Post Jobs in Ottawa, ON

• Babylist’s Platform team is the foundation every engineering team builds on — and this role is at the center of keeping it reliable, fast, and scalable
• As a Staff SRE, you’ll own the infrastructure and reliability practices that support 9 million+ users and the engineers who build for them
• Babylist started as an e-commerce and registry platform, and we’re actively growing beyond that — into health, media, mobile, and new product surfaces that don’t exist yet
• The Platform team is the foundation that makes all of it possible
• This isn’t a maintenance role — you’ll be actively evolving how we build and operate AWS infrastructure, CI systems, and developer tooling
• You’ll work cross-functionally across all of Babylist Engineering, which means your decisions have wide leverage
• Infrastructure ownership — manage and evolve our AWS environment using Terraform, keeping EKS clusters, databases, and core services current and performant
• CI/CD reliability — own the speed and reliability of our CI systems for the full Engineering org — every deploy starts here
• Developer support — be the person engineers turn to when environments break; unblock them fast across local, staging, and production
• Monitoring & alerting standards — establish and socialize best practices so the right people get paged for the right reasons
• Incident response — lead or support incident response, drive post-incident reviews, and close the loop so the same thing doesn’t happen twice
• Platform strategy — contribute to architectural decisions that shape how Babylist’s infrastructure evolves over the next several years
• Platform is the team every engineering team depends on — your work has outsized leverage across the entire product org, not just one area
• The infrastructure is solid but actively evolving — you’re not inheriting chaos, you’re shaping what comes next
• This is a staff-level role with real cross-team visibility — you’ll influence how Babylist engineers build and ship, not just keep the lights on
• You’ll work on systems that support millions of families at a high-stakes life moment — the scale is real and the product context makes the reliability work matter
