São Paulo, Brazil · Posted 6 months agoDescription
Engineering the future of logistics – from Brazil to the world
This role is part of our commitment to increase the representation of women in technology at DoorDash Brazil. We strongly encourage candidates who identify as women to apply.
We are building an engineering team where women have equitable access to opportunity, leadership, and long-term career growth within our São Paulo hub.
At DoorDash, we believe diverse teams build better products. This opportunity is designed to create greater equity in access to engineering roles and long-term career growth within our São Paulo engineering hub.
DoorDash is building the world’s most reliable on-demand logistics platform. As part of our global expansion, we are investing heavily in Brazil and growing our engineering presence in São Paulo. This is a unique opportunity to join one of Silicon Valley’s fastest-growing companies—while staying close to home.
We’re looking for Backend Engineers who are excited to solve real-world problems at scale. You’ll work on product teams or platform teams that power our three-sided marketplace of Consumers, Dashers, and Merchants. From improving restaurant discovery to optimizing delivery logistics, you’ll help shape the experience of millions of users.
You’ll work alongside experienced engineers, product managers, and designers—many based in the U.S.—so fluency in English and strong collaboration skills are essential.
What you’ll do
- Design, build, and maintain large-scale backend systems used by millions of users
- Contribute to our technical roadmap and define the architecture for key product areas
- Drive improvements in performance, scalability, reliability, and security
- Help transition parts of our monolithic codebase to a microservices architecture
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams across Brazil and the U.S.
- Work on high-impact features that directly improve the user experience for Dashers, Merchants, or Consumers
We’re excited about you because…
- You have 1+ years of experience with backend technologies and distributed systems
- 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
- You’re comfortable with modern web architecture (HTTP, REST APIs, grpc, microservices)
- You’ve worked with relational and non-relational databases
- You enjoy solving complex problems with elegant code and clear thinking
- You’re fluent in English and confident participating in meetings and code reviews in English
- You care about quality and write tests to ensure your code works as expected
- You take ownership and enjoy working with autonomy in a fast-paced environment
Nice to haves
- Experience working at a tech company with scale
- Familiarity with Java, Kotlin, or similar JVM languages
- Exposure to big data technologies or event-driven architecture
- Interest in mentorship or growing into a technical leadership role
Why join DoorDash Brazil?
- Work on a global product, with real impact on millions of people
- Be part of a fast-growing engineering hub in São Paulo
- Hybrid remote model with great office space in Av. Paulista
- English immersion and opportunities to grow your international career
- Contribute to a modern, scalable platform used across multiple countries
- Build the future of local commerce with a team that values ownership, humility, and getting 1% better every day
- Be part of a growing engineering organization committed to building inclusive teams and equitable opportunities
