Uber

#### **About the Role:** Our deployment platform enforces policies and gathers signals, ensuring that changes to Uber's production systems are rolled out incrementally and reverted if signals suggest a potential issue. We want to make production deployments stress-free for engineers across Uber, providing guardrails that continually evolve as we add new workload types. With ~700k rollout operations per week across deployment systems, orchestrating changes to roll out safely is challenging—and we are excited about solving it! Our platform makes informed decisions with a high degree of precision and accuracy, to detect possible incidents and regressions early and automatically, thereby minimizing the chance of outages. We offer automatic rollbacks of bad deployments, emergency deploy policies, lockdown of systems during an active incident, incident mitigation capabilities, and other critical capabilities that help Uber innovate at ‌ remarkable speed. If you're excited about tackling complex, high-impact challenges that keep Uber’s business running efficiently, and constantly evolving, we want you on our team. You'll be working on a critical platform that powers fast, secure, and reliable deployments, ensuring that innovation happens quickly without compromising safety.
