Job Description

About the role and team

Engineering at Uber means building for real-world impact under real-world constraints. You’ll join a team that builds the platforms and services powering safe, affordable, and reliable movement in over 10,000 cities worldwide. The problems are complex, the systems are massive, and the pace is fast, requiring you to make smart decisions with guidance from seasoned peers. If you think in systems and care about building things that actually work for millions of people, this is where you'll grow.

We’re not looking for someone who just follows a manual; we need builders who thrive in ambiguity and own their growth. You’ll be part of a high-performance culture marked by perseverance, where your code directly impacts earners, riders, and merchants every day. This is a unique environment where the digital and physical worlds intersect, and every line of code helps move the world forward. You will face shifting priorities and legacy trade-offs, but that is exactly what makes the work meaningful and your impact tangible.

Rate of Pay: $153,000 to $169,000 per year

About Uber

We are Uber. The go-getters. The kind of people who are relentless about our mission to help people go anywhere and get anything and earn their way. Movement is what we power. It’s our lifeblood. It runs through our veins. It’s what gets us out of bed each morning. It pushes us to constantly reimagine how we can move better. For you. For all the places you want to go. For all the things you want to get. For all the ways you want to earn. Across the entire world. In real time. At the incredible speed of now.

The idea for Uber was born on a snowy night in Paris in 2008, and ever since then our DNA of reimagination and reinvention carries on. We’ve grown into a global platform powering flexible earnings and the movement of people and things in ever expanding ways. We’ve gone from connecting rides on 4 wheels to 2 wheels to 18-wheel freight deliveries. From takeout meals to daily essentials to prescription drugs to just about anything you need at any time and earning your way. From drivers with background checks to real-time verification, safety is a top priority every single day. At Uber, the pursuit of reimagination is never finished, never stops, and is always just beginning.
