Engineering Manager 2

About the Role

Uber is changing the way people think about transportation. Not that long ago, we were just an app to request premium black cars in a few metropolitan areas. Now we’re a part of the logistical fabric of cities everywhere. Whether it’s a ride, a sandwich, or a package, we use technology to give people what they want, when they want it.

We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to join the Growth and Marketing platform team to help the Comms platform become an effective tool to enable diverse use cases such as transactional uses (seamless logins), ads and promotions (marketing) campaigns that enable diverse use cases such as eaters to discover new foods and restaurants to grow their customer base.

You’ll lead and work with teams behind apps used by millions globally every day and be a part of the technical foundations and product growth for these areas. In hundreds of cities, people tap their phones to get a ride, get food delivered, or earn extra cash with Uber; we’re looking for engineering leaders to help us ensure every one of those experiences is magical.
