About the Team
DoorDash is seeking a talented Engineering Manager to lead our Order Accuracy team which is part of our Delivery Excellence pillar. Our pillar's vision is to ensure 100% of orders placed on DoorDash are delivered with the highest quality. Aligning to the overall quality vision, this team's goal is to ensure every customer who orders on DoorDash receives their products accurately, all the time. This team specifically focuses on reducing the Missing & Incorrect (M&I) items delivered metric. Improving accuracy is a complex and challenging problem. To achieve our goal of 100% accurate orders, we plan to collect ground truth, implement ML models, and adopt the latest technologies. This team develops products for all three audiences of DoorDash including Consumers, Dashers, and Merchants.
About the Role
As the manager for the Order Accuracy team, you will manage a team of mobile, fullstack and backend engineers. You will be responsible for driving the technical vision, strategy, and execution of the team charter. You will also collaborate greatly with the product, operations and peer engineering teams in identifying new opportunities to improve the accuracy of our deliveries and overall audience experience.
You're excited about this opportunity because you will...
At DoorDash, our mission to empower local economies shapes how our team members move quickly, learn, and reiterate in order to make impactful decisions that display empathy for our range of users-from Dashers to merchant partners to consumers. We are a technology and logistics company that started with door-to-door delivery, and we are looking for team members who can help us go from a company that is known for delivering food to a company that people turn to for any and all goods.
DoorDash is growing rapidly and changing constantly, which gives our team members the opportunity to share their unique perspectives, solve new challenges, and own their careers. We're committed to supporting employees' happiness, healthiness, and overall well-being by providing comprehensive benefits and perks including premium healthcare, wellness expense reimbursement, paid parental leave and more.
Our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion
We're committed to growing and empowering a more inclusive community within our company, industry, and cities. That's why we hire and cultivate diverse teams of people from all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We believe that true innovation happens when everyone has room at the table and the tools, resources, and opportunity to excel.
