About the Role
Come help us redefine last-mile logistics through robotics, automation, and other advanced technologies! DoorDash Labs is an independent team inside of DoorDash incubating long-term bets and exploring new technologies that can be applied to transform last-mile logistics. We believe in the value of advanced technologies and strive to build meaningful applications of next-generation hardware and software to impact real-world needs.
Product Managers at DoorDash Labs are both strategic as well as deeply engaged in execution. Product managers own concepts end-to-end, across technologies and teams, as well as from concept, through testing and iteration to commercial launch. We’re looking for a motivated, curious and results-oriented product manager to own the definition of autonomous driving behaviors for last-mile delivery robots.
You're excited about this opportunity because you will…
- Drive the product definition, strategy, and long term vision of DoorDash robotics and autonomous delivery products
- Own cross-functional work streams spanning a broad group of stakeholders including software and hardware engineering, design, operations, legal, policy, communications, and business development.
- Define KPIs and communicate product strategy and results to key stakeholders including the leadership team
- Refine requirements based on the product strategy and business needs
- Work with a world-class team of engineers and business leaders
We're excited about you because…
- You have 5+ years of Product Management experience in robotics, autonomy, or similar projects involving autonomous navigation.
- You have experience both defining behaviors, as well as the systems by which good and poor behavior can be differentiated, quantified, and measured.
- You have experience in driving product strategy, vision, and roadmap alignment
- You want to own a product across the full lifecycle from product development, through launch, commercialization, and scaling
- You’re a hands-on owner, willing to drive execution in addition to strategy
- You are a skilled communicator, and have experience crafting and presenting business reviews to senior executives
