About the Role

Uber is looking for a highly motivated individual to join our US & Canada Marketplace Operations team. If you love setting a vision, managing cross-functional partners, pushing projects forward to deliver strategically meaningful results, and solving problems from both 30,000 feet as well as deep in the details, this is the role for you!

We're generating vast amounts of data every day. We use this data to inform everything we do: ensure balance in the marketplace, identify ways to continually make the Uber experience better for drivers and riders, deploy incentives and promotions, understand customer behavior, develop and launch new product offerings, and more.

This role will focus on some of the most engaging and challenging problems at Uber, namely ensuring balance in the marketplace through pricing and incentives, and will have real and immediate impact on the day-to-day experience of our customers. Operations associates are responsible for developing strategies, such as how to target and deploy customer promotions, manage local markets, and identify and solve operational weaknesses. They balance improving or innovating new processes with setting and delivering on goals to meet business needs.
