  • Worked within Google's team to gather requirements and improved delivery time by 30% (down from an average of 14 minutes to 8 minutes) by providing actionable insights and pushing key decisions (new infrastructure built).

  • Conducted UI/UX and User Acceptance Testing (UAT), and assisted in rolling out and deploying new features (e.g., navigation bar, push notifications), which saved over $2,000 per month in order refund costs, and significantly reduced customer reports.

DoorDash Lab Accomplishment

High-Level Overview:  

DoorDash Lab, the research and development division of DoorDash is launching a delivery sector called drone delivery where the customer can receive order from the sky and it is currently only available at Christiansburg, Virginia(pilot site),  Dallas-Fort-Worth, and Frisco, Texas(logistics-plannings)  

Wing = supply the drone and facilities,alphabet Inc. subsidiary, X project, Moonshot factory 

Most Notable Accomplishment:  

  • pushed the decision to build a closeby loading station - with data to backup - reduced avg delivery time from 14 min -> 10 min
  • Container change -> better quality of food -> less packaging time -> reduced avg delivery time to below 8 mins
  • Understand the user, what the customer wants and use their feedback to build our application - with python script that automates entire feedback collection process

            Features that were added to the app after my recommendations: 

                     ■ Hours of operation  

                     ■ Drone only label to each menu item  

                     ■ Shift terms of agreement before checkout page  

                     ■ Allow customer to select multiple drop off locations  

                     ■ Allow customer to reroute order to a normal dasher after technical issue
