Principal Product Designer

About the Team

At DoorDash, our customers are at the center of our product strategy and we believe that an amazing customer experience is the key to our success. 

The Consumer team designs the mobile apps and website that millions of customers use every day to order meals and more from their favorite local merchants. We create the entire customer experience — onboarding, restaurant discovery, placing an order, DashPass (our subscription service), and much more — and ensure that our products are easy to use and delightful. 

DoorDash is now the #1 app in the Food & Drink category, but we're expanding beyond restaurant delivery into all types of local commerce. The Consumer team will play a central role in that evolution. 

About the Role

As a Design Architect on the team, you will be responsible for thinking about the overarching Consumer experience for DoorDash. You’ll work on vision and system architecture projects thinking about the long-term product experience for the app.

You will report directly to the Head of Consumer Experiences Design on our Consumer Experiences Platform team. Once our offices reopen, we expect this role to be hybrid with some time in-office and some time remote.

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

• Contribute directly to DoorDash's consumer product strategy and define the future of our service. 
• Explore complex, ambiguous problem spaces, working with your team to understand the opportunity, and then chart a path forward.
• Explore and refine your design solutions through wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity visual design. 
• Influence your team's approach to product development, shaping the team's culture, processes, and practices. 
• Improve the lives of millions of DoorDash customers every day.

We’re excited about you because…

• You are a principal-level designer with 10+ years of experience. 
• You are a role model for product quality and user-centric product development. 
• You are able to navigate, define and drive highly complex product architecture system changes.
• You actively engage your teammates and proactively initiate new programs. 
• You're enthusiastic about collaboration and team-building.

About DoorDash

At DoorDash, our mission to empower local economies shapes how our team members move quickly, learn, and reiterate in order to make impactful decisions that display empathy for our range of users—from Dashers to merchant partners to consumers. We are a technology and logistics company that started with door-to-door delivery, and we are looking for team members who can help us go from a company that is known for delivering food to a company that people turn to for any and all goods.

DoorDash is growing rapidly and changing constantly, which gives our team members the opportunity to share their unique perspectives, solve new challenges, and own their careers. We're committed to supporting employees’ happiness, healthiness, and overall well-being by providing comprehensive benefits and perks including premium healthcare, wellness expense reimbursement, paid parental leave and more.

Our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion

We’re committed to growing and empowering a more inclusive community within our company, industry, and cities. That’s why we hire and cultivate diverse teams of people from all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We believe that true innovation happens when everyone has room at the table and the tools, resources, and opportunity to excel.
