In addition to leading a high-performing team focused on North America, this role offers a unique opportunity to influence and collaborate with peers in other mega-regions, with potential dotted-line leadership across EMEA, APAC, and LATAM.

At Uber, the work moves fast and at global scale - and your role in uBecome is to build early-career talent ready to take on that challenge, where what you shape today directly affects how Uber moves the world tomorrow. This is not just a recruiting role-it's a strategic leadership position at the intersection of talent, business, and the future of Tech at Uber.
