You have 5+ years of backend engineering experience building production systems at scale — you've owned services from design through deployment and have war stories from debugging complex distributed systems issues. You possess deep expertise in Java and Spring — you've shipped high-throughput APIs that handle millions of requests and have strong opinions on service architecture, dependency injection, and testing strategies. You thrive in collaborative environments, working closely with stakeholders to understand their needs and translate them into technical solutions. Your experience includes optimizing backend services for performance and reliability, ensuring that user-facing products operate seamlessly. You are comfortable with agile methodologies and have a track record of delivering projects on time while maintaining high code quality.

You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand business requirements and translate them into technical specifications. Your responsibilities will include optimizing existing services for performance and reliability, as well as developing new features that enhance the user experience. You will participate in code reviews, ensuring that best practices are followed and that the codebase remains maintainable. You will also be involved in troubleshooting and resolving production issues, working closely with operations teams to ensure minimal downtime. As part of the Delivery and Ads teams, you will contribute to building innovative solutions that address complex logistical challenges and enhance advertising capabilities on the Uber platform. You will have the opportunity to work on high-impact projects that directly affect millions of users and drive business growth.
