About the Team

As one of DoorDash's core operations teams, Customer Experience and Support Ops, we ensure that when there are bumps in the last mile, there's always someone there to help make things right.

About the Role

•     Develop an expertise in how DoorDash's systems and resources work, and how to use them to promote positive outcomes for our Customers


•     Validate and track customer feedback to inform updates to our products and tools

We're excited about you because… 

•     3 or more years of experience with account management, customer support, hospitality or in related field


•     High School Degree or GED required. Bachelor’s degree preferred.
