We are looking for someone who loves to get to the lowest level of detail to find product-market fit and scale small businesses within large organizations.
- You look for the win win wins. The scale of our ambition is great and we look to our leaders to balance unbridled optimism in finding the wins for our customers, their team, DoorDash and truth-seeking challenger mindset to guide the team towards those wins.
