About the role
About the Team The New Verticals team is building the future of local commerce through expanding our product offerings on our marketplace platform. We launched in 2020 and have since then built world-class operations to delight our customers with access to Grocery, Convenience, Alcohol, and Retail delivery through our marketplace; this team is shaping the future of DoorDash Retail and how we empower local economies across industries like electronics, home improvement, apparel, and use cases outside of what people eat. About the Role As a Manager on the Retail Pricing & Planning team, you will own the planning, operating rhythm and manage the economics of DoorDash's Retail business. You'll work closely with Strategy & Operations, Finance, Product, Partnerships, and New Verticals platform teams to be successful. You'll be responsible for setting the operating cadence that keeps Retail on plan: defining the metrics that matter, running weekly business reviews, and driving quarterly planning into focused sprints against growth and profitability. On pricing, you'll own how we set consumer fees and structure merchant economics–partnering with our Platform team on fee architecture and making sure our strongest merchant deals are in place and performing. Your work bridges planning, pricing, and commercial strategy across retail categories. You turn targets into operating plans, and plans into measurable outcomes. This role requires strong financial acumen and comfort with data. You should move fluently between cents and millions, be able to make frameworks for tradeoffs, and be comfortable modeling when needed. SQL and a track record of building the tools you need will help. You will report into a Director on our Retail Strategy & Operations team and be an individual contributor, with the opportunity to build a team in the future. You’re excited about this opportunity because you will… • Strategize. From first principles, you'll shape how DoorDash Retail grows profitably — where we price to win and where we protect margin. • Operate . You'll set the rhythm that keeps the business on plan, turning ambitious targets into focused execution against growth and profitability. • Analyze. You'll let economics win the argument and pair them with instincts for how customers shop and what affordability levers matter most. • Experiment. You'll transform pricing strategies into structured tests that create measurable, actionable outcomes — and a sharper view of what works. • Build. You'll have your fingerprints all over Retail's economics, customers will be able to find more deals, and your planning cycle is the critical foundation for the rest of your teammates to build upon. • Lead, collaborate and Influence. You'll partner with and influence Finance, Product, Partnerships, and Platform teams to build and scale Retail. We’re excited about you because… • You have 6-8+ years of experience. You’ve succeeded in similar cultures that are highly analytical and cross-functional (whether in tech, e-commerce, operations, strategy, consulting, banking, or a related experience). • You are an owner. You're always looking for opportunities to better your work product and own the outcome – both the good and the bad • You're entrepreneurial. You have a bias for action and are able to build things from the ground up. • You’re analytical. You let data win arguments, and you’re comfortable pulling your own data in SQL, building models, and building the tools you need to create 10x outcomes. • You are AI Native. You root cause problems with a systems first approach and can identify how to automate repeatable tasks using AI tools like Claude, Cursor, Gemini or Copilot. • You’re equally comfortable operating at 10,000 feet and 1 foot. You don’t hesit
