Senior🎓
Top SchoolWill Erickson is a Staff Software Engineer in Seattle with 11 years of experience building highly scalable distributed systems, currently driving delivery at DoorDash after a long tenure at Amazon. He has repeatedly led cross-functional efforts to replace legacy processes with visual, service-based solutions—from jurisdiction management and package-tracking systems to a device messaging client and OTA update logic for consumer devices. Will blends deep technical craft (C++, cross-compilation, linear-programming optimization) with pragmatic engineering leadership, mentoring junior engineers and establishing automated build and test practices. He’s particularly skilled at translating complex operational needs into maintainable software and once learned Korean language mechanics to ship a high-performance mobile text engine that closed a multi-million dollar deal—an example of his willingness to learn domain details to deliver results.
