[Remote] Staff Engineer, Site Reliability

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Babylist is the leading platform for expecting and new families, generating $750M in revenue in 2025. As a Staff Engineer in Site Reliability, you will manage and evolve the AWS infrastructure, ensuring reliability and performance for millions of users while supporting engineering teams across the organization.

Responsibilities

• Manage and evolve our AWS environment using Terraform, keeping EKS clusters, databases, and core services current and performant
• Own the speed and reliability of our CI systems for the full Engineering org — every deploy starts here
• Be the person engineers turn to when environments break; unblock them fast across local, staging, and production
• Establish and socialize best practices so the right people get paged for the right reasons
• Lead or support incident response, drive post-incident reviews, and close the loop so the same thing doesn't happen twice
• Contribute to architectural decisions that shape how Babylist's infrastructure evolves over the next several years

Skills

• Deep hands-on Terraform expertise — you own IaC, not just contribute to it
• Proven AWS experience at scale — EKS, RDS, cloud networking, DNS, CDNs, load balancers — you know the gotchas
• Experienced operating Kubernetes in production — you've debugged the hard stuff, not just deployed the easy stuff
• Comfortable designing and improving CI/CD systems — CircleCI, GitHub Actions, or similar; you care about developer velocity, not just pipeline uptime
• Strong observability instincts — Datadog, Sentry, PagerDuty, Cronitor — you build alerting that's actionable, not noisy
• Experienced with on-call and incident management — you've run the post-mortems and actually changed things afterward
• Comfortable supporting developers across local, staging, and production — you're a resource, not a gatekeeper
• 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

Benefits

• Competitive salary with equity and bonus opportunities
• Company-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Retirement savings plan with company matching and flexible spending accounts
• Generous paid parental leave and PTO
• Remote work stipend to set up your office
• Perks for physical, mental, and emotional health, parenting, childcare, and financial planning
