PCB Layout Engineer

DoorDash USA•Oakland, CA

8h•$170,000 - $250,000•Hybrid

About The Position

DoorDash Labs is DoorDash's autonomous delivery group, building the robots and hardware that move goods without a driver. The Hardware team designs the electronics at the core of these systems — digital and mixed-signal control boards, power and motor-control electronics, embedded firmware, and the test and integration benches that prove the whole system works. We're building out an experienced and diverse set of electrical engineers to increase our velocity, bandwidth, and operations. You'll bring PCB layout in-house — a core quality goal — owning floorplanning, stackups, and layout while coordinating closely with mechanical, thermal, and SI/PI engineering to land complete, manufacturable boards. You will report into the Director, Electrical Engineering on our Hardware team in our DoorDash Labs organization. Our offices are open, and depending on the role this position is hybrid or fully onsite — expect to be fully onsite when needed.

Requirements

Strong PCB layout experience across digital and mixed-signal boards
Familiar with stackup technologies, their limitations and considerations, and cost/lead-time impacts
Controlled-impedance and high-speed routing know-how; PI/PDN fundamentals
Proficient in a professional layout tool (Altium, Cadence, or similar)
Comfortable coordinating with mechanical, thermal, and SI/PI engineering

Responsibilities

Perform floorplan analysis and create stackups, layout, and footprints
Work with mechanical engineering to ensure fit and form compatibility with mechanical systems
Work with thermal engineering to ensure a thermally sound layout
Work with SI/PI engineering to ensure the board design is complete and robust
Drive toward consistently high-quality layout
