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 Senior Director, IT Internal Audit to lead the strategy, execution and evolution of DoorDash’s global IT audit function.

You will report directly to the Chief Audit Executive and serve as a strategic advisor to DoorDash’s technology, security, and engineering leaders. You will bring deep technical audit expertise, exceptional leadership skills, and a passion for innovation to build and lead a world-class IT audit organization that scales with the business. This role demands someone who can balance strategy with execution (and isn’t afraid to roll up their sleeves) — a leader who can anticipate emerging technology risks, foster strong cross-functional partnerships, translate complex technical concepts into meaningful business insights, and be ready to operate at the lowest level of detail. You will partner with teams across Security, Platform Engineering, Data Engineering, Privacy Legal, AI, Product, and Compliance to strengthen our risk posture and drive a data-driven approach
