Product Manager - Grocery Fulfillment
New York, New York
Employer: Uber
Industry: Product
Salary: $174000 per year
Job type: Full-Time
About the Role
As a Product Manager on the Uber Grocery Delivery Experience team, you'll play a key role in transforming Uber delivery into a flawless experience that lets customers get anything they want from local merchants. Customers demand that their orders arrive accurately, on-time, and with minimal intervention on their part. To accomplish this, you will define and execute the product strategy to optimally fulfill orders through matching optimizations, and make it right with customers when things go wrong. Today, we're focused on the grocery, convenience, alcohol and pharmacy sectors, but this team has broader ambitions to expand into plenty of other long-tail verticals in the future.
In this role, you will be working with a broad set of cross-functional stakeholders across operations, data science, design, engineering, marketing and more, to deliver a reliable and delightful experience to consumers and shoppers.
What the Candidate Will Do
The opportunities to evolve the delivery experience for new verticals are myriad and we are only just getting started. This is a representative sampling of the areas you might be tackling on the team:
- Decide how to optimally match customers with merchants and couriers so they they can be fulfilled with the highest reliability, speed and cost efficiency - starting with grocery and scaling to all verticals.
- Determine ways to redirect orders in the event of an issue, and make it right with the customer if an order doesn't go as planned.
- Be a thought leader for ways to ensure fulfillment success across all levers, from pricing and incentives to more efficient picking and packing.
- Collaborating with our regional operations and sales teams to deeply understand the market nuances and pain-points related to fulfillment - and then devising and executing product solutions to solve them
- Influencing the product roadmaps of many other teams across Uber that work to ensure a healthy marketplace
Basic Qualifications
- Minimum 3 years experience delivering successful and innovative products with your fingerprints all over them
- Technical savviness. Can manifest in different ways: a computer science undergraduate degree, hands-on software engineering experience, or experiences building complex software products side by side with engineers. Technical understanding must go from the highest abstractions down to the smallest details
- Attention to detail. The ability to obsess over every single part of the shopper experience
- Customer obsession. The ability to take on complex product challenges and find elegant, simplifying solutions to avoid making them our users and partner's problems
- Finger-tippiness with data. You find a way to get the data you need and whip it into an insightful story with no help. You know how to leverage this data to make decisions without getting stuck in analysis paralysis
- A "Driver" mindset. You are biased toward action, a great collaborator, a master disambiguator/simplifier, and constantly pushing toward clarity and delivery
- A high bar across the board - from your own contributions to the people you work with, to the products you work on
- A true passion for Uber's mission, our products, and the company's hybrid technology/operations nature
- A never-ending desire to grow and learn
Preferred Qualifications
- Fulfillment and/or Marketplace experience. You would have directly worked on fulfillment, logistics, delivery or other last mile problems, or have strong knowledge of how marketplaces (where multiple parties transact on a platform you've had a hand in building) work
- Experience building products from 0 to 1
- Experience in the grocery, retail, CPG or ecommerce industry
- Experience launching products side-by-side with data science teams
