Each team takes ownership for solving customer problems in the best possible way.

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

We want to have all sorts of people in our team – people like you and me, and people different from you and me. To be able to work with diverse teammates – when it comes to gender, age, ethnicity, life background, sexual orientation, political views, religion, or any other personal trait – we consciously aim to offer equal opportunity for everyone to work with us. This is because we believe diverse teams make the most thought-through decisions and build things in the most inclusive way.

We are now looking to increase our focus on the traffic engineering aspects of our platform: it is a fast moving, highly critical area where complexity can grow quickly. We would love to see you joining our experienced team as a Cloud Networking Engineer! Our platform runs on AWS infrastructure. You will be working with VPC networking & Transit Gateways, Cloudfront CDN & Shield DDoS protection, EKS Kubernetes clusters & Ingress Controllers and be able to evolve our networking architecture and observability.

We will start with a small team of traffic engineers working within the Infrastructure team with the longer-term goal of owning the traffic and connectivity space end-to-end! In 2024 we will revisit our architectural choices in this domain and build for the future: scale, security, observability, automation and operability. There is a lot of ground to cover and work to be done!

📍This role can be based in one of our tech hubs in Helsinki or Stockholm, or you can work remotely anywhere in Finland or Sweden. Read more about our remote setup here. If you live outside of these countries - not to worry! We provide relocation support to help you make your way to Finland or Sweden.

• You are no stranger to large scale, high performance environments with constant change. You are able to architect, select and implement solutions in your technical domain.
• You have a strong background in networking and traffic engineering, you’re able to work up and down the stack from tcpdump to HTTP headers and gRPC. You’re comfortable with public cloud networking solutions at scale (AWS) and have exposure to network security tools, practices and solutions.
• You feel right at home working with public clouds, infra-structure-as-code (Terraform), containers, Kubernetes etc and understand the importance of automation.
• You are a team player: we work, learn and succeed together!

We are thrilled to see what other skills, ideas and hard learned lessons you bring to the team!

The position will be filled as soon as we find the right person, so make sure to apply as soon as you realize you really, really want to join us!

The compensation will be a combination of monthly pay and DoorDash RSUs. The latter makes it exceptionally easy to be excited about our company growing and doing well, as you’ll own a piece of the pie.
