About the Team

Our sales and success teams are the heart and soul of DoorDash, helping us partner with top merchants (think restaurants, grocers, convenience stores, retailers) across the country to grow their revenue and help them operate even better. As DoorDash grows both in scale and scope of offering, the strength of our sales engine and organizational structure must grow with it.

About the role

We are looking for a Manager in Sales Strategy and Operations to be the strategic and operational partner to our SMB Business Development (BD) team as it expands its remit and increases restaurant coverage. You will own the operating foundation for BD’s merchant sales motion, including goal setting, pipeline management, lead allocation, and performance reporting.

In this role, you will make sure we are Making efficient, data-driven decisions,
Building scalable operating systems for a growing sales motion,
Using and advocating for AI tooling, and
Centralizing the metrics that drive sales performance. You’ll work with our Sales, Selection, Operations, Product, Finance, and Analytics teams to build and scale that foundation, helping BD win new restaurant partners and grow those partnerships.

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

Build from first principles. BD's sales motion is evolving to capture top restaurants in priority markets, and this role will design how it runs: goal structures, input and activity metrics, pipeline stages, and rules of engagement with adjacent sales teams. You'll question "this is how it's always been done" and build what the team needs next.
Drive operational excellence. You'll set up and run reporting cadences, rigorous pipeline reviews, and productivity inspection with sales leaders, taking each one end to end from idea to execution and grounding decisions in data.
Own lead strategy and GTM targeting. You’ll partner with our GM teams to point BD reps at the highest-value opportunities, with clear ownership across teams.
Operate at 10,000 feet and 1 foot. One day you'll size goals and model capacity for a growing team. The next you'll be in diagnosing and improving data fidelity or tracing a pacing gap to its root cause.
Look around corners with AI. You'll find where AI tooling can remove manual work from sales operations and reporting, then build and scale those solutions, helping the team become more efficient as it grows.

We’re excited about you because…

You have 6+ years of experience in sales strategy and operations, revenue operations, consulting, business development, analytics, or related fields, with a track record of leading initiatives and hitting goals
You have experience standing up or scaling sales operating systems, such as goaling and compensation inputs, pipeline management, territory or lead allocation, and CRM workflows (Salesforce or similar)
You are highly proficient in SQL and comfortable working independently with large, complex data sets, and you are skilled at modeling in Excel / Google Sheets and building dashboards in visualization tools (e.g. Sigma, Tableau)
You are fluent with AI tools (e.g. LLMs, AI-assisted coding and automation) and have used them to automate workflows, speed up analysis, or improve data quality, with the judgment to validate outputs carefully
You are a strong business thinker who lets data win arguments and can tell a clear story behind the numbers to audiences from frontline managers to senior leaders
You have strong cross-functional, project management, and communication skills, and you can align multiple stakeholders around a shared plan
You are an owner with a strong bias for action, comfortable with ambiguity, and willing to roll up your sleeves and flex up or down as needed
You have a Bachelor's degree or higher
