Original job description

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're hiring a State Estimation & Perception Engineer in our Autonomy Software team. In this role, you'll own and develop the perception and state estimation for our package pickup and delivery system. You'll influence system design decisions, including sensor selection, sensing architecture, and observability analysis, at the earliest stage when choices still matter.

You're excited about this opportunity because you will…

Play an integral role on a small and focused team
Own tuning and implementation of the state estimation stack on the drone (PX4 EKF modifications, fault tolerance, multi-sensor fusion with VIO and laser odometry)
Own state estimation and perception of the delivery mechanism, including dynamics modeling, observation model design, and sensor selection
Work closely with controls and planning to close the loop on automated pickup and delivery
Work closely with the hardware team to define sensing principles and sensor placement
Design and execute flight test campaigns to validate estimator performance
Identify and resolve failure modes in estimation (degenerate geometries, sensor dropout, initialization)

We're excited about you because…

You have deep experience with state estimation and filtering (EKF, UKF, MSCKF, particle filters)
You have experience with optimization-based methods (factor graphs, GTSAM, Ceres, SymForce)
You have experience with visual-inertial odometry (VIO) and/or laser odometry (LIO)
You're proficient in modern computer vision (feature extraction, tracking, depth estimation)
You have strong C++ and/or Rust skills, with Python for prototyping and analysis
You have experience deploying estimation on real hardware with real sensor noise
You can derive an EKF from scratch, including process model, measurement model, observability analysis, and consistency checks
You have deep linear algebra knowledge (matrix decompositions, sparsity exploitation, numerical conditioning)
You've closed a perception-to-control loop on real hardware under degraded conditions
You're comfortable operating at the intersection of theory and embedded reality
You're driven by a passion for delivering outstanding customer experiences
You have a proactive approach to development, often crafting new tools
MS/PhD degree in CS, EE, ME, Robotics, or related technical field

Nice to have experience includes

Experience with PX4 / ArduPilot EKF internals
Experience with multi-body state estimation (tethered or suspended payloads)
Familiarity with SLAM in GPS-denied environments
Publications or open-source contributions in state estimation or VIO
You've debugged estimator failures in the field, not just in simulation

Applications for this position are accepted on an ongoing basis

Above and beyond discrimination and harassment based on “protected categories,” we also strive to prevent other subtler forms of inappropriate behavior (i.e., stereotyping) from ever gaining a foothold in our office. Whether blatant or hidden, barriers to success have no place at DoorDash. We value a diverse workforce – people who identify as women, non-binary or gender non-conforming, LGBTQIA+, American Indian or Native Alaskan, Black or African American, Hispanic or Latinx, Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, differently-abled, caretakers and parents, and veterans are strongly encouraged to apply.

Notice Regarding Use of AI and Automated Tools: To streamline our hiring process, DoorDash utilizes an automated recruitment tool called Metaview.

How it works: Metaview assists our recruiting team by evaluating job related qualifications and characteristics in connection with hiring. The tool is designed and used to support - rather than replace - human decision-making; trained personnel make final decisions with meaningful human review and oversight, and DoorDash does not use Metaview or other AI-enabled tool in a manner that has the effect of subjecting applicants or employees to discrimination based on any protected characteristic or proxy or for engaging in any protected activity under applicable law.

In compliance with New York City Local Law 144, the independent bias audit summary for Metaview is publicly available for review at https://trust.warden-ai.com/metaview/application-review.
