What the Candidate Will Do

As the Lead PM for the Catalog Ingestion Team you will be responsible for defining the vision and strategy for how we tackle the problem of getting every possible piece of information from merchants into Uber from product information, availability, pricing, store location, etc. You will need to define strategies for SMB's which may be more manual, to Enterprise which may prefer a more programmatically automated approach. In addition to building products, you'll need to partner closely with your Ops and Marketing partners to develop communications to help internal and external stakeholders understand our product capabilities and how to use them easily.

Additionally as an emerging business, we have a long list of merchants to integrate with, setting up a massive backlog of merchants that we need to prioritize between. You will be responsible for collaborating with program and ops teams to define a framework for which integration method is best for each merchant and what order we'll tackle the backlog in to ensure we're delivering the most value for Uber and merchants

Lastly, you will be responsible for maintaining a high-quality and healthy ingestion pipeline which requires defining the strategy for what health is. This means providing visibility into integrations and status of pipeline, detecting and alerting when issues occur, and tools and processes to quickly resolve issues when they arise.
