You will help create frameworks and libraries for our Serverless platform as well as drive creation of tools to automate and simplify various aspects of engineering work that will be used by thousands of internal developers - from commit-time validation to life log streaming from production. Your role will be vital to sustaining Uber's rapid growth while building best-in-breed libraries and tooling for our engineers. We're a part of the Infrastructure group, and that makes us "the engineers for the engineers". Our mission is to create a frictionless development experience that frees Uber Builders to focus on Making Magic for our customers.

  • You identify emerging patterns and get ahead of the need for new tools, resources, and automation.
  • You're excited by the idea of building highly concurrent, scalable code with clean abstractions that make scaling complex systems simple and fun.
  • You're a quality czar. You like to go fast, but you also recognize the importance of testing and quality code.
  • You care about writing clear documentation so that other engineers can jump in and get stuff done.

Qualifications:

  • Expert level in at least one of these (bonus for more than one): Go, Python, Java, C#, C++
  • Experience delivering libraries, APIs, platforms, tools, etc. to other developers.
  • Experience improving code quality through some combination of unit tests, load/performance tests, integration tests, continuous deployment, UI tests and monitoring
  • Experience with development and maintenance features for polyglot software systems
