Staff Product Designer, Merchant Marketing

About The Team

At DoorDash, we’re redefining what it means to be a designer. We’re building a team of makers, builders, and doers. Over the past decade, “web designer” evolved into “product designer” as the scope expanded. Now, that shift is happening again — LLMs are broadening the role further, pushing design toward both strategic thinking and direct execution. As a Staff Product Designer, you’ll help lead this evolution: not only practicing build-first design, but scaling it across people, processes, and systems.

About The Role

In this role, you’ll join the Ads & Promos Design team — one of DoorDash’s fastest-growing businesses — owning end-to-end campaign experience design and shaping the strategic vision for our marketing tooling system. This platform powers both SMB and enterprise restaurants across DoorDash’s global markets and connects local businesses with over 40 million consumers globally. Your impact will span both team effectiveness and business growth.

What You’ll Do

• Define projects with a clear point of view, writing briefs that synthesize customer insights and business goals into actionable roadmaps
• Bring clarity to ambiguous, cross-team problems and turn them into work that ships; drive prioritization and make thoughtful tradeoffs between quality, speed, and impact
• Lead projects from concept through execution, staying close during iteration to ensure high-quality outcomes; deliver high-fidelity designs and production-ready prototypes that set the standard for craft
• Design across systems and workflows, contributing to shared tools (e.g., prompt libraries, component generators, workflow automations) that improve team productivity
• Mentor peers on responsible AI usage and contribute reusable frameworks that scale beyond your team
• Multiply team impact through mentorship, recruiting, and inclusive practices

Who You Are

• You’re comfortable working in code and with LLM-powered tools, prototyping in production, and contributing to implementation when needed
• You design and build solutions that scale across teams and workflows
