Our Ways of Working

We’re a remote-first company with team members located across the United States spanning multiple time zones. 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 so people can get the work done in the way that works for them and their teams. After all, many parents call Babylist their professional home, and sometimes, life puts you in a position where you just have to jump off that Zoom meeting to clean up that banana that’s getting stomped on by your 2 year old.

We know that personal connection is the foundation for the great work we do together. In order to quickly build those relationships, we offer the opportunity to meet with coworkers in person two times a year at a full company offsite and a departmental offsite. These 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. Most of our roles are fully remote, but these opportunities to meet in person will involve limited amounts of travel. For some leaders, there might be more opportunities to get together in person that would require about 10% travel to Oakland, CA or elsewhere.

What the Role Is

We’re looking for an energized, creative visual designer to join our design team to develop a wide array of assets to support our marketing strategies. Visual Designers at Babylist are creative thinkers who communicate their ideas and continuously collaborate with team members at various stages of conceptualization and design.

• Design projects and tasks effectively and simultaneously, and deliver assignments on time.

Who You Are

• Driven, passionate, versatile and open-­minded.
• Strong collaborative skills, working towards a common goal. Our designers are expected to bring ideas to the table.
• Able to give and receive feedback is a must. You thrive in an environment of constant feedback.
