About the Role

Engineering at Uber means building for real-world impact under real-world constraints.

• Unblock Complex Journeys: Solve high-impact problems within Employee Onboarding and Lifecycle Events, often without a clear starting point, to create seamless transitions for every Uber employee.
• Champion Excellence: Lead technical workshops and conduct code reviews to ensure upgrade safety and architectural health, even when time is tight and stakes are high.
• Own the Integration: Build and maintain robust integrations between ServiceNow and enterprise systems like Oracle HCM and JIRA, owning the work from initial design to production debugging.
• Collaborate and Influence: Partner across HR, IT, and platform teams to ship practical solutions at speed, navigating internal complexity and stakeholder needs.
• Mentor and Grow: Raise the bar for the team by mentoring developers and leading the adoption of AI-powered developer tools to improve delivery speed and quality.
