About the Team

We are revolutionizing the delivery experience for merchants and customers by offering the next generation of fulfillment services. We’re looking for someone to join the Drive team to rapidly scale our next big bet and disrupt the delivery industry.

About the Role

We are looking for someone who is passionate about scaling high growth businesses to join our rocketship on Drive, DoorDash’s white label fulfillment offering. You will be responsible for growing one of the most nascent Drive products by leading complex, cross-functional projects that scale strategic partnerships and unlock product-market fit. In this highly collaborative role, you’ll serve as the connective tissue between product, ops, business development, and external partners-driving end-to-end execution, ensuring alignment on goals, and delivering results.

Success depends on your ability to understand our partners’ goals and business models inside and out-translating that insight into clear priorities and actionable roadmaps. You’ll drive initiatives from concept to launch, working closely with product, ops, and business teams to ensure alignment and impact. We’re looking for a first-principles thinker with a strong sense of ownership-someone who can dive deep into the details while also shaping the bigger picture.

Reporting to the Manager of Drive Strategy and Operations, you will work closely with product, engineering, operations, integrations, business development teams to make your vision a reality.

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

• Strategize – Understand the needs of our partners, prioritize those needs by impact, and create solutions with cross-functional partners
• Operate – Get to the lowest level of detail, and scale. You will work directly with internal and external partners to execute on your short & long-term plans; you are a cross functional success enabler and an excellent operator.
• Build – Develop and lead 0 to 1 opportunities, creating the roadmap for future growth vectors and determine how to invest our resources to achieve desired outcomes.
• Collaborate – Value partnerships, and excel at working across Operations, Product, Sales, Engineering, and more to bring new products and services to merchants.
• Construct – Navigate in an ambiguous environment and bring structure to undefined opportunities. There won’t always be playbooks or templates; instead you will create them.
• Analyze – Leverage data whenever possible to inform your hypothesis and convince cross functional partners.

We’re excited about you because…

• You have an extreme sense of ownership. You display extreme ownership for the products and business lines that you are responsible for. You never shy away from raising your hand to solve ambiguous problems and are able to motivate and empower your teammates to go above and beyond.
• You solve problems from first principles. You’re excited to solve problems in innovative ways, and you resist “this is how it’s always been done” thinking.
• You thrive with a diverse set of responsibilities. You love working across a breadth of disciplines and teams.
• You’re an analytical powerhouse. You let data win arguments, and you’re comfortable pulling your own data in SQL and modeling in Excel.
• You’re even-keeled. You thrive under pressure and maintain a sense of calm when faced with challenging and time-sensitive obstacles.
• You’re persuasive. You are an effective communicator, speaking as if you’re right and listening as if you’re wrong. You meet people on their level.
• You act with urgency. Speed excites you. You prefer an accomplishment today to an accomplishment tomorrow.
• You’re a builder. You enjoy building from the ground up and excel in creating structure and process.
• You don’t need a guide. You dive into difficult problems and come up with a plan.
• You have 3+ years of experience. You’ve succeeded in competitive, challenging environments where you’ve driven both strategy and execution.

Bonus Points

• You are fluent in SQL and Excel
• You have experience in managing or supporting a complex P&L
• You have experience in the tech industry, launching and growing new partners and products
• You have a demonstrated interest in logistics, on-demand services, and ecommerce
