DOORDASH DOT
BUILDING ROBOTS MADE FOR LOCAL DELIVERY
Dot is our in-house autonomous delivery robot: purpose-built to move orders through neighborhoods, fully electric, and integrated end to end with the Autonomous Delivery Platform. We’re hiring the engineers and operators at DoorDash Labs who are building it.

DOT AT A GLANCE
WHAT IT TAKES TO BUILD DOT
Dot runs on hardware, software, and operations all working together.
Hardware & Power
A fully electric robot with a redundant, fail-safe architecture and a removable battery, built to keep running between charges.
Autonomy & Software
Lidar, radar, and cameras give Dot 360-degree awareness, and AI-powered decision-making helps it move safely through neighborhoods. Dot also plugs into the same routing engine, merchant tools, and consumer app that already power DoorDash.
Operations
When Dot needs help, remote operators step in, backed by a local operations team on the ground.
MULTI-MODAL DELIVERY NETWORK
DoorDash is building a network that matches each order with the best delivery method: Dashers, drones, or autonomous ground robots like Dot. The Autonomous Delivery Platform makes that choice automatically, based on speed, cost, and location.
Ground Autonomy
Dot moves orders through neighborhoods on sidewalks, bike lanes, and roads.
Drone Delivery
DoorDash Air adds speed and efficiency, flying over traffic right to your door.
Dasher Network
Dashers remain essential, and autonomy adds capacity to keep pace with demand.
