United States, West Virginia

What the Candidate Will Do:

• Facilitate Your Portfolio: Build and steer a program that includes a diverse set of initiatives such as new product launches, optimizing our existing tech and/or processes, or enterprise system transformations.
• Drive Our Cadences: Support the “rhythm of our business” through program reporting and engagement between the Science org and our partner teams. This includes everything from tactical program reviews, to senior management reporting through channels like “Monthly Tech Day” (where our CEO is in attendance).
• Problem Solve & Operate Autonomously: We're faced with new and exciting problems that need creative solutions every single day! One day might include going deep to conduct analysis of a particular issue, the next might require zooming out to craft the strategy of a multi-year program with only general guidance from leadership.

• Roll Up Your Sleeves: Champion continuous improvement and strengthen operational efficiency by breaking down key business problems and building up sustainable solutions.
• Provide Leverage: Ensure continuous and effective coordination of the cross-functional teams executing work within or in parallel to your program; you take an ownership mentality no matter where you sit within the RACI matrix.
• Elevate Our Insights: Ensure that our teams address key strategic questions through analytical insights that build a long-term advantage for Uber.
