About the Team
DoorDash’s mission is to grow and empower local economies. By building intelligent, last-mile delivery technology for local cities, DoorDash connects people with the local businesses they care about — helping grow businesses and the communities that support those businesses.

A hands-on paid media expert, you’ll lead the planning, execution, and optimisation of media buys and promotional campaigns to acquire new customers—bringing both strategic insight and executional excellence.

- Work closely with agencies and in-house team to optimise media buying in effort to hit growth targets in a cost-effective manner
- Lead and measure performance across an evergreen portfolio of paid channels, but execute ad hoc strategic campaigns with separate goals and budgets as the landscape shifts
