Manager, Dasher & Logistics - Dasher Financial Strategy & Operations

New York, NY; Austin, TX; Washington, DC; San Francisco, CA; Sunnyvale, CA; Seattle, WA; Los Angeles, CA; Chicago, IL

About the Team

The Dasher & Logistics team supports the millions of Dashers who power DoorDash’s marketplace. We’re building the world’s leading last-mile logistics platform — and to succeed, we’ll need to disrupt ourselves along the way. The Dasher Financial team is one such disruption: we are building fintech products that best serve the needs of Dashers and gig workers like them.

From instant access to earnings, to innovative bill pay and savings products, to credit-building tools, our goal is to create the financial system of record for Dashers. We are still early in this journey — launching and scaling zero-to-one products that redefine how Dashers interact with their money.

About the Role

We are looking for a Manager, Strategy & Operations to join our Dasher Financial team. This role is about building new fintech bets from the ground up — from testing early hypotheses to scaling into category-defining businesses.

As a Manager, you will operate like a GM-in-training: shaping strategy, owning execution, and ultimately building the P&L for a new fintech product line. Early projects may include leading our efforts in lending and credit, but the role will flex to whatever the highest-potential opportunities are for Dasher Financial.This is a rare opportunity to be at the forefront of fintech innovation inside a scaled platform.

You will:

• Identify new product opportunities, size the market, and build the business case.
• Design and run experiments to validate user demand.
• Own day-to-day execution and work cross-functionally to take ideas from concept to launch.
• Define success metrics and be accountable for business outcomes.
• Scale promising products into sustainable businesses that improve Dashers’ financial health.

Dasher Financial is an ambitious bet — building fintech products for the future of work. As a Manager, you will have end-to-end ownership of a new product line, from incubation to scale. You’ll have the platform and data of DoorDash, but the freedom to build like a startup founder. For someone who aspires to be a GM or startup founder, this is a unique opportunity to learn by doing and build a business from zero to one.

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

• Strategize: Develop the roadmap for new fintech bets and shape how DoorDash serves gig workers financially.
• Own: Take full ownership of a product line, from metrics to operations to user adoption.
• Influence: Work cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Finance, Analytics, and Marketing to turn vision into execution.
• Experiment & scale: Launch MVPs, measure user behavior, iterate quickly, and scale the ones that work.
• Grow as a GM: Build the skills to run a full business line — strategy, P&L, operations, and product — within one of DoorDash’s highest-potential growth areas.

We’re excited about you because…

• You have 5+ years of experience in high-growth environments (tech, fintech, strategy & ops, consulting, or banking).
• You have a track record of taking ambiguous problems and turning them into scaled outcomes.
• You are an exceptional problem solver who thrives on data-driven decision-making (comfortable with SQL/Excel).
• You are curious, entrepreneurial, and thrive in zero-to-one environments.
• You can flex between high-level strategy and ground-level execution, and you don’t hesitate to get your hands dirty to deliver results.
