Delivery Marketplace is a central pillar to Uber’s delivery products. As the central brain of the company, we are the decision makers that make moving from point A to point B possible for every order that Uber serves, from UberEats to new verticals such as Grocery. We handle all the logic from making the dispatch decisions, predicting how long a delivery might take, and estimating optimal pickup times for orders. We build products that directly impact Uber's top and bottom lines. Senior Staff Optimization Engineers spearhead strategic initiatives across the Delivery Marketplace and partner organizations. In this role, you will drive the end-to-end lifecycle of complex optimization solutions—from abstract ideation to production deployment. You will lead the evolution of our algorithmic stack, integrating online optimization and reinforcement learning with real-time signals to solve the company’s most critical business challenges.
