Manager, Earner Marketplace

About the Role 

We are seeking a highly strategic and outcomes-oriented Strategic Operations Manager to join the Earner Marketplace & Matching team within Uber's US & Canada Mobility business.

This team owns some of Uber's most important marketplace optimization challenges, shaping the strategies behind driver pricing, incentives, matching, positioning, and other marketplace levers that together determine marketplace reliability, efficiency, and long-term supply health. You'll partner closely with Product, Engineering, Data Science, and Operations teams to define strategies for solving complex marketplace challenges, influencing the evolution of Uber's marketplace technology and operations to deliver meaningful business impact.

As a senior operations leader for Earner Pricing and Matching, you will identify the highest-impact opportunities across the marketplace, develop long-term strategy, and drive complex cross-functional initiatives from concept through implementation. You'll turn ambiguous business challenges into clear strategies, align stakeholders around a shared direction, and drive execution to improve outcomes for drivers, riders, and Uber.

This role requires someone who can operate at multiple altitudes: setting long-term strategic direction while diving deep into complex marketplace problems to identify structural opportunities, evaluate difficult tradeoffs, and develop data-driven solutions. You'll be expected to lead through ambiguity, influence senior stakeholders across Product, Engineering, Data Science, and Operations, and deliver lasting marketplace and business impact.

• Deep marketplace expertise: Synthesize insights across pricing, matching, incentives, positioning, and quality to develop a holistic view of how these marketplace levers collectively drive outcomes.

Build compelling business cases, navigate difficult tradeoffs, and drive high-impact initiatives from concept through implementation.
• Strategic influence & communication: Champion the team's strategy through clear, compelling, and data-driven communication. Build alignment across Product, Engineering, Data Science, Operations, and leadership, influence key decisions and long-term priorities, and represent the team's perspective in high-impact forums.
