About the Role
Strategy & Operations (S&O) Managers at DoorDash drive impact and solve problems by digging into details, executing quickly in the face of ambiguity, and building strong cross-functional collaboration.

On the Merchant team, you’ll get to the lowest level of detail by speaking to Merchants, partnering with our Sales, Support, Marketing, Product, and Consumer teams, and analyzing our data to develop hypotheses for new ways to achieve your goals. You’ll test these hypotheses in the market and refine your approach to develop best-in-world solutions. And, you’ll also make sure to capture the Merchant voice in everything we do at the nexus of Growth, Onboarding, Operations, Product, and Strategy.
