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.

This hybrid role layers on additional travel: approximately 50% of your time will be spent at our Columbus, OH fulfillment center, with future travel to additional sites (potentially West Coast) as the network grows. Open nationwide, with Midwest or East Coast locations preferred for easier travel logistics.

What the Role Is

As Manager, Continuous Improvement, you’ll drive operational transformation across Babylist’s fulfillment and logistics network—starting with our flagship fulfillment center in Commercial Point, Ohio. This role sits on the Supply Chain Strategy team, focused not just on improving today’s operations but designing systems and processes that support 20–40%+ future volume growth as Babylist continues to scale. This is not a traditional CI role focused on incremental tweaks. You’re here to diagnose structural problems and redesign how work flows across inbound freight, warehouse operations, and outbound parcel shipping.

Your time will split between on-site weeks at the fulfillment center and remote analytical work. During FC visits, you’ll walk the floor to observe pick/pack and receiving workflows, meet with warehouse leadership, and pressure-test process changes in real time. From home, you’ll dig into operational data in Excel and BI tools (PowerBI, Tableau, Sigma), partner with Product and Engineering to embed improvements into Babylist’s internal systems, and build the roadmaps that connect what you saw on the floor to what gets built next.

Who You Are

• 5+ years improving warehouse operations, transportation, or fulfillment in high-volume DTC e-commerce—not retail distribution, 3PL management, or manufacturing
• Direct experience on warehouse floors (inbound, outbound, returns, or transportation) in environments shipping thousands of orders daily—you’ve observed workflows firsthand, not just analyzed them from a desk
• Proven track record of independently identifying problems, building a data-backed case, and driving improvements to completion without waiting for someone to hand you a project plan
• Advanced Excel proficiency (large dataset analysis, pivot tables, operational modeling) plus hands-on experience building dashboards in PowerBI, Tableau, or Sigma
• Experience with warehouse systems: WMS (HighJump preferred), TMS, OMS, and parcel shipping platforms
• Demonstrated ability to partner with Product or Engineering teams to turn operational insights into technology-enabled solutions—you’ve shipped system improvements, not just recommended them
• Familiarity with Lean, Six Sigma, Kaizen, or other CI methodologies—you can apply the principles whether or not you hold certifications
• You build from scratch. If you need rigid playbooks and established processes to be effective, this isn’t the right fit. We’re a scale-up—you’ll create the playbook
• You earn trust across levels. You’re credible on the warehouse floor and persuasive in leadership conversations. If you default to either pure analytics or pure operations without bridging both, you’ll struggle here
• You’re comfortable with ambiguity and travel. This is a hybrid, home-based role with ~50% travel to fulfillment centers and collaboration with distributed teams across supply chain, product, and engineering
• You’re enthusiastic about working in an AI-forward environment where AI tools are part of daily operations. You embrace technology to enhance your work while keeping people at the center

How You Will Make An Impact

• Continuous improvement across inbound, fulfillment, and outbound—identifying bottlenecks, redesigning workflows, and implementing scalable solutions
• Operational data analysis (receiving throughput, dwell times, pick productivity, parcel cost per order, delivery speed) to isolate root causes and prioritize by ROI
• CI roadmaps built for where the business will be in a year, not just where it is today—designing for projected volume growth
• Cross-functional partnership with Product, Engineering, and internal technology teams to translate operational needs into system enhancements across WMS, TMS, and internal tooling
• Structured improvement projects end-to-end: problem definition, analysis, implementation, and performance measurement with measurable ROI
• KPIs and performance dashboards that give leadership real operational visibility
• Change management—driving adoption of new processes and tools with warehouse teams and cross-functional stakeholders
• Input on broader supply chain strategy: warehouse network scaling, automation opportunities, and future infrastructure decisions
