About the Role:
Uber Grocery & Retail is scaling into a daily-use, trust-based delivery platform. Fulfillment Optimization is at the center of that ambition.
As Senior Product Manager, Grocery Fulfillment**, you will own the systems and decision logic that determine whether an order is fulfilled at all - and how reliably, efficiently, and cost-effectively it happens when conditions are imperfect.**
This role sits at the intersection of marketplace algorithms, real-world logistics, and customer trust**. You will work deeply with** Marketplace and Data Science to design solutions that dynamically adapt to supply, demand, store readiness, and inevitable failure modes - without degrading the customer or earner experience.
The work spans both physical-world execution**(stores, couriers, timing, constraints) and** abstract optimization**(modeling, tradeoffs, objective functions). The outcome directly impacts reliability, unit economics, and long-term platform credibility.**
What the Candidate Will Do:
You'll tackle some of Uber's most complex fulfillment problems - where software decisions meet the realities of grocery stores, couriers, and time-bound customer expectations.
In this role, you will:
- Own the decision logic behind grocery fulfillment, shaping how orders are planned, matched, recovered, and completed when real-world conditions change.
- Design resilient fulfillment systems that improve reliability and reduce cancellations, missed deliveries, and partial fulfillment - treating recovery and degradation as core product problems, not edge cases.
- Partner closely with Marketplace and Data Science to define algorithmic approaches that balance reliability, cost efficiency, earner experience, and store readiness.
- Translate operational complexity into product and modeling requirements, ensuring systems behave predictably across edge cases, degraded states, and at scale.
- Help shift fulfillment from reactive to proactive, building systems that anticipate risk (e.g., scheduled orders, supply variability, store performance) and adapt before customers feel the impact.
This role offers a rare opportunity to work simultaneously on logistics systems and optimization models, with direct influence on customer trust and business performance.
Basic Qualifications:
- 5+ years of product management experience **delivering successful, durable products, with clear ownership and outcomes you can point to. Your fingerprints are all over what shipped, what scaled, and what materially improved the business.**2. Strong technical and operational fluency.**You've either built complex systems directly or worked close enough to real-world operations, such as supply chain, warehousing, fulfillment centers, or logistics networks to understand how theory breaks in practice. You can reason comfortably from high-level system design down to edge cases, data flows, and how software behaves under real operational constraints and failure modes.**3. Experience building algorithmic or ML-adjacent products **in close partnership with Data Science. You understand how objective functions, constraints, experimentation, and model tradeoffs translate into real marketplace and fulfillment outcomes.**4. Exceptional attention to detail.**You obsess over how systems behave in the real world - across customers, earners, merchants, and operations - and you notice the gaps, edge cases, and failure modes others miss.**5. Customer obsession.**You take on messy, high-stakes problems and find elegant, simple solutions so customers and partners don't have to carry platform complexity.**6. A strong "driver" mindset.**You are biased toward action, a great collaborator, a master disambiguator and simplifier, and relentless about pushing work to clarity and delivery.**7. Sound judgment under ambiguity.**You can reason through multi-sided tradeoffs, reliability, cost, customer experience, earner experience, and merchant outcomes, and make principled decisions with imperfect information.**8. A consistently high bar.**For your own contributions and for the products you ship.**9. A never-ending desire to learn and grow.You seek feedback, adapt quickly, and continuously sharpen your craft.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Fulfillment and/or marketplace experience**, especially in logistics, last-mile delivery, or multi-sided platforms.**2. Experience building products from 0→1 **in ambiguous problem spaces.**3. Experience in grocery, retail, CPG, or e-commerce **environments.**4. Experience launching products side-by-side with Data Science teams.
