About this role
About the Team
DoorDash Labs is an independent team within DoorDash. As a fullstack engineer on the foundry team at DD Labs, you'll be responsible for building and maintaining web applications end-to-end — from React frontends to the backend services and APIs behind them — spanning both internal tools and external merchant-facing products that help build and scale our products to the next level. You'll be working on our React + Node.js tech stack, collaborating with engineers across the stack to design and architect scalable solutions to support all product functionality and will be challenged to consider the big picture and to maximize business impact.

• Be able to quickly prototype and develop internal web applications to support new product use cases
• Write robust, highly tested, well-crafted code that you are proud of
• Develop and define the architecture and tech stack across the frontend and backend for a new product area
• Design, build, and operate backend services and APIs (REST/gRPC) that power both internal tools and merchant-facing products.
• Brainstorm and come up with innovative solutions to enable scaling our operations at various stages
• Be excited to learn more about and contribute to other adjacent disciplines (data analysis, etc) when possible
We're excited about you because you have...
• B.S., M.S., or PhD. in Computer Science or equivalent
• 6+ years of industry experience
• Understanding of modern web stacks and architecture (HTTP, REST, gRPC)
• Strong foundations: vanilla JS, HTML5, CSS3
• Deep understanding of REST principles and designing and building backend APIs
• Experience designing and architecting web solutions working cross team with product and design
• Experience with React/Redux, or similar frameworks
• Experience working with Express and Node.js servers
• Experience with relational databases — schema design, query optimization (PostgreSQL or similar)
• Experience with documentation, unit and integration testing
Nice To Haves
