About the Team

DoorDash’s mission is to grow and empower local economies. By building intelligent, last-mile delivery technology for local cities, DoorDash connects people with the local businesses they care about — helping grow businesses and the communities that support those businesses. To further this mission, we’re looking for an experienced consumer growth marketer to join our growing consumer marketing team at a pivotal and exciting time for DoorDash.

The consumer growth marketing team is focused on building and nurturing our consumer base by building a relationship with our consumer and providing them with an engaging and relevant cross-channel experience. The consumer growth marketing team at DoorDash is growing rapidly and it is expected this person will be a leader on the team, help develop our marketing approach, and grow their career as the team expands.

We’re looking for a talented and driven performance marketer with strong knowledge of online/offline marketing/performance channels to join our Consumer Growth Marketing team. This role will offer you the opportunity to have an immediate impact by managing the performance of acquisition channels for our International markets. You’ll be at the forefront of leading analysis, solving complex problems, and making strategic recommendations to drive the business forward and expand our presence in these new international locations. In this role you will get the opportunity to work cross-functionally with other DoorDash teams (including the regional teams) and as well as with our partners, like Google and Apple, to test and implement new marketing technologies.

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

  • Manage multi-million dollar monthly digital budgets across digital paid marketing channels, including Paid Search (Google, Microsoft), App Search (Apple Search Ads, UAC), and Shopping

  • Work closely with other teams and stakeholders to ensure goals are met

We’re excited about you because…

You’re a results-oriented marketer with demonstrated experience managing large budgets across acquisition channels. You are highly analytical and count A/B testing, optimizing customer acquisition costs, and analyzing campaign performance among your core competencies. You are creative and collaborative and work well with teams to tackle challenging problems. Most importantly, you are eager to roll up your sleeves to find opportunities and efficiencies in a fast-moving company at the forefront of on-demand food ordering. Also, you probably love food!
