Description For Software Engineer II, Backend - Flash & Direct

Uber Connect and Direct are fast-growing products in the C2C (Consumer to Consumer) and B2C (Business to Consumer) spaces. This role will initially help with the development of the Uber Direct product, which is our business-level offering. We allow merchants to create deliveries by either using our Dashboard product or directly integrating with our public API. This lets a merchant add delivery services to their existing website or app.

As a Software Engineer II, Backend for Flash & Direct, you will collaborate with stakeholders within the team to build and maintain backend services and solutions to support user-facing products, downstream services, or infrastructure tools and platforms used across Uber. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Designing, developing, and maintaining backend systems and services
  • Writing clean, efficient, and well-documented code
  • Participating in code reviews and contributing to the development of engineering best practices
  • Debugging and troubleshooting complex issues across multiple systems
  • Collaborating with other teams to identify and resolve system bottlenecks
  • Ensuring that systems are secure and data is protected
  • Staying up-to-date with new technologies and methodologies related to backend development

We welcome people from all backgrounds who seek the opportunity to help build a future where everyone and everything can move independently. If you have the curiosity, passion, and collaborative spirit, work with us, and let's move the world forward, together.

Offices continue to be central to collaboration and Uber's cultural identity. Unless formally approved to work fully remotely, Uber expects employees to spend at least half of their work time in their assigned office. For certain roles, such as those based at green-light hubs, employees are expected to be in-office for 100% of their time. Please speak with your recruiter to better understand in-office expectations for this role.
