About the Team The Storage teams build and operate online stateful systems and abstractions that are reliable, efficient, secure and easy to use for DoorDash Engineering. The teams are responsible for understanding Product Engineering’s evolving needs and developing platform and infrastructure capabilities to serve them. The team currently supports CockroachDB, Cassandra, Kafka and Redis as well as data abstraction services to reduce the complexity of interacting with storage systems for Product Engineers. About the Role The Storage team is building and operating a high-performance, scalable, and reliable data abstraction layer that optimizes both efficiency and reliability. Our goal is to create a platform that manages itself and fades into the background—empowering engineers to focus on delivering product experiences our customers love. This role is available across two teams within Storage, each solving unique and high-impact challenges: One team is building the orchestration layer for DoorDash’s storage platform—unifying lifecycle management, operations, and self-serve APIs for databases and streaming systems, turning complex, stateful infrastructure into reliable, developer-friendly services used across the company. One team builds and operates the distributed data platform powering DoorDash's largest stateful workloads -- including Cassandra, which backs critical product surfaces across DoorDash, Wolt, and Roo. You'll design high-throughput data abstractions, smart clients, and platform services that make distributed data reliable and easy to work with at multi-petabyte, multi-million-QPS scale, with opportunities to go deep on distributed systems internals and contribute to the open-source Cassandra ecosystem. If you're passionate about distributed systems, developer experience, and building foundational infrastructure at scale, we'd love to hear from you. You must be located in San Francisco, Sunnyvale, Seattle, or the New York Metro Area for this hybrid pos

At Vanta, our mission is to help businesses earn and prove trust. We believe that security should be monitored and verified continuously, and we empower companies to practice better security and prove it with ease. Vanta has a kind and talented team, and while some have prior security experience, many have been successful at Vanta without it. Vanta's Governance and Compliance platform is the operating layer enterprises trust to run their security programs. We are hiring an engineer who will own the architectural foundation that makes it work for their most complex organizational structures. Program Structure and Trust is a newly chartered group at Vanta with a focused mission: build the enterprise org model that lets customers bring their compliance and security structure — product lines, business units, isolated data environments, cross-cutting audits, scoped approvals, and data residency requirements — natively into the platform. The problems this team solves determine whether Vanta can serve the enterprise customers it's increasingly winning. This is the defining technical role of the group. The Principal Engineer owns the design, phased delivery, and long-term technical direction of Vanta's enterprise org model — a multi-quarter initiative that cuts across the platform and establishes the foundation for how enterprise customers structure, segment, and operate inside Vanta. Visit our Vanta Engineering Blog to learn more about what our team is working on! What you’ll do as a Principal Engineer at Vanta: Own the design and multi-quarter delivery of Vanta's enterprise org model, including hierarchical product lines and business units, isolated data access and ownership, cross-cutting audit workflows, scoped approvals, and EU and GovCloud data residency support Define and evolve the core abstractions that let the platform absorb structurally diverse, often conflicting enterprise requirements — solving for the general case rather than one-off customer accommodations R

Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way. The Community You Will Join: Everyone at Airbnb thinks about trust, but our team obsesses over it daily. At the core of trust is safety, and thus we spend a significant amount of our time and energy keeping the community safe. The Trust team is responsible for developing the technology that helps protect our community and platform from fraud while also ensuring our hosts, guests, homes, and experiences meet our high standards. We constantly work to fight against online fraud (such as monetary loss, compromised accounts, spam and scam in messages, fake inventory, etc.) as well as offline fraud (theft, property damage, personal safety, etc.). We also work on onboarding and screening of users, and think about complex topics like identity and reputation to ensure that every interaction with Airbnb helps build trust in us and our community. The Trust Frontier AI team is where new AI technology for Trust gets invented and proven. We build specialized models for mission-critical trust and safety problems, develop the AI agents and agentic capabilities that automate trust decisions, and create the benchmarks and evaluation harnesses that keep decision quality high as those agents take on more autonomy. We work on problems before the answer is known — prototyping, experimenting, and iterating with our partner teams until a solution proves itself against real business and top line metrics. You'll work side-by-side with talented product managers, data scientists, software engineers, fraud intelligence, and operations teams. Together, you'll design and build ML solutions that have direct, meaningful impact on user trust, b
