We're bringing on experienced engineers to help us create and maintain a 24x7, no downtime, global infrastructure system that powers DoorDash’s three-sided marketplace of consumers, merchants, and dashers.</p> <h2><strong>About the Role</strong></h2> <p>We also offer “cloud solutions engineering”: we unblock teams across DoorDash with novel or complex cloud needs, from multi-cloud deployments and cross-cloud credential vending to multi-region sFTP. You will partner directly with teams across the company to take a need from an ambiguous request to production, and mature the most common ones into platform products that can be adopted widely.</p> <p>This role sits at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, security, and developer experience. It includes designing, building, and operating systems that must be reliable, secure, easy-to-use, and cost-efficient.</p> <p>You will report to the Engineering Manager of the Cloud Infrastructure team within the Infrastructure organization. This role is hybrid working from our New York City engineering hub.</p> <h2><strong>You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…</strong></h2> <ul> <li>Design and build the foundational cloud platform (account vending, IAM, cloud networking primitives, quotas, infrastructure as code) that every engineering team at DoorDash builds on top of</li> <li>Own the paved path for cloud at DoorDash: make the secure, cost-efficient way the easy way through self-service tooling</li> <li>Partner with product and platform teams to unblock complex or novel cloud use-cases, and turn the recurring ones into platform products</li> <li>Drive cloud-wide initiatives such as multi-cloud, unifying cloud foundations across DoorDash, Deliveroo, and Wolt, cost efficiency, and security posture</li> <li>Set technical direction for the team, mentor engineers, and influence cloud architecture decisions across the company</li> <li>Find ways to improve the team’s productivity and operational capabilities through the use of automation, AI tools, and other avenues</li> <li>Participate in a shared support rotation</li> </ul> <h2><strong>We’re excited about you because…</strong></h2> <ul> <li>You have 5+ years of experience as a software engineer in infrastructure, cloud, or platform engineering</li> <li>Deep, hands-on experience with AWS (IAM, Organizations, VPC, S3, ECR, etc.); GCP experience is a plus</li> <li>Experience with cloud networking primitives like VPC, PrivateLink, Transit Gateway and VPC peering.</li> <li>Experience with Infrastructure as Code tooling like Terraform and GitOps workflows such as Atlantis or ArgoCD</li> <li>Experience with programming languages like Go and Python</li> <li>Experience with Kubernetes</li> <li>Track record of taking ambiguous problems from customer teams to well-paved solutions that can be adopted across multiple teams</li> <li>You are curious, independent, ambitious, and can find solutions and make progress in an ambiguous and challenging environment</li> <li>You have proficiency in using AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) in the full software development lifecycle, including designing, generating code, testing, monitoring and releasing software</li> </ul> <h3><strong>Bonus points if you…</strong></h3> <ul> <li>Have built an internal cloud platform, landing zones, or account vending at scale</li> <li>Have multi-cloud experience, especially running workloads on GCP alongside AWS</li> <li>Have experience with cloud cost
