About the Role:
Ensuring safe and insured experiences for all users at all times is part of Uber's core mission. We have an opportunity to lean into making Safety a core brand differentiator. Safety & Insurance products span across the Uber lifecycle - from onboarding to on-trip to post-trip and customer support, building tech to predict and prevent safety incidents while empowering users to feel protected in every single interaction along the user journey. In the event of an incident, our Insurance tech ensures we take care of users with empathy, care, fairness and expediency. This means providing insurance coverage and personalized protection at the right time and right value. Our products are also nuanced based on geographies, and offerings (think cash markets, two-wheeler heavy markets). As we scale our efforts into more dimensions and marketplaces, we need an experienced technologist to help steer the long term vision of our engineering stack.
Sr Staff engineers at Uber have a deep impact across a wide variety of business and technology decisions spanning multiple projects and locations. They are passionate and pragmatic technologists who are able to design scalable systems while delivering efficient code.

  • Execute large scale projects - Provide technical leadership in architecting and building mission-critical distributed systems. Collaborate across teams to deliver a result, from hardworking team members within your group, through smart technologists across product lines, to responsible leaders across Uber.
  • Be a role model on acting with good judgment and responsibility. Deal with a difference in opinions in a mature and fair way, helping teams to commit and move forward
  • Raise the bar on sustainable engineering by improving standard methodologies, producing best-in-class code, documentation, testing, and monitoring


Basic Qualifications:
