About the Role

Uber Advertising is at the heart of our mission to connect users with the merchants and services they love. This role offers a unique opportunity to join a high-growth organization where you will contribute to one of two critical pillars:

• These are 2 teams under Ads Organization

• Ads Relevance**: As a backend engineer, you will work on the entire ad delivery flow: retrieval, auction, and ranking. You'll tackle the complex problem of matching the right ad to the right user, significantly impacting the Ads platform and merchant partners. This is a high-impact, cross-LOB role.- Ads Metrics & Attribution: Build the high-throughput streaming "source of truth" for our multi-billion dollar ads business. You will dive into system internals to architect a platform capable of validating and attributing billions of signals in real-time with 100% accuracy.**

• What You'll Do

• Architect and implement high-performance backend services and data pipelines capable of handling billions of signals at Uber's global scale.

• Dive deep into system internals (e.g., Apache Flink, JVM tuning) to solve complex challenges around sub-20ms latency and high-concurrency serving.

• Partner with Product, Data Science, and Design to turn advertiser needs into technical specs for new ad products and attribution features.

• Participate in on-call rotations and drive operational excellence to maintain "Tier-0" availability and data integrity.

• Write clean, testable code, contribute to design reviews, and mentor other engineers to raise the bar for engineering craftsmanship.

• Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

• 3-5 years of professional software engineering work experience.

• Solid proficiency in at least one modern backend language: Java, Go, or C++.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Past ads experience, specially in ad delivery area

• Experience working in any of problem domains ie. ranking, retrieval, bid optimization or budget pacing systems

• Ability to learn quickly on the go. We're looking for software engineers who thrive while learning new technologies and don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions.

• You should be able to easily adapt to meet the needs of our massive growth and rapidly-evolving business environment.

• Deep system design skills. You know how to build highly-scalable, robust, and fault-tolerant services that support our unique exponential growth requirements.

• Bias toward action. You believe that speed and quality aren't mutually exclusive. You've shown good judgment about shipping as fast as possible while ensuring your products and platforms are built in a sustainable, responsible way--and you're comfortable making mistakes, provided you learn from them.

• Passion and energy. You bring infectious enthusiasm to all your endeavors. You always perform at your best and drive those around you to do the same. You see new challenges as an opportunity to contribute, make an impact, and grow.

• Strong collaboration in the way you develop and ownership of the systems and products you build.
