About the Team

DoorDash Drive is our company's hyper-growth platform team serving restaurants, grocers and retailers across the United States, Canada and Australia. 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 New Verticals team to rapidly scale our next big bet in logistics. This team works closely with multiple cross functional partners to incubate new service offerings and quickly launch new Merchants and revenue on our platform.

About the Role

You will drive the strategy for one of our newest business lines. You will quickly become an expert about our product, operations, and Merchants. You will be on the forefront of growth and expansion; building models, creating pricing strategy, and implementing processes to win deals, accelerate speed to revenue, and drive profitable volume to the platform. You will perform comprehensive analysis and make insightful recommendations about our business strategy with the ultimate goal of helping DoorDash disrupt a new industry.

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

• Strategize – Understand the needs of our partners, prioritize those needs by impact, assess tradeoffs, and design solutions to drive both speed and quality outcomes
• Build – Bring structure to undefined opportunities by creating and implementing high-impact playbooks, models, processes, and tools that help us grow new business more quickly and effectively
• Analyze – Solve key problems with a data-driven, first-principles approach (identification, sizing, pricing, impact, root causing, trade offs)
• Influence – Work cross-functionally with our Business Development, Logistics, and Product teams to rapidly scale new business

We’re Excited About You

• Possess strong analytical skills, including proficiency with SQL and Microsoft Excel
• Have strong cross-functional skills and experience with projects spanning multiple teams

In keeping with our beliefs and goals, no employee or applicant will face discrimination or harassment based on: race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, age, gender, marital/domestic partner status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, disability status, or veteran status. Above and beyond discrimination and harassment based on “protected categories,” we also strive to prevent other subtler forms of inappropriate behavior (i.e., stereotyping) from ever gaining a foothold in our office.
