Groupon has named Aditya Rajkumar chief operating officer, effective Aug. 3, 2026, adding a senior operator as the company pushes into what it calls its next phase of AI-native growth.
Rajkumar will report to Chief Executive Officer Dusan Senkypl and take charge of Groupon’s marketplace and merchant operations.
The hire brings in an executive with experience running large-scale local commerce and delivery businesses. At 7-Eleven, he most recently led Skipcart and last-mile operations as vice president, overseeing delivery and last-mile execution across one of the world’s largest convenience retail networks. Before that, he spent more than four years at DoorDash in senior P&L and operating roles, including as general manager of Caviar and Premium. Earlier in his career, he worked in Deloitte’s M&A strategy and operations practice.
Senkypl said Rajkumar’s background fits the company’s current operating priorities, especially as Groupon works on marketplace execution and merchant performance. Rajkumar said he was drawn to Groupon’s position between consumer demand and local supply and to the opportunity to pair that with stronger operating discipline.
The appointment adds a new layer to Groupon’s leadership structure as it tries to sharpen execution around local commerce and merchant growth. Today the company's shares have moved 3.83% to a price of $17.09. For more information, read the company's full 8-K submission here.
