Our Ways of Working 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, leverage AI to amplify our impact, and achieve results—together, from anywhere. What the Role Is As a Senior Support Operations Analyst, you'll be the technical architect behind Babylist's Customer Support infrastructure—building the systems, insights, and AI-powered tools that help our CS organization scale efficiently without sacrificing quality.

This role requires both technical depth and strategic thinking. You can write complex SQL, build dashboards independently, and troubleshoot integrations—while also knowing when to automate versus when human touch matters. You'll serve as the bridge between technical teams and operations, enabling CS managers and offshore teams with self-service analytics they can use. If you've thrived in fast-moving scale-ups building reporting infrastructure from scratch and implementing chatbot solutions that actually worked, this role will energize you.
