At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect, cultivating an inclusive environment where all team members can thrive. As the Business Systems Lead for Payroll & Time, you will lead Lyft's global migration onto Dayforce following recent acquisitions. Sitting within People Technology in Corporate Engineering and IT (CEIT), you'll join Lyft's Dayforce program at a formative moment: the initial rollout spans 12–15 countries over two-plus years, and you're joining early enough to directly shape how implementation, governance, and vendor management get done — not inherit a playbook someone else already wrote. You'll be backed by a mature, experienced Payroll Operations team who bring deep subject-matter expertise, while you own the technical and functional side: driving requirements, directing our systems integrator, and building the governance and vendor management model you'll run long-term as the platform's product/service owner. Sitting within People Technology in CEIT, you will drive requirements, make key functional decisions, and partner closely with Payroll Operations, HR, Legal, and Finance. You'll lead vendor delivery to ensure accurate, compliant payroll and time tracking across each migration wave, then own platform governance and vendor management long-term once the program stabilizes. We're looking for someone who can act as the translation layer between operations, executives, and technical teams — equally comfortable explaining payroll concepts to engineers and system constraints to business stakeholders. Responsibilities: Own Requirements and Direct the Implementation Partner Serve as the internal functional owner for the Dayforce payroll and time migration, driving requirements and directing the systems integrator partner. Translate payroll policy, collective bargaining terms, and statutory requirements — as defined by Payroll Operations and Legal — into actionable technical specifications. Validate vendor configurations against country-specific rule

At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive. The divide between business needs and technical delivery is one of the most persistent challenges in enterprise technology, where People teams struggle to articulate requirements and engineering teams lack the business context to build truly impactful solutions. As a Senior Business Solution Architect for People at Lyft, you'll eliminate this gap by serving as the critical connection point between our People teams and our Corporate Engineering and IT (CEIT) organization. This customer obsessed role uniquely combines deep functional business expertise with strong technical acumen, with an AI native approach, enabling you to translate complex business needs into systemized, scalable solutions while driving AI-enabled transformation across the People function. We're seeking a strategic thinker who thrives at the intersection of business and technology, possesses exceptional communication skills across both technical and non-technical audiences, and is dedicated to architecting the future AI Native state of how the People function operates. You'll be the trusted advisor to both business leaders and engineering teams, ensuring our People organization has systems and processes that scale with our business while our engineering teams build solutions that truly move the needle.

About the Role At DoorDash we are redefining what it means to be a designer. We are building towards a team of makers, builders, and doers. Between 2005 and 2015, "web designer" became "product designer" and the scope widened. The same shift is happening now — LLMs are expanding the T again, toward strategy on one end and direct execution on the other. As a Staff Product Designer, you will lead this shift across your team: not just practicing build-first design, but multiplying it through the people and systems around you. We're seeking an ambitious and system design minded Staff Product Designer to lead “Meals for Work” within DoorDash for Business , a strategic area at the heart of redefining workplace dining and company perks. You’ll craft transformative consumer and enterprise experiences, from tools that make team lunch ordering effortless to scalable solutions for catering, company paid recurring meals, and grocery benefits. This role offers a unique opportunity to design powerful systems that help workplace admins plan, manage, and operate food programs with confidence, while pioneering new offerings in an evolving market. This position is open for candidates in San Francisco, Seattle, or New York City, and will report to the Head of New Bets Design within our Consumer organization. You will work in a hybrid model, working from one of our offices 1-2 times a week with the rest working from home. Your primary impact is making the team faster and more autonomous. You build reusable workflows, shared tools, and decision frameworks that let every designer on your team operate at a higher level with less coordination overhead.
