Job description

Associate, Dasher & Logistics — Rotational Leadership Program

About the Team

The Dasher & Logistics team is responsible for ensuring every delivery is completed with speed, accuracy and a positive Consumer, Merchant and Dasher experience. Dasher & Logistics owns initiatives that touch all parts of the Dasher life cycle ranging from supply & demand, to cost & quality, to Dasher pay, to Dasher retention, to order batching and beyond. We care about metrics like delivery times, cost per order, delivery quality, dasher compensation, and many more!

About the Role

We are hiring for associates to join our Dasher & Logistics team in a new rotational program that will span across different areas of the portfolio. You'll work on KRs across some of our highest priority business problems by getting into the weeds to understand what's happening on the ground, using data and customer insights to identify opportunities, developing and testing hypotheses, and partnering cross-functionally to bring solutions to life at scale. You will move daily metrics, run a/b tests, launch new initiatives and so much more while working cross-functionally with product, engineering, finance and other folks on strategy & operations. Rotations will span between 6-8 months and you will report directly into high performing managers on the Dasher & Logistics team.

You’ll be an individual contributor. We operate in a hybrid and spend a few days a month in person together! You must currently be based in New York or San Francisco. This role does not offer relocation and is not open to fully remote employees.

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

• Contribute to a portfolio of KRs across dasher and logistics, setting the strategy and building the execution plan to hit your goals
• Use a data-driven approach to investigate problems, creating insightful analysis from a combination of quantitative and qualitative information, and implement next steps
• Operate at the lowest level of detail in order to build strong foundational knowledge of your problem space and provide recommendations for leadership
• Define and test hypotheses through experimentation, leverage AI to accelerate learnings, and scale successful strategies across the org
• Work cross-functionally across multiple teams to drive alignment and impact, such as Legal, Public Policy, Product, Analytics, Finance, and Marketing
• Develop new skills and advance your career, with opportunities to take on new challenges and responsibilities as you progress through the program

We’re excited about you because…

• You have 1-2+ years of experience. You’ve succeeded in similar cultures that are highly analytical and cross-functional (banking or consulting preferred)
• You’re unafraid of ambiguity. Rapid change and learning is exciting to you, and you thrive in ambiguous, startup environments where you can be creative and scrappy. You will work on a project basis, so being comfortable in high levels of ambiguity with the expectation of making impact fast is a must.
• You’re analytical. You let data win arguments, and you’re comfortable pulling your own data in SQL and building models.
• You’re adaptable. You are constantly chasing new tools and ways to become more efficient and know where, when and how to use AI.
• You have a completed Bachelor’s Degree in a related field.
