DoorDash’s mission is to grow and empower local economies. By building intelligent, last-mile delivery technology for local cities, DoorDash connects people with the local businesses they care about, helping grow businesses and the communities that support those businesses. Our Consumer Retention Marketing team is responsible for building lasting relationships with our customers through personalized, scalable, cross-channel experiences that drive engagement and long-term value. We focus on connecting consumers with the most relevant products, merchants, and moments across DoorDash’s expanding ecosystem, including New Verticals like Grocery, Convenience, Alcohol, and Retail, as well as high-impact seasonal and cultural Occasions.
About The Role
As the Assoc Manager of Customer Lifecycle Marketing for USMP New, you will own DoorDash's new consumer onboarding lifecycle — the programs, channels, and experiences that take a customer from the moment they sign up to the point where DoorDash is a habitual part of their life. This is a high-investment, high-impact area. You will not just maintain what exists — you will push it forward. That means aggressively iterating on core onboarding programs, expanding the surfaces through which we reach new consumers, introducing personalization based on customer behavior and context, and managing a meaningful budget across channels. You will move quickly, test often, and build toward an onboarding system that is more intelligent, more multi-surface, and more effective at converting new signups into long-term engaged customers. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on end-to-end program ownership, is energized by improving conversion through both creative and analytical thinking, and wants to build something they can point to and say — I made this meaningfully better.
You’re Excited About This Opportunity Because You Will…
- Own the new consumer onboarding strategy — define the full lifecycle from sign-up through habituation, including key milestones, trigger logic, channel sequencing, and success metrics
- Iterate aggressively on core programs — bring a bias for action and a structured test-and-learn approach to continuously improving sign-up to habituation conversion rates
- Expand channel and surface coverage — identify gaps in the current onboarding experience and introduce new touchpoints (push, SMS, in-app, and beyond) that reach new customers at the right moment with the right message
- Introduce personalization into onboarding — use customer attributes, behavioral signals, and segment data to move beyond one-size-fits-all communications toward experiences that feel relevant and timely
- Manage budget with rigor — oversee meaningful spend across onboarding channels, allocate toward highest-impact programs, track performance, and make data-informed investment decisions
- Build a measurement framework — define and own KPIs across the onboarding funnel, establish a regular cadence of performance reporting, and surface insights that inform ongoing strategy
- Partner cross-functionally — work closely with Product, Analytics, and Operations to align on onboarding definitions, data access, and new surface opportunities
We’re Excited About You Because You Have…
- 4–6+ years of experience in lifecycle, CRM, or retention marketing with a strong technical depth
- Deep familiarity with CRM platforms (e.g. Braze, Iterable, Salesforce Marketing Cloud) and experience executing across email, push, SMS, and in-app channels
- A strong test-and-learn orientation — you run structured experiments, interpret results clearly, and use them to prioritize what to do next
- Experience managing a marketing budget and making investment decisions based on performance and business impact
- The ability to use data to diagnose where a funnel is breaking down and translate that into a concrete improvement plan
- Strong cross-functional collaboration skills — you work well with Product, Analytics, and Operations partners and can align stakeholders around a shared onboarding vision
- High agency and an ownership mindset — you identify what needs to change and drive that change, rather than waiting to be directed

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Social Media Manager Jobs at DoorDash
Build a portfolio around growth metrics
DoorDash evaluates Social Media Managers on measurable outcomes, not just creative output. Before applying, document campaigns where you drove follower growth, engagement rate lifts, or conversion improvements. Concrete numbers make your specialty occupation case stronger when your employer files an H-1B petition.
Verify your role qualifies as specialty occupation
USCIS requires Social Media Manager roles to demand a specific bachelor's degree, not just any degree. Confirm the job posting lists a degree requirement in communications, marketing, or a related field before applying, as a vague requirement weakens your petition.
Target DoorDash's brand and merchant marketing teams
DoorDash posts Social Media Manager openings across its consumer brand, merchant growth, and international expansion functions. Filtering by team type narrows your outreach to hiring managers whose roles align with your background, improving your chances of reaching a sponsorship-willing recruiter.
Use Migrate Mate to find open sponsorship-eligible roles
Search for DoorDash Social Media Manager openings filtered by visa type on Migrate Mate. The platform surfaces roles where DoorDash has an active sponsorship history, saving you from applying to positions that exclude international candidates at the screening stage.
Align your application timing with H-1B cap deadlines
If you need cap-subject H-1B sponsorship, your employer must file in March for an October 1 start. Targeting DoorDash roles in the fourth quarter of the previous year gives you enough runway to secure an offer, complete the LCA filing with DOL, and register before the USCIS lottery window.
Negotiate sponsorship terms before signing an offer
Clarify in writing whether DoorDash will cover filing fees, legal representation, and premium processing before you accept. Large technology employers often have immigration counsel on retainer, but fee coverage policies vary by level and team, so confirming this during the offer stage avoids surprises later.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does DoorDash sponsor H-1B visas for Social Media Managers?
Yes, DoorDash sponsors H-1B visas for Social Media Manager roles. The role must qualify as a specialty occupation under USCIS standards, meaning the position requires a specific bachelor's degree in a field like marketing, communications, or digital media. DoorDash has a consistent pattern of filing H-1B petitions for marketing and communications functions, making it a realistic target for candidates on this visa type.
Which visa types does DoorDash commonly sponsor for Social Media Manager roles?
DoorDash sponsors several visa categories for Social Media Manager positions, including H-1B, E-3 visa for Australian citizens, TN visa for Canadian and Mexican nationals, and F-1 OPT or CPT for recent graduates. Candidates in the STEM OPT extension window may have additional flexibility. The right visa type depends on your nationality, degree field, and employment timeline.
How do I apply for Social Media Manager jobs at DoorDash?
Browse open Social Media Manager roles on DoorDash's careers page or through Migrate Mate, which filters listings by sponsorship eligibility. Tailor your application to highlight platform-specific experience, cross-functional campaign work, and measurable results. DoorDash's hiring process typically involves a recruiter screen, a take-home creative exercise, and multiple stakeholder interviews before an offer is extended.
What qualifications does DoorDash expect for Social Media Manager candidates?
DoorDash generally looks for a bachelor's degree in marketing, communications, journalism, or a related field, along with hands-on experience managing brand accounts across platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and X. Experience in a fast-paced technology or consumer brand environment is a common differentiator. Candidates who can demonstrate performance analytics alongside creative skills tend to advance further in the process.
How do I plan my timeline if I need visa sponsorship at DoorDash?
If you need H-1B sponsorship, work backward from the October 1 fiscal year start. USCIS opens H-1B registration in March, so you need an offer in hand no later than February to allow time for the DOL Labor Condition Application and lottery registration. E-3 and TN visas have no annual cap and can be processed more quickly, giving you more flexibility on start dates.
