Engineering Manager II - Advanced Matching, Retail
Top Benefits
About the role
About The Role At Uber Delivery, we're at the forefront of revolutionizing how people get the things they need, right to their doorstep. We tackle complex challenges daily, from optimizing delivery routes in dense urban environments to ensuring seamless inventory management and real-time order fulfillment. The sheer scale and speed of our operations demand innovative solutions that blend cutting-edge technology with practical, real-world application.
The Advanced Matching team is at the heart of this innovation, specifically focused on solving the intricate problems of pairing demand (orders) with supply (delivery partners and merchants) in the most efficient and intelligent ways possible. This involves developing sophisticated algorithms that consider a myriad of factors, including distance, delivery partner availability, order contents, predicted preparation times, and even real-time traffic conditions. Our work directly impacts delivery speed, reliability, and ultimately, customer, courier and merchant satisfaction.
The Retail opportunity within the delivery business is immense and growing rapidly. As consumer expectations shift towards instant gratification and convenient access to a wider range of goods, the ability to deliver non-food retail items efficiently and reliably is becoming a critical differentiator. This space presents unique challenges, from handling diverse product types to managing varying delivery speeds and ensuring seamless integration with retail partners. This is a high-growth area with significant potential to expand Uber's footprint beyond food delivery and redefine the future of local commerce.

About Uber
We are Uber. The go-getters. The kind of people who are relentless about our mission to help people go anywhere and get anything and earn their way. Movement is what we power. It’s our lifeblood. It runs through our veins. It’s what gets us out of bed each morning. It pushes us to constantly reimagine how we can move better. For you. For all the places you want to go. For all the things you want to get. For all the ways you want to earn. Across the entire world. In real time. At the incredible speed of now.
The idea for Uber was born on a snowy night in Paris in 2008, and ever since then our DNA of reimagination and reinvention carries on. We’ve grown into a global platform powering flexible earnings and the movement of people and things in ever expanding ways. We’ve gone from connecting rides on 4 wheels to 2 wheels to 18-wheel freight deliveries. From takeout meals to daily essentials to prescription drugs to just about anything you need at any time and earning your way. From drivers with background checks to real-time verification, safety is a top priority every single day. At Uber, the pursuit of reimagination is never finished, never stops, and is always just beginning.
