Job Summary

DoorDash is looking for an experienced Manager, Tax Technology to lead the offshore Vertex & ERP Integrations Center of Excellence (CoE) within our growing Tax Team. The tax engine (Vertex) calculates the correct sales tax and VAT on every order across the DoorDash, Wolt, and Deliveroo platforms, and this role owns the deep technical expertise that keeps that engine accurate.

As DoorDash continues to grow its global footprint across multiple business lines, we are looking for a candidate with hands-on experience implementing, configuring, and maintaining indirect tax engines, with the integration to ERP systems on both AR and AP sides, who can also lead and develop a team of configuration and testing specialists.

- Serve as the senior point of escalation for defects found during testing and provide the go-live technical recommendation for production releases.
- Partner with Vertex to understand updates to product offerings, tax engine technical Q&A;, and manage Vertex support tickets.
- Oversee monthly Vertex content review,



quarterly Vertex service releases and validation and maintain the integrity of the fallback system.
- Own the overall Vertex governance framework and provide cross-functional access and review to other tax teams (e.g. Tax Advisory and Planning Team).
- Provide technical impact assessments for new business initiatives, new verticals, engine migrations, and integrations.
- Own the ERP-to-Vertex integration (e.g. Oracle NetSuite), ensuring transactions flow correctly from upstream ERP systems and calculated tax flows into finance systems (NetSuite) and downstream reporting.
- Partner with cross functional teams and translate business and tax requirements into system logic, and review BRDs, PRDs, and TDDs for tax-system implications.
