About the role and team

Autonomous Mobility & Delivery Product Ops. Product Operations at Uber is where ambitious technology meets real-world execution.In this role, you will sit at the high-stakes intersection of our Autonomous partnership launches and global growth, serving as the bridge between external partner tech teams and Uber's internal product roadmap. You'll be responsible for owning partner relationships end-to-end, from the first technical discovery through launch and long-term expansion, ensuring our Autonomous platform offering and APIs move the world forward safely and efficiently.

This isn't a polished, predictable environment; you will navigate deep technical complexity, shifting internal dependencies, and the high-pressure reality of 0-1 launches. We are looking for someone with a "go-get-it" attitude and a strategic mindset who can find clarity in ambiguity and lead through influence rather than control. If you are energized by the challenge of building new business models at a global scale and have the grit to manage both partner expectations and technical trade-offs, you will thrive here.

What you'll do

- Lead the end-to-end technical discovery, scoping, and roadmap setting for 0-1 Autonomous partner launches, balancing external needs with internal engineering constraints.

- Navigate the messiness of global expansion by aligning cross-functional stakeholders-including Business Development, Marketing, and Legal-to unblock execution and optimize operating structures.

- Translate complex partner feedback and market dynamics into actionable business plans, advising Tech teams on the global feasibility and business implications of the product portfolio.

- Own core business metrics post-launch, identifying technical or geographical problem areas and driving the solutions needed to scale new business models.

- Influence Tech and Business leadership by communicating a clear vision for partnership growth, ensuring the product roadmap reflects the reality of the external landscape.

- Build strategic frameworks and playbooks from scratch to standardize how we scale Autonomous products across different regions and partner types.

Basic Qualifications

- Minimum 8 years of experience in operations, business consulting, finance, or a similar analytical role.

- Minimum 5 years Managing IC's in a similar capacity
- Experience working with Uber-like tech products, large-scale B2C products, or two-sided marketplaces.

- Experience managing external partners, clients, or customers in a high-stakes environment such as partnerships, sales, or solutions engineering.

- Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.

Preferred Qualifications

- Demonstrated ability to convert unstructured problems into focused plans of execution while managing multiple stakeholder groups with conflicting priorities.
- Experience working within tech across global projects or in an international setting.
- Proficiency in using data to inform critical decisions and measure the quality and impact of product launches.
- High technical depth with the ability to develop fluency in platform offerings, APIs, and complex system integrations.
- A self-starter mindset with a proven track record of fostering collaboration and leading through influence in a fast-paced environment.
