Protective Services Agent

DoorDash's Protective Services function safeguards executives, their families, and residences through executive protection, residential security, threat management, and secure transportation across a three-brand global enterprise. The team operates 24/7 and is built on the principle that protection starts before an incident, not after. The people who do this work well combine operational discipline with personal composure, take ownership of outcomes rather than tasks, and represent the program in every interaction with the principal population.

The Protective Services Agent provides close protection for DoorDash executives and their families across all operating environments, including corporate headquarters, domestic and international travel, company events, and residential settings. The role requires a trained executive protection professional who develops and implements security plans, conducts advances and risk assessments, coordinates with law enforcement and venue partners, and serves as the principal's primary security presence. Personnel must be capable of managing incidents and serving as first responders on scene. Operations regularly involve extended duty periods, irregular schedules, and short-notice deployments. Potential travel up to 25% of the time.
