Job description

Senior Software Engineering - Fullstack

About the team

Uber Courier is one of the fastest growing businesses at Uber. It is an on-demand C2C package delivery service used by small businesses and consumers. We have recently crossed $1B in ARR and are still scratching the surface. The product is popular in Brazil & India and has a lot of headroom to grow in EMEA and US&C. Aside from core send & receive packages workflows, the product has many other use cases such as store pick-ups, package returns, intercity deliveries (in Brazil), etc., as well as new use cases we're piloting where a courier can be delegated tasks during the span of a delivery trip. The tech team is spread across US & India.

This role sits on the Courier Booking Experience team, contributing to modernizing the consumer booking flow, improving user comprehension and conversion, and building a delightful and intelligent experience catering to different user segments' needs. The team operates with a high degree of trust and autonomy - engineers own their area end-to-end, push back on each other's designs in review, and hold a high bar. We like working with people who care about the craft as much as the outcome.

About the role

Engineering at Uber means building for real-world impact under real-world constraints. As a Fullstack Senior Software Engineer with rich front-end experience, you'll work on a fullstack product engineering team, helping drive a multi-quarter strategy to build cross-platform foundations for a C2C/C2B product - defining technical goals, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams, and solving meaningful business problems with well-reasoned technical solutions.

You'll own your area end-to-end: identifying opportunities to solve meaningful problems, breaking them into solvable pieces, defining technical solution deliverables, upholding engineering operational excellence, writing technical design docs, and debugging production issues when the stakes are high. We're looking for someone who is not just technically capable but has the agency to drive things forward, wearing different hats as needed to get there.

What you'll do

Key points to cover for this role:


Basic Qualifications

For New York City, NY-based roles: The base salary range for this role is USD $202,000 per year - USD $224,000 per year.

Ready to Ride?

This isn't the kind of place where you follow a playbook - it's where you help write one. If you're driven by impact, energized by challenge, and ready to shape how the world moves - we'd love to hear from you.

You may be eligible for bonuses, equity, and other compensation, as well as a range of benefits. Explore our benefits.

Offices remain key to collaboration and Uber's culture. Unless approved for full remote work, employees must spend at least 50% of their time in-office. Some roles, like those at greenlight hubs, require full-time in-office presence. Ask your Recruiter for details about this role's requirements.

How to prepare and behave

This is editorial guidance, not information from the employer.

Know your rights as a candidate and an employee:

The city

The job is in New York, NY. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.

How New York compares. Among the 120 largest places in New York, New York is #1 by population, #117 for homeownership (#1 = highest), #115 for long commutes (#1 = fewest), #31 for remote work (#1 = most). Its county, Kings County, is #38 of 62 counties for average pay ($59,980).

The place in numbers

New York has 8,483,844 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 42.7% of the population of New York. It covers 300 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 28,236 people per square mile. The median age is 38.2, 4% younger than the state median (38.2 against 39.8).

Housing

The median gross rent is $1,821 a month (rent plus utilities), 12% above the state median ($1,821 against $1,621). Over a year that is 27.2% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $777,600, which is 9.7 times the median household income ($80,483); a ratio above 5 usually means buying is out of reach without savings or a second income. 32.8% of households own their home, 40% below the state average (32.8% against 54.4%). A low ownership share points to a rental-heavy market with more apartments and shorter stays.

Work and pay

The New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ metropolitan area has 9,492,000 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $61,430 a year, 20% above the national median ($61,430 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are office and administrative support (1,109,360 jobs, median $55,080); healthcare support (843,730 jobs, median $40,100); sales and related (751,110 jobs, median $47,540). The area is most specialised in healthcare support (1.8 times) and legal (1.7 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($171,990) and legal ($150,990). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of Kings County was 5.3%. 63.1% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in Kings County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.

Getting around

Among workers, 21.6% drive alone, 44.0% use public transit, 9.2% walk, 16.9% work from home. 41.2% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 50% above the state average (41.2% against 27.4%).

People and education

41.6% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 4% above the state share (41.6% against 40.2%). 36.6% of residents were born outside the United States, 61% above the state share (36.6% against 22.8%). The poverty rate is 17.9%, 28% above the state rate (17.9% against 14.0%).

Climate

The warmest month is Jul, averaging 75°F (23.7°C), and the coolest is Jan at 34°F (1.1°C). About 1,313 mm (52 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Dec is the wettest month (133 mm) and Feb the driest (95 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.

Nearby cities to compare

Closest cities in this guide: Hoboken (7 miles, rent 61% higher); Jersey City (7 miles, rent 10% higher); Union City (9 miles, rent 16% lower); Bayonne (9 miles, rent 8% lower). Rent differences are against New York; use the Compare tab to put any two cities side by side.
