The Marketplace Fares Platform Team powers global fares for all of Uber - that’s all riders, drivers, eaters, new initiatives and technical consumers. Tens of billions of dollars in gross bookings flow through the systems and experiences within our responsibility. Our scope and critical work spans the entire stack - from platform fare calculation for riders and drivers, to data science prediction of trustworthy upfront prices, to compelling mobile fare experiences for our customers. Fares is a full stack team with two product-centric tracks supporting the mobility & delivery business verticals and multiple platform-centric tracks (Fares Integrity, Reliability, Data & Framework). On this team, you’ll work closely with product, operations, data science, and engineering teams throughout the company.
Job Responsibility:
Lead and mentor a high-performing engineering team, fostering a culture of technical excellence and accountability. Drive the technical vision and roadmap by consistently translating complex business and product requirements into generic, reusable platform capabilities that ensure scale, reliability, and financial precision across the entire Fares system
Own the design and architecture of highly scalable, reliable, and financially precise Fares calculation and distribution systems. Apply a rigorous platform mindset to solve the high-cardinality vs precision vs scale problem of real-time fare computation, ensuring all solutions are extensible and integrate seamlessly with critical downstream systems like money movement, tax, and accounting
Own the end-to-end execution of critical platform projects (e.g., core fare integrity systems, new financial product rollouts). Implement and refine planning and prioritization processes to manage competing demands. Ensure best-in-class operational health, driving initiatives for service reliability, performance, and the efficient validation of complex, multi-dimensional fare changes
Proactively partner with Product, Data Science, Operations, Finance, and Tax teams to gather requirements, manage dependencies, and drive consensus. Represent the team in critical technical and product discussions, providing strategic input and ensuring the Fares platform's capabilities are leveraged effectively across all of Uber’s lines of business
