Jobs in California

About the Team The Decision Systems team helps DoorDash teams make faster, more rigorous, and more trustworthy decisions. We build the analytical systems, statistical methods, and product experiences that power experimentation, causal inference, rollout analysis, metric interpretation, and business impact measurement across DoorDash’s three-sided marketplace. Curie is DoorDash’s experiment analysis product within Decision Systems. It sits at the center of how teams move from hypothesis to analysis to confident action, helping decision makers understand experiments, rollouts, metric movements, and marketplace impact while preserving scientific rigor, velocity, trust, and interpretability. Our work spans experimentation platforms, causal inference, variance reduction, switchback experimentation, metric systems, and AI-assisted analysis workflows. We partner closely with data scientists, engineers, product managers, and operators across DoorDash to translate advanced methods into reliable, scalable systems that improve decision quality and product velocity. Some of the work done in the team was published in articles such as: Design-Aware Variance Reduction for Switchback Experiments: A Comparative Study , Power-Optimal Covariate Adjustment for Switchback Experiments , CUPED on Steroids: Multivariate Covariate Adjustment for Switchback Experiments . About the Role We are looking for a Staff Applied Scientist to provide scientific leadership for DoorDash’s Experimen
