Hybrid
DoorDash’s centralized, global TPM organization helps Engineering deliver the company’s most complex and consequential technical, product, and business transformations. The team spans DoorDash, Wolt, and Deliveroo and partners across a global Engineering organization of approximately 4,000 engineers.
We have intentionally built a lean, high-leverage TPM organization with a high bar for technical depth, business judgment, and independent domain ownership. Our leaders stay close to the business and technical work, lead through strong senior IC TPMs, and shape the operating mechanisms that allow complex organizations to execute at speed.
This Director will lead 12 TPMs (one-quarter of the global TPM organization) and report directly to the VP of Engineering Operations. Their team supports nearly 1,300 engineers across five strategically important organizations: Dasher & Logistics, Ads & Promotions, Merchant, DashOS, and Platform Services.
As Director of Technical Program Management, you will lead a high-performing team of TPMs embedded across some of DoorDash’s most important and technically complex businesses. Your portfolio spans the real-time fulfillment network that powers every delivery, a multi-billion dollar ads revenue platform, DoorDash’s merchant ecosystem and in-store technology, and platforms that enable merchants and other businesses to access our logistics network through offerings such as Drive and Parcels.
You will partner closely with a VP and four Senior Directors to set direction, strengthen execution, develop TPM talent, and solve the cross-organizational challenges that sit between teams, systems, and business priorities. You will also play a central role in Pedregal, DoorDash’s multi-year global platform re-architecture across DoorDash, Wolt, and Deliveroo while maintaining production availability and continuing to build for each business’ evolving requirements.
We believe the future of TPM leadership is defined by leverage, not layers. This role is for a forward-looking leader who can develop an intentionally lean, high-performing team, use AI to amplify its impact, and shape strategy and organizational capability while remaining meaningfully connected to the work.
You must be located near San Francisco, CA, Sunnyvale, CA, or Seattle, WA for this hybrid position.
