About the Team

We're looking for someone to help scale DoorDash's next billion dollar business, DashMart. The DashMart team is focused on building a new type of convenience store, offering household essentials, groceries and local restaurant favorites to our customers' doorsteps.

About the Role

As a Manager on our DashMart Growth Strategy & Operations team, you will lead a team of 2 associates and own high-impact initiatives from end to end—including developing the initial strategy, executing with precision, and analyzing results to inform future decisions. You’ll collaborate closely with cross-functional partners in product, category management, and finance to identify and scale growth levers. You will work on initiatives that drive customer conversion through personalized shopper experiences, in-app merchandising, and occasions strategies. You will report into the Senior Manager of DashMart Strategy & Operations within our New Verticals organization. This is a hybrid role, with a blend of in-office and remote work.

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

• Build. You’ll have your fingerprints all over DoorDash’s next big business. You’ll do whatever it takes to launch, get 1% better every day, and scale something completely new. This means everything from high-level strategy to nitty-gritty operational details.
• Strategize. From first principles, you’ll develop the optimal strategy for best serving our customers. 
• Experiment. You’ll transform strategies into operational experiments that create measurable and actionable outcomes, informing your larger initiative implementation plans.
• Analyze. You’ll assess the operational and financial impacts of your decisions, and iterate based on data.
• Lead and collaborate. You’ll work with a cross-functional team, including marketing, design, product, and operations, and lead your own pod to build this new line of business for DoorDash.

We’re excited about you because…

• 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’re equally comfortable operating at 10,000 feet and 1 foot. You don’t hesitate to get in the weeds and operate at the lowest level of detail, but you’re just as comfortable thinking long-term and inspiring a team. No job is beneath you.
• You’re unafraid of ambiguity. Rapid change and learning is exciting to you, and you thrive in ambiguous, startup environments
• You’re analytical. You let data win arguments, and you’re comfortable pulling your own data in SQL or modeling in Excel.
• You are a leader. You have 1+ years of experience managing high-performing teams.
• You have 6-8+ years of experience. You’ve succeeded in high-performance cultures (whether in tech, operations, strategy, consulting, banking, or a related experience).
• You have completed your BS/BA Degree.
