About the Role:

Uber Retail is a fast-growing startup within Uber that enables consumers to get just about anything delivered through the Uber Eats app or Uber Eats.com. As a Senior Strategic Operations Manager, you will own the performance and growth of our highest growth categories (e.g., retail, beauty, apparel, convenience, alcohol).
