About the Team

DoorDash’s Internal Audit team provides independent assurance that the company’s risk management, governance, and internal control processes are operating effectively. We are a small team that is looking to expand and bring on motivated professionals. We don’t think of ourselves as a typical audit function - we are obsessively focused on risks to the organizations which reflects in the type of projects we support and execute. 

DoorDash is rapidly growing - we are expanding in multiple geos and launching new products. This exciting growth allows us to drive creative analysis, strategy, and solutions. Our focus areas include financial, operational, regulatory, security, IT, and more. 

About the Role

We are seeking a Manager, Internal Audit, who will be responsible for audits and control assessments focused on both business processes and technology-driven initiatives. This position sits at the intersection of business process and technology. The role combines traditional SOX responsibilities—such as leading walkthroughs, identifying controls and potential gaps, and performing or reviewing control testing to ensure high-quality documentation—with involvement in IT-focused initiatives. These include supporting system implementations, assessing automation and technology-enabled controls, and contributing to cross-functional process improvement projects. This is not a purely IT role nor a purely business process role, but a hybrid position designed to strengthen internal controls across both environments. You will collaborate closely with both business and IT teams at DoorDash to develop an understanding of our critical processes and controls end to end, ensure the sufficiency of business and IT controls in the process, create succinct documentation and reporting, and enable DoorDash leaders to improve our risk posture and better manage our risk. Combining strategic thinking and hands-on execution, you will simplify and operationalize complex audit initiatives. 

You will bring a strong foundation in business process audits, combined with an understanding of technology and automation. The ideal candidate will have experience bridging business and IT risks and be comfortable working with both finance and engineering stakeholders to assess, design, and enhance controls across the organization.

You will report into the Sr. Manager, Internal Audit on our Internal Audit team in our Finance organization. This role will have a flexible hybrid schedule and be based near an U.S. office hub (in San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle or Los Angeles). If local to the SF Bay Area, you will be expected to join the team for in-office sessions twice a month. If you are based elsewhere, you will be expected to join the team for in-office sessions on a quarterly basis. 

You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…

• Plan and develop audit scope and actively participate in project execution for complex audit-related assessments, including SOX (Business and IT), operational audits and other IT audits (e.g., system implementations, automations). This includes a robust understanding of business risks and how both business and IT controls are addressing these risks.
• Provide guidance to controls owners on designing and implementing effective controls, while monitoring and driving timely remediation of control deficiencies and recommending improvements s to strengthen internal controls
