Looking for Senior Backend Engineers to develop and operate backend services and architecture supporting DoorDash's product functionality.

DoorDash is building the world's most reliable on-demand, logistics engine for delivery! We're looking for experienced engineers to join our fast-growing engineering team to help us develop a 24x7, global infrastructure system that powers DoorDash's three-sided marketplace of consumers, merchants, and dashers.
And now, with our new São Paulo office, we offer an unique opportunity for fast tracking your career by experiencing an early venture and help DoorDash grow from a small team to one of the largest engineering hubs in the world.
At DoorDash, our mission to empower local economies shapes how our team members move quickly, learn, and reiterate in order to make impactful decisions that display empathy for our range of users—from Dashers to merchant partners to consumers. We are a technology and logistics company that started by enabling door-to-door delivery, and we are looking for team members who can help us go from a company that is known as the place you order food to a company that people turn to for any and all goods.
DoorDash is growing rapidly and changing constantly, which gives our team members the opportunity to share their unique perspectives, solve new challenges, and own their careers. We're committed to supporting employees’ happiness, healthiness, and overall well-being by providing comprehensive benefits and perks.

We’re looking for Senior Backend Engineers to work on both Product and Product Platform based teams. Product focused Engineers work at the intersection of product and infrastructure to solve key business problems with elegant technical solutions. You'll operate our backend services and architecture that support all product functionality and will be challenged to consider the big picture -- collaborating cross-functionally, as well as evaluating and executing on trade-offs to maximize business impact for the company. We expect Senior Engineers to be able to own projects end-to-end and mentor their junior and mid level peers.
This role is hybrid with some in-office time expected and will report to an Engineering Manager.
