About the Team
DoorDash is looking for a hands-on Associate Manager, Indirect Tax Audit Analytics to join our growing Tax Controversy team. The Tax Controversy team serves DoorDash by producing excellent controversy outcomes, providing timely and accurate information on material risks to the business
improving the tax team with actionable feedback from audits. As DoorDash's business has grown across the United States and the world, so have its tax audits and appeals.
You will work alongside a Senior Manager and Manager who oversee our portfolio of indirect tax audits, report to the controversy lead/tax counsel
engage with partners across Tax, Accounting
Tax Tech. You will be able to work remote, based within the US, with limited travel for team with events or offsites.
About the Role
This role is the Tax Controversy team's data and analytics expert. Fundamentally, you will be a master of answering audit questions with data — whether those questions come directly from a state or local tax auditor or internally as we gauge our risk on an issue. You will turn large, complex transactional datasets into clear, persuasive, well-documented answers
you will become fluent in the sales and use tax (and gross receipts tax) issues at the center of our audits.
You will be our primary interface with the Tax Tech team and our leader in applying modern AI tooling to controversy work — ingesting and reconciling auditor workpapers, summarizing transaction populations, drafting first-pass responses, and surfacing patterns in our data. You don't need to be an engineer
you do need to be a tax professional who is genuinely curious about these tools and ready to set the bar for how our team uses them.
You're excited about this opportunity because you will…
Be the team's go-to person for getting deep into audit data and producing the analyses that answer our hardest external and internal questions.
Build expertise on unsettled legal and factual issues in sales and use tax.
Lead our team's adoption of AI tooling — shaping how a modern in-house tax controversy function works.
Partner closely with our Tax Tech team and grow into the controversy team's expert on how DoorDash's data flows.
Roll up your sleeves on whatever the team needs — from a one-off auditor request to a multi-month data project.
We're excited about you because…
You have 4+ years of experience with state and local tax compliance, audits
controversy, gained inside a tax function — a Big 4 or consulting firm indirect tax practice, a state revenue agency
an in-house corporate tax team with a meaningful indirect tax operation.
You have a passion for finding answers in data. You don't just execute the steps you're given — you take a problem, get into the data, and come back with conclusions, flagging what looks wrong without being asked.
You thoroughly understand sales and use taxes, including marketplace facilitator laws. Experience with U.S. gross receipts taxes (e.g., Washington B&O, San Francisco GRT, Ohio CAT, Oregon CAT) is a strong plus.
You can critically analyze large transactional datasets, find the story they tell, and present that story clearly to auditors, the Tax Controversy Team, and internal stakeholders.
You are fluent with Microsoft Excel and competent with Alteryx.
You are comfortable working with a tax technology or data engineering team. e.
You are an enthusiastic user of modern AI tools (e.g., Claude) in a professional context. You can show us — with concrete examples — how you have used these tools to make your work better, faster, or more accurate.
You communicate clearly and concisely, manage multiple workstreams without losing the thread of any of them, and have a strong moral compass and compassion for others.
You have a Bachelor's degree or higher.
You have (preferably) experience in a high-growth technology, marketplace, or e-commerce company.
You have (preferably) direct experience working with state and local tax auditors. (This role is primarily an internal data and analysis role. Over time, you may have the opportunity to interface directly with tax authorities — but it is not where you'll start.)
We expect this position to be filled by 8/17/2026.
