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 engineers to join our team to help grow the UberEats ads business which enables eaters to discover new foods, and restaurants to grow their customer base. You'll work with teams behind apps used by millions globally every day and be a part of the technical foundations of a new product.

What You'll Do

Work on adding new capabilities to ads product
Improve scalability, reliability and efficiency of ads tech stack

Basic Qualifications

Technical strength with 2+ years of experience developing and shipping code for production systems
You have a strong command of a backend stack (eg. Golang, Java, Node.js, Python, etc)

Preferred Qualifications

Past ads experience, specially in ad delivery area
Experience working in any of problem domains ie. ranking, retrieval, bid optimization or budget pacing systems
Ability to learn quickly on the go. We're looking for software engineers who thrive while learning new technologies and don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. You should be able to easily adapt to meet the needs of our massive growth and rapidly-evolving business environment.
Deep system design skills. You know how to build highly-scalable, robust, and fault-tolerant services that support our unique exponential growth requirements.
Bias toward action. You believe that speed and quality aren't mutually exclusive. You've shown good judgment about shipping as fast as possible while ensuring your products and platforms are built in a sustainable, responsible way--and you're comfortable making mistakes, provided you learn from them.
Passion and energy. You bring infectious enthusiasm to all your endeavors. You always perform at your best and drive those around you to do the same. You see new challenges as an opportunity to contribute, make an impact, and grow.
Strong collaboration in the way you develop and ownership of the systems and products you build.
Pride in the code you write and have a strong sense of engineering craftsmanship
