What You'll Do

• Strengthen Uber's brand and profile with federal policy makers, elected officials, third parties and stakeholders.
• Coordinate Uber's legislative and political strategy throughout the federal government on Uber, Uber Eats, Uber Health, grocery delivery, transit, etc. This includes tracking legislation and regulations relevant to Uber.
• Work to ensure that legislative and regulatory frameworks enable the benefits of Uber for our customers and cities across the United States.

• Partner with government and third parties on innovative transport solutions.

Basic Qualifications

• 6+ years of relevant professional experience in federal affairs, public policy, government affairs or related
• Bachelor's Degree

Preferred Qualifications

• Strong campaigner: We succeed by putting together effective campaigns with third parties on behalf of the passengers, eaters, and drivers who use the app. That means you'll have a bias for action in everything you do, and also building strong intuition for business, covering issues related to mobility, delivery, safety, insurance, future of work and/or automation.

• Self starter: We are a company of entrepreneurs, and we want to work with people who enjoy building things from the bottom up too. Things change fast at a global company like Uber so you'll need to be highly adaptable as well as calm under pressure.

• Expert advocate: We want someone who can distill complex ideas into simple, but intellectually credible, arguments. This person should write well and have the creative ability to tell stories--about our product, people and the ways we're helping to improve life for riders, drivers, couriers, and cities across the United States.

• Collaborative teammate: Success at Uber depends on the ability to coordinate different teams (internally and externally) around shared goals. We look for collaborators who can get stuff done--and who can deal with the ambiguity that sometimes comes from working cross-functionally.

• Past experience working in the political and policy landscape on technology and transportation issues at the federal level is a plus.

For Washington, DC-based roles: The base salary range for this role is USD$157,000 per year - USD$174,000 per year.
