relationships that power our work. We show up consistently, stay purpose-driven, and achieve results —together, from anywhere.

Our Tech Stack

• HighJump/Korber/Infios Warehouse Advantage
• Microsoft SQL Server
• SQL

What the Role Is

Babylist is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Fulfillment and Operations team with deep experience with HighJump/Koerber/Infios Warehouse Management Systems (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
