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!

We're hiring a Planning & Controls Engineer in our Autonomy Software team. In this role, you'll own and develop flight control, motion planning, and mission planning algorithms for robust, fault-tolerant drone delivery. This is a hands-on role: you will design controllers, implement them in C++ on embedded platforms, test them in flight, and iterate.

You're excited about this opportunity because you will…

• Play an integral role on a small and focused team
• Develop and tune low-level flight control algorithms for overactuated multirotor and hybrid aircraft on embedded platform
