The Marketplace Signals team at Uber is responsible for building and optimizing foundational marketplace signals that power user experiences and drive marketplace efficiency. Our team ensures that key signals-such as eyeball ETA, spinner time, and supply reliability indicators-are leveraged effectively across various Uber products and levers, enabling data-driven decision-making and seamless coordination across different business functions. As a Staff Machine Learning Engineer, you will design, develop, and scale advanced ML models to enhance these signals, ensuring they are accurate, reliable, and optimized for Uber's dynamic marketplace. Your work will have a direct impact on pricing, matching, driver incentives, reliability metrics, and customer experience.
