Our Ways of Working
Babylist is remote‑first with team members across the U.S. and Canada who move fast, think smart, and use AI as part of how they work every day — not as an experiment, as an expectation. We come together twice a year to build the relationships behind the work, and we hire people who are genuinely excited about what's possible and prove it through how they show up.
What the Role Is
Babylist is looking for a Senior IT Engineer to help strengthen the systems that keep our employees secure, productive, and able to move quickly. This role sits at the intersection of identity, access, endpoint management, and employee experience — with a heavier focus on building and evolving our IAM infrastructure as the company scales.
You’ll own and improve the systems that manage authentication, provisioning, access lifecycle, and endpoint compliance across a primarily macOS, cloud‑first environment. That includes deep hands‑on work in Okta, partnering across the business, and building the operational foundation that keeps access secure without creating unnecessary friction for employees. You’ll also support endpoint management initiatives across tools like Jamf, Intune to help ensure devices stay healthy, compliant, and easy to manage at scale.
This is a highly collaborative, hands‑on role for someone who likes solving operational problems, tightening systems, and building infrastructure that quietly makes the entire company work better. If you prefer highly static environments with rigid playbooks already built, this role will feel uncomfortable — a big part of the job is improving systems while operating them.
Who You Are
7+ years in IT engineering or systems administration, with a track record of owning identity, access, and endpoint infrastructure in cloud‑first environments — and a demonstrated ability to keep secure systems from becoming friction for the people who use them
Deep experience designing and managing identity lifecycle workflows — provisioning, deprovisioning, access groups, MFA, API integrations, and entitlement management are familiar territory
Hands‑on Okta expertise across the full ecosystem, including Workflows, Device Trust, API Access Management, and SSO integrations across SaaS platforms
Experience working with HRIS as a source of truth for identity — using employee data to drive provisioning, deprovisioning, and access lifecycle automation across the organization
Experience administering Google Workspace at scale — managing users, groups, policies, and integrations across a distributed workforce
Solid networking fundamentals with hands‑on Cisco Meraki experience — you understand how DNS, DHCP, VLANs, firewalls, and VPNs fit together and can troubleshoot connectivity issues without needing someone else to translate
Proven ability to troubleshoot complex issues independently and serve as a technical resource for the people around you — you stay calm in messy systems and work problems through to resolution
Genuinely excited about what AI can do within IT — and already getting your hands on it. You’re looking for ways to automate repetitive ops tasks, streamline access workflows, and bring smarter solutions to identity and device management. At Babylist, every team uses AI daily and we’re looking for people who push it forward, not just follow it.
Nice to Have
Okta Certified Administrator and/or advanced Jamf certifications
How You Will Make An Impact
Own and evolve identity infrastructure — authentication policies, lifecycle management, and access governance across the company
Manage provisioning, entitlement reviews, service accounts, and role‑based permissions across business‑critical systems
Maintain and improve device management across a primarily macOS fleet, ensuring devices stay compliant, healthy, and easy to support at scale
Strengthen MFA, device trust, and endpoint security controls while keeping employee workflows usable

Support audits, access reviews, and system assessments to ensure alignment with security standards and operational policies
Build scalable documentation, runbooks, and operational practices that make systems easier to support as the company grows
Serve as a technical escalation point for the broader IT team — jumping in on complex issues, driving root‑cause improvements, and actively investing in the growth and development of the people around you. And yes, that includes jumping into the helpdesk queue when the team needs it.
