About the Role
Uber is redefining the future of grocery & retail. A company that started by transporting people from place to place, now transports nearly anything a customer could want or need, on-demand. The Grocery Engineering Team is responsible for ensuring that as we move to transport more than just people & restaurant food, our platform evolves to provide a best-in-class experience for customers, earners and brands. Today this team is focused on grocery, but will continue to flex into a longer tail of categories in the future.

On this team, you'll work closely with product, operations, and other engineering teams throughout the company. Also, we work closely with vendors and merchants that need to integrate their business with Uber.
