About the Role

Uber is looking for a Sr. Engineering Manager to support our Mobility Matching teams. As the EM, you will have ownership of all aspects of growing your domain and relevant products.

Your contributions will directly impact the experience of millions of users worldwide. We are open to consider Tech Lead Management archetypes too.

Matching is broadly part of the Marketplace (PIMS) org, a central pillar to Uber's core technology which includes pricing, incentives/investments, matching, surge, etc. for both mobility and delivery. As the key brain of the company, we are the decision makers that make moving from point A to point B possible for every trip or order that Uber serves, from UberX to Eats to new verticals such as grocery. Within the org, we're part of Matching and Driver Pricing teams - which are critical to the company's success as it manages the complex dynamics of supply and demand, optimizes matching algorithms, and continuously innovates to enhance the overall user experience for both riders and drivers. Improvements in these systems increase revenue in the hundreds of millions of dollars, and decrease wasted time of drivers and users.
