About the Role
Come help us redefine last-mile logistics through robotics, automation, and other advanced technologies! DoorDash Labs is an independent team inside of DoorDash incubating long-term bets and exploring new technologies that can be applied to transform last-mile logistics.

We believe in the value of advanced technologies and strive to build meaningful applications of next-generation hardware and software to impact real-world needs.

You're excited about this opportunity because you will…

+ Drive the product definition, strategy, and long term vision of DoorDash robotics and autonomous delivery products

+ Own cross-functional work streams spanning a broad group of stakeholders including software and hardware engineering, design, operations, legal, policy, communications, and business development.

+ Define KPIs and communicate product strategy and results to key stakeholders including the leadership team

+ Refine requirements based on the product strategy and business needs

+ Work with a world-class team of engineers and business leaders

We're excited about you because…

+ You have 5+ years of Product Management experience in robotics, autonomy, or similar projects involving autonomous navigation.

+ You have experience both defining behaviors, as well as the systems by which good and poor behavior can be differentiated, quantified, and measured.

+ You have experience in driving product strategy, vision, and roadmap alignment

+ You want to own a product across the full lifecycle from product development, through launch, commercialization, and scaling

+ You’re a hands-on owner, willing to drive execution in addition to strategy

+ You are a skilled communicator, and have experience crafting and presenting business reviews to senior executives
