About The Team

DoorDash is revolutionizing the delivery experience for merchants and customers by offering the next generation of fulfillment services. We’re looking for someone to join the Commerce Platform New Verticals team to rapidly scale our next big bet.

About The Role

The Manager, Commerce Platform Strategy & Operations will build the roadmap for how our product stands apart in the market. You will call the shots on how we distinguish our service experience against our competitors and drive growth within our partnership portfolio. You will be responsible for proposing new service offerings, building business cases, designing implementation strategies, scaling new services across the network, and driving adoption. You will work cross-functionally with product, engineering, operations, and business development to bring your vision to life.

The ideal candidate for this role should be a self-starter with an entrepreneurial mindset, able to take ownership of ambiguous opportunities and build structured product and service strategies from scratch.

Develop the product strategy to grow a high-potential offering within a high-growth business, with a focus on Merchant and Customer Experience

Build

Build hands-on the processes, tools, and connections to achieve that growth.

Collaborate

: You value partnerships, and will excel at working both directly with our Merchants and across Product, Business Development, Operations, Engineering, and more to build out the next differentiated product offering for our business.

Analyze

You are adept at analyzing complex data sets paired with partner team feedback to provide insights and recommendations to our leadership.

We’re excited about you because…

You have 6+ years of experience, ideally with experience in consulting, strategy & operations, or product management at a tech, retail/ecom, or logistics company

You imagine, develop, and execute on workstreams from start to completion with little oversight

You have a talent for summarizing complex problems, and can translate high-level goals into actionable plans

You oscillate easily from strategic considerations to tactical execution

Are a self-starter who is energized by a difficult problem

You display extreme ownership across every workstream while ruthlessly prioritizing what will actually move the needle

You maintain a careful balance between attention to detail and swift execution

You operate comfortably in ambiguous environments while maintaining a strong bias for action
