This means we put in extra effort to make sure we connect and collaborate in ways that make sense for us. We know how valuable the flexibility of remote work is for our employees.We know that personal connection is the foundation for the great work we do together. In order to build those relationships with team members in other cities, we meet with coworkers in person two times a year at a full company offsite and a departmental offsite. These offsites are expected of employees and are great opportunities to meet the people you work with every day and to do some of the work that is much more difficult to do virtually.Our Tech StackRuby on RailsShopifyAWSMySQLSidekiqRedisReactNative iOS and AndroidWhat the Role IsThe Senior Engineering Manager, Babylist Shop will lead the most critical initiatives for Babylist on our path to becomingthespecialty retailer in baby commerce.
