Senior Staff in San Francisco

About the Team DoorDash Labs is an independent team within DoorDash. We explore robotics and automation to transform last mile logistics in the long term. If you have a passion for applying robotics solutions in a service used by millions of people, then we want to talk to you! About the Role We are hiring a Software Integration Engineer for our Platform Integration team. This is a critical role with impact across the robot lifecycle, from manufacturing to daily operation. The Platform Integration team owns making sure the robot works as one cohesive system. The focus is on the interfaces between subsystems; this role in particular is focused on the software side handling interaction between: OS & software stack; firmware; networking; timing; and calibration. In this role, you will work cross functionally with our electrical, hardware, firmware, and autonomy engineers to support new functionality both in both hardware and software. This includes creating provisioning tools, functional tests, and supporting integration into the autonomy software stack. You will report to the Autonomy Platform Lead on our Autonomy Platform Team at DoorDash Labs. We expect this role to be hybrid with some time in-office and some time remote. You’re excited about this opportunity because you will… Play an integral role on a small and focused team. Lead system-level debug when an issue crosses subsystem boundaries or no single team can isolate it. Support early integration of new sensor and software component designs by identifying interface requirements, risks, dependencies and required checks. Design and maintain integration tests, test setups, and procedures to ensure subsystems, once combined, satisfy requirements and design intent. Build and maintain the mission-readiness checks used before manufacturing signoff, validation, field testing, or mission use for different robot platforms. Create the tools, checks, and debug guidance that Manufacturing Integration, Validation,

If you have a passion for applying robotics solutions in a service used by millions of people, then we want to talk to you! About the Role We are hiring a Firmware Validation & Integration Engineer for our autonomy software team. This is a critical role to build robust and scalable validation for our firmware and systems to ensure reliability at every level. In this role, you will work with our electrical, firmware, and autonomy engineers to build the infrastructure and test suites required to validate the system. This includes designing and implementing our Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation environments and automation frameworks from the ground up. You will report to the Autonomy Platform Lead on our Autonomy Platform Team at DoorDash Labs. We expect this role to be hybrid with some time in-office and some time remote. You’re excited about this opportunity because you will… Play an integral role on a small and focused team. Design and build Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) systems to simulate vehicle dynamics and sensor data for comprehensive firmware and system-level validation. Develop automated test infrastructure and software tools to exercise multiple embedded platforms throughout our robot system. Interface many layers of our control system including vehicle controls, power management, and motion control to ensure seamless system integration. Implement low-level test sequences and validation algorithms to safely stress-test vehicle components such as batteries, drive-train, and thermal management devices. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify edge cases and hardware-software corner cases that impact vehicle safety and performance. We’re excited about you because… BS/MS degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or related technical field. 5+ years of experience in validati
