Expansion Program Manager, AV Fleets

About the Role

Uber is at the forefront of building the autonomous vehicle (AV) future - one that brings together AV technology developers, fleet operators, infrastructure partners, and regulators into a seamless hybrid ecosystem. As a Launcher, you'll play a foundational role in turning new markets live - bringing sites online, orchestrating cross-functional teams, and building launch processes that scale.

You are a dynamic generalist with the tenacity to solve ambiguous problems, build new systems from scratch, and hustle toward launch-readiness with precision. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a high-travel, high-autonomy environment, capable of both strategic thinking and boots-on-the-ground execution. You embody true grit - resourceful, relentless, and always moving forward.

What You'll Do

• Own end-to-end execution for new AV fleet market launches - from pre-launch planning through day-one operations.
• Drive cross-functional coordination across product, engineering, infra, operations, safety, and external AV partners.
• Operationalize launch playbooks into repeatable templates and identify blockers to AV fleet deployment.
• Stand up systems: from staffing to depot readiness, fleet tools to training.
• Manage launch budgets and schedules using Google sheets and other tools.
• Build dashboards, slides, and weekly updates for leadership and partner consumption.
• Interface with AV developer partners, facility managers, and internal operations leads to ensure full readiness.
• Serve as launch quarterback on-site - resolving real-time issues, conducting on-the-ground assessments, and ensuring operational excellence.

Basic Qualifications

• 3-5 years of program management, operations, consulting, or launch-related experience.
• Exceptional communication skills - both verbal and visual (Slides).
• Strong Excel/Google Sheets capabilities; SQL proficiency strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated ability to manage complex projects with many stakeholders.
• Comfortable with ambiguity; thrives in high-autonomy, high-travel roles.
• Strong ownership mindset and proven track record of grit and problem-solving.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building something from scratch.
• Experience in mobility, autonomous vehicles, logistics, or fleet tech.
• Background in managing or supporting multi-market expansions.
• Experience managing third party partners.
• Track record building processes/playbooks from scratch.
• Prior experience interfacing with technical teams (e.g., network engineering, OEMs, or construction buildout).
