Program Manager, Engineering Enablement

At DoorDash, we’re building the industry’s most scalable and reliable delivery network to support our three‑sided marketplace of Consumers, Merchants, and Dashers. As the Engineering organization evolves, our Engineering Enablement team is hiring a Program Manager to build and scale programs that elevate developer productivity and cohesion across DoorDash’s Engineering umbrella.

This role will support programming efforts with org-wide communication, operations, and events; tooling and documentation; and emerging technologies such as AI, to help enable engineers leverage the right resources to elevate quality, accelerate execution, and shape the future of our products and systems. You’ll also support our largest program, Engineering Bootcamp, by facilitating new hire onboarding on a rotating basis with the team, and contributing to content and process updates in partnership with the program’s onboarding DRI.

About the Team

The Engineering Enablement team’s mission is to elevate the productivity, capabilities, and unity of the DoorDash Engineering organization. We trail blaze and drive creative solutions - programs, platforms, and resources - that help engineers do their best work. Embedded in the Engineering org, we partner closely with Engineering leadership, and collaborate with key cross-functional teams such as Security, IT, Recruiting, Talent Acquisition, and Workplace Strategy, to build a scalable engineering organization that supports our company roadmap.

About the Role

As a Program Manager on the Engineering Enablement team, you will act as a versatile generalist, both scaling and supporting our existing enablement programs, while also identifying opportunities to design and launch new initiatives that improve how DoorDash engineers learn, build, collaborate, and ship. You will:

• Own and help scale multi-quarter engineering enablement programs and events across emerging technologies, documentation/tooling, technical learning, and engineering communications with guidance from your manager/team; partner with engineering stakeholders to proactively define scope, milestones, risks, and outcomes for new and existing programs.
• Design, pilot, and iterate on technical learning offerings (learning paths, workshops, demos, lunch-and-learns) to drive AI and emerging technology adoption and fluency - using stakeholder input and program data to continuously improve and scale what works.
• Facilitate high-impact live learning sessions for software engineers, tailoring content to different audiences, creating engaging experiences, and folding feedback into future sessions.
• Help define and maintain north-star metrics and success criteria for enablement programs, tracking progress across workstreams and using data, anecdotes, and experiments to assess impact, highlight trade-offs, and recommend next steps.
• Craft clear, timely communications for engineering programs and initiatives (announcements, program updates, wiki and intranet resources), ensuring consistency in voice and information discoverability. 
• Operate programs end-to-end with semi-independent ownership - contribute to roadmaps, coordinate stakeholders, support third-party evaluations and vendor management (requirements, cost, and fit analysis), track budgets, and run retrospectives that lead to concrete process and tooling improvements.
• Facilitate Engineering Bootcamp on a rotating basis with the team, ensuring smooth sessions and sharing feedback with the onboarding DRI; help maintain and iterate on onboarding documentation, content and training materials.
• Foster an inclusive, learning-first culture by engaging engineers and subject-matter experts as partners in enablement, facilitating discussions, and tailoring approaches and messaging to different teams and personas.

You will report to the Manager of Engineering Enablement within the Engineering organization. This role is currently flexible, with 2 days in-office with the team recommended per week, and based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Occasional travel to Tech Sites in North America may be required. 

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

• Build and scale programs that directly improve developer productivity and experience across the org.
• Contribute to programs and events to help drive adoption of emerging technologies for engineers - from literacy to hands-on pilots and measurable outcomes.
• Uplevel documentation and tooling, helping to maintain a sustainable information architecture and docs pipeline.
• Design engaging learning experiences and events that meet engineers where they are (virtual and in‑person).
• Facilitate Engineering Bootcamp on a rotating basis, and help keep its content and processes current in partnership with the onboardin
