Senior Mobile Engineer, Health

Back to jobs New Senior Mobile Engineer, Health United States & Canada Apply Who We Are Babylist is the leading platform for expecting and new families. More than 10 million people shop with Babylist every year, making it the go-to destination for seamless purchasing, guidance, and expert recommendations. As a modern, AI-forward tech company, Babylist has expanded from a universal registry into a full ecosystem — the Babylist Shop, Babylist Health, Babylist Money, NYC and LA showrooms, branded content, and more — generating $750M in revenue in 2025. Building the generational brand in baby, Babylist is reshaping the $235B kids and baby market and helping parents feel confident, connected, and cared for at every step. 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. How We Build Babylist is in the middle of a fundamental shift in how software gets made, and we are not tiptoeing into it. We are rebuilding our engineering culture around a simple belief: AI changes everything. How teams are structured, how decisions get made, how fast ideas become working software. Our engineers own problems end to end, working directly with product, design, and business partners with short feedback loops and real stakeholder access. We ship, learn, and iterate fast. When something is not working, we throw it out and start over — project failure and personal failure are not the same thing here. AI tools are as natural to our workflow as an IDE or version control. We are not exploring this, we are living it. Our engineers use AI to explore tradeoffs, pressure-test designs, and move from problem to solution in hours instead of days. They generate code with AI so they can stay focused on the decisions that actually require human judgment — not the routine ones. More velocity means more time for craft: better test coverage, stronger architecture, and deeper customer understanding. We hold ourselves to a higher quality bar because of AI, not in spite of it. We are building this playbook in real time, and we are looking for people who want to build it with us. If you have already changed how you work because of AI — or you are ready to — and you care more about shipping something great than following a prescribed process, we should talk. Our Tech Stack  Ruby on Rails AWS Sidekiq MySQL Redis UIKit SwiftUI Jetpack Compose Auto Layout Jetpack Libraries What the Role Is Babylist is looking for a passionate Senior Mobile Engineer to join our Babylist Health and Education team. Launched in October 2022, Babylist Health provides a user-friendly and transparent way for people to purchase breast pumps and breast pump accessories through insurance.

You will lead business-critical projects, make important decisions about how our systems grow and scale, and work on new strategic initiatives to expand our health and education offerings as we grow this business. Who You Are You build production-quality iOS or Android apps in Swift or Kotlin — you have deep expertise in one platform and solid working knowledge of the other, and you can speak fluently to the tradeoffs between them You're fluent in mobile architecture patterns — MVVM, MVC, and others — and you reach for the right one based on what you're building, not habit You know your platform's UI frameworks well — SwiftUI and/or Jetpack Compose, UIKit, Auto Layout, Jetpack libraries — and you build components in code, not just configure them You've shipped consumer-facing mobile products to real users and you care about what the experience feels like, not just whether the tests pass You've partnered closely with designers — you know how to read a Figma file, push back when something won't work on mobile, and close the gap between design intent and implementation You collaborate naturally with backend and full-stack engineers — you have opinions about API design and you're not afraid to say so 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.

To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
