About the role
About the Team The Strategy & Operations team at DoorDash is the driving force behind the In-Store business line’s long-term growth and operational excellence. We work cross-functionally to develop and execute key initiatives that align with In-Store's strategic goals, ensuring scalability, efficiency, and optimal performance across the organization. Our team is focused on leveraging data-driven insights, improving processes, and guiding business decisions that enhance customer experience and foster company-wide innovation. About the Role DoorDash is looking for a senior Associate Manager, Strategy & Operations to own and accelerate our global payments growth strategy. In this highly visible role, you will act as the strategic "train conductor" for our payments business, working to hit ambitious annual revenue targets by driving the adoption of transactional features across our merchant base. To be successful, you must possess a deep understanding of the payments industry—specifically how payment gateways, Merchant of Record (MoR) models, and transaction fees operate within B2B SaaS ecosystems. You will be directly goaled on moving the needle on critical metrics: increasing payments attach rates, boosting online GMV per venue, and optimizing our take rates. You will partner closely with Product to build new payment-driving features from scratch, shape our global Pricing & Packaging strategy, and rally Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success to execute holistic Go-To-Market launches. This role requires a highly autonomous, confident leader who thrives in ambiguity, can synthesize complex data into actionable insights, and can influence executive stakeholders without direct authority. The ideal candidate is an autonomous owner who can build consensus, synthesize complex data, and navigate 0-to-1 product launches in a fast-paced B2B SaaS environment. You’re excited about this opportunity because you will… • Drive Payments Growth: Own the strategy to increase the adoption of existing payment-driving features (e.g., deposits, cancellation fees, pre-paid experiences) and partner with Product to identify, test, and launch new transactional capabilities. • Pricing & Packaging: Actively manage and optimize our transactional economic model. You will strategize around take rates, processing fees, and consumer pass-through options to ensure we are maximizing payment revenue while incentivizing merchant GMV growth. • Cross-Functional Project Management: Act as the strategic "train conductor" across Product, Sales, Marketing, Product, Sales, and Legal. Bring people together, gather requirements, manage strict timelines, and drive complex initiatives forward without direct authority. You will work closely with leadership, leveraging your analytical skills to identify challenges, develop solutions, and ensure successful project execution in line with our growth objectives. You will establish clear metrics for success and designate project components to the appropriate cross-functional DRIs (Directly Responsible Individuals). You will be responsible for removing or escalating roadblocks to ensure project timelines are achieved. • Market & Competitive Strategy: Size market opportunities and conduct deep competitive research for the region, diving into specific customer segments to understand what is working and analyzing closed-lost deals to understand what isn't. Ensure global product strategies account for local nuances. • Data-Driven Insights: Dive deep into our data to uncover hidden trends, analyze product adoption, and monitor competitive dynamics. You will be responsible for developing dashboards, KPIs, and reports that translate complex data into compelling narratives and actionable recommendations. • Executive Visibility & Align
