About the Role
Uber Eats is one of the largest and most complex marketplace businesses, connecting customers, merchants, and couriers across restaurants, grocery and retail stores, as well as merchant white-labeled delivery. Our US&C Marketplace Ops team sits at the center of that ecosystem, owning the health, efficiency, and reliability of the marketplace across millions of daily orders.
As a Senior Operations Manager on the team, you’ll help shape marketplace strategy and performance, leveraging data to understand how the marketplace is performing, identify opportunities, and drive improvements across customer experience, courier efficiency, and unit economics.

This role combines strategy, analytics, and execution. You’ll own complex marketplace problems end-to-end, influence cross-functional priorities, and help shape the future of US&C marketplace operations.
