PCB Layout Engineer - DoorDash Dot

About the Team

Door Dash Labs is Door Dash's autonomous delivery group, building the robots and hardware that move goods without a driver. The Hardware team designs the electronics at the core of these systems — digital and mixed-signal control boards, power and motor-control electronics, embedded firmware, and the test and integration benches that prove the whole system works. We're building out an experienced and diverse set of electrical engineers to increase our velocity, bandwidth, and operations.
