About the Role
The Mobility Verticals org supports multiple verticals within Uber starting from well-established verticals like Airports, Reserve, Intercity, and Micro Mobility to new bets like Uber Shuttle, ETS/Shifts, Intercity, and Car Rentals which can be the next billion-dollar businesses leveraging one of the world's largest mobility platform. To succeed we are looking to disrupt the industry yet again through working on some of Uber’s most complex problems and coming up with brand-new ways to use Uber!
As Vertical run teams, we own holistic experiences and implantations throughout the Uber stack: Rider Experience, Driver Experience, and all of the complex Marketplace mechanics in the middle! We work incredibly closely with the business and are especially focused on ensuring Uber’s mobility business continues to grow rapidly through new product offerings and experiences! What’s even more exciting is that you get to build products that change the lives of millions of people and use these products every day!
If you’re excited about moving fast, building brand new experiences to improve user experiences, and working with really smart people who are deeply passionate about the problems at hand, while working on tech that has a worldwide scale and customers, Rider Verticals is for you!
