About this role
About the Team
You'll be joining a small, high-leverage Account Management team inside DoorDash's Commerce Platform organization. We work directly with strategic merchant partners - operators running multi-location businesses across the US - and we're the team responsible for making them successful. The work is high-touch, data-driven, and deeply cross-functional. We sit at the intersection of operations, product, sales, and engineering, and we're equally accountable for revenue outcomes, product feedback, and customer health.
About the Role
This is a generalist account management role for someone who wants to operate as more than a relationship manager. You'll own a portfolio of strategic merchants, run their cadence end-to-end, build the strategic playbook that grows their business with us, and represent their voice inside DoorDash. You'll be on calls with founders one hour, pulling data to back up a recommendation the next, and writing a product brief the hour after. The merchant base is sophisticated and the bar is high - we're hiring for someone who can show up and partner with multi-location operators on day one.
You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…
• Own a portfolio of strategic merchant accounts. Run weekly and biweekly cadences. Build trust quickly. Become the operator your merchants pick up the phone for.
• Drive measurable revenue growth for your portfolio through specific, contextualized recommendations - promotions, marketing campaigns, channel optimization, expansion strategy.
• Defend account health through proactive, data-driven monitoring. Spot risk early. Act on it.
• Translate merchant voice into product and engineering work. Capture verbatim feedback. Synthesize patterns. Write briefs that ship.
• Partner cross-functionally with Sales, S&O, Launch, Support, Engineering, and Product. Be the connective tissue.
• Use and improve a heavily AI-augmented operational toolkit. We move quickly because we automate aggressively.
• Build process where there isn't any. Our function is still being shaped - the right hire will shape it with us.
We’re excited about you because…
• You have 3-5+ years of experience in strategic account management, customer success, or related customer-facing roles at a B2B company. You've owned a book of merchants who depend on your work.
• Restaurant or hospitality background (either as an operator or restaurant tech).
• Demonstrated comfort with data - spreadsheets at scale, dashboards, basic SQL, and a strong instinct for spotting when a number doesn't make sense.
• Clear, concise written and verbal communication. You can hold a strategic conversation with a founder, write an email that respects their time, and brief a senior internal stakeholder without padding.
• High agency. You take ownership of outcomes, not activities. You operate without a playbook when needed. You make decisions and recover from mistakes.
• Industry empathy. You've worked close
