About the Team
DoorDash Drive is our hypergrowth fulfillment platform serving restaurants, grocers, and retailers across the United States and Internationally. As an Associate Manager on our Drive Restaurants team, you’ll be responsible for articulating and executing our go-to-market strategy for various growth initiatives as well as partnering with our largest and most strategic clients in order to understand needs and develop solutions to better serve them.

Using their native channels, the Merchant is responsible for ingesting the order, tendering customers’ payment, and requesting the dasher from DoorDash. About the Role
Drive is the fastest growing part of DoorDash, and the Drive Restaurants business still has a ton of room to grow. Clients with existing delivery fleets represent a significant strategic opportunity to the business. As an Associate Manager for DoorDash Drive's Strategy & Operations team, you will play a critical role in driving our growth and success. As a direct owner of this segment, you will be critical in helping us to build and execute on our growth strategy across some of the largest and most strategic clients to help us launch and scale our partnerships: understanding their needs, developing products, and partnering cross-functionally to bring solutions forward.

The ideal candidate for this role should be a self-starter with an entrepreneurial mindset, able to take ownership and create plans from scratch, and drive execution while obtaining cross-functional buy-in to achieve DoorDash Drive's strategic goals.
