DoorDash Software Engineer (Mid-Level) Interview Preparation Guide

DoorDash's interview process for mid-level software engineers consists of 6 stages conducted over 2-3 weeks. The process recently transitioned from centralized to decentralized, meaning you interview for a specific role with that team's hiring manager. You'll progress through an initial recruiter screening, a technical phone screen focusing on complex problem-solving, and then a virtual onsite loop with 4 rounds covering coding, system design, domain knowledge, and behavioral assessment. The evaluation emphasizes both technical depth and cultural alignment with DoorDash's core values.
