Software Engineer II - Autonomous Mobility & Delivery
Arkansas Staffing, San Francisco, California, United States, 94199
Autonomous Mobility & Delivery Team Role
The AM&D (Autonomous Mobility & Delivery) team owns the autonomous future of Uber's Rides and Eats business, which is one of Uber's most important bets as a public company that sets the world in motion. Our goal is to eventually enable mass-scale AV commercialization globally in all 10000+ cities Uber operates. We are just getting started. As we gradually but surely move towards this future, there are a full spectrum of engineering challenges that need to be tackled. Specifically: 1. How do we make sure Uber's customers, from riders, to eaters to merchants can have safe, informative and magical experiences with Uber without human driver interaction? 2. How do we drive AV adoptions with informative, trustworthy and exciting experiences? 3. How do we make sure a rider's autonomous ride share experience is still safe, informative and trustworthy without a human driver to interact with? From pickup, to on trip to drop off. What the Candidate Will Do Design and implement solutions and features within complex, highly scalable systems, ensuring the marketplace for autonomous vehicles operates efficiently at scale. Drive technical projects from inception to completion, collaborating with cross-functional partners such as product managers, data scientists, and operations teams to deliver impactful solutions. Develop and optimize algorithms to solve challenging problems in autonomous vehicle routing, matching, pricing, and incentive systems, directly influencing marketplace performance. Contribute to the creation of new features and platform capabilities, leveraging autonomous vehicle data and operational insights to build innovative solutions. Balance technical trade-offs between speed, performance, and quality, making informed decisions that align with both business goals and engineering best practices.
