Groupon has named Aditya Rajkumar chief operating officer, effective Aug. 3, 2026, putting a former DoorDash and 7-Eleven operating executive in charge of its marketplace and merchant operations.
Rajkumar arrives from 7-Eleven, where he led Skipcart and last-mile operations as vice president of last mile. Before that, he spent more than four years at DoorDash in senior P&L and operating roles, most recently as general manager of Caviar and Premium. Earlier in his career, he was a senior manager in Deloitte’s M&A strategy and operations practice.
The appointment comes as Groupon’s leadership frames the business around a new operating phase tied to “AI-native growth” and “agentic commerce.” Chief Executive Dusan Senkypl said Rajkumar brings the operating discipline and marketplace experience needed for the next stage of the company’s transformation.
Rajkumar said he will focus on putting customers first, helping people discover local experiences at value, and helping merchants reach new customers and grow.
The company did not announce any financial figures, revenue changes, profit metrics, or operating results alongside the appointment.
