About the role

Come help us build the world's most reliable on-demand, logistics engine for delivery! We're bringing on experienced engineers to help us create and maintain a 24x7, no downtime, global infrastructure system that powers DoorDash’s three-sided marketplace of consumers, merchants, and dashers.

At DoorDash, our platform engineers work on everything from backend systems to beautiful and thoughtful user interfaces, to scaling products that will automate human processes and make deliveries happen as fast as possible.

About the Team

The mission of Developer Platform is to scale and empower DoorDash engineers by creating delightful and productive developer experiences - empowering them to do their work quickly and confidently. Developer Platform will solve DoorDash’s top engineering challenges across two pillars: Productivity and Platforms. With the toolset and infrastructure Developer Platform puts in place, every engineer should feel empowered rather frustrated. They should feel safe to build and deploy rapidly, without sacrificing our number one feature: reliability. When we’ve done our job right our engineers are able to focus on delighting customers and elevating our platform.

Our web engineers particularly need our help. As a member of the Web Infrastructure team, you will be focused on modernizing our tech stack, standardizing frameworks, and providing novel ways to scale both the performance of our apps and the productivity of our engineers. DoorDash offers a flexible work arrangement. Candidates must be located near one of our Engineering hubs: San Francisco, Sunnyvale, Los Angeles, Seattle, & New York.
