About the Role

The Sustainability Tech team at Uber is tasked with enabling Uber to meet its public commitments to zero out tailpipe emissions and packaging waste. We drive sustainability impact by helping drivers and couriers transition to electric vehicles, by helping merchants transition to sustainable packaging materials, and by increasing demand for low-emissions Rides products and low-waste Eats merchants. Our focus is narrow but our scope is broad, and our work touches every aspect of the business.

The Engineer will collaborate with others on the team and adjacent teams to quickly prototype new products, while holding a high bar on engineering excellence, across all of Uber’s flagship mobile apps.
