Job Description

About the role and team

Engineering at Uber means building for real-world impact under real-world constraints. As a Software Engineer II on our Data and Storage teams, you will architect the foundational infrastructure that powers business decisions and core services for millions of users. Whether you are scaling distributed storage platforms or building high-performance data pipelines, you will be solving complex challenges at the intersection of low latency, high correctness, and massive scale.

The problems here are messy and the systems are global. You’ll need to make smart decisions with imperfect information, own your work end-to-end, and stay calm when high-load systems are on the line. We are looking for engineers who think in systems, pride themselves on robust monitoring, and believe that the best solutions are built through candid feedback and cross-functional collaboration. If you’re energized by challenges and motivated to move the real world - this is where you’ll grow.

Rate of Pay: $171,000 to $209,000 per Year

You will be eligible to participate in Uber's bonus program, and may be offered other types of comp. You will also be eligible for various benefits. More details can be found at the following link https://www.uber.com/careers/benefits.

  • Create intelligent systems for timely and contextually relevant communication.
  • Analyze requirements, design effective solutions, and ensure alignment with business objectives.
  • Foster cross-functional collaboration to define interfaces, bridge gaps, and achieve project milestones.
  • Productize solutions across the organization, continuously monitoring and refining based on real-world data.
  • Contribute to defining project scope and developing detailed project plans.
  • Architect robust software solutions based on requirements, prioritizing long-term sustainability, and participate in design reviews.
  • Translate designs into well-structured, readable, scalable, and configurable code, and participate in code reviews to maintain quality.
  • Implement essential system components such as logging, monitoring, alerting, and debugging tools for efficient issue detection and resolution.
  • Provide post-deployment support for team-developed production systems and ensure timely troubleshooting.
  • May telecommute.

Basic Qualifications

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.
