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 RoleWe 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.
