Sr Staff Engineer - Programming Systems
San Francisco, California
Employer: Uber
Industry: Engineering
Salary: $252000 per year
Job type: Full-Time
About the Role
At Uber's Programming Systems Group (PSG), we develop programming language (PL) techniques to enhance developer productivity and make our systems efficient and reliable. We leverage novel work on compiler optimizations, static and dynamic program analysis, performance tooling and optimizations, and generative AI as applied to developer tooling.
PSG members focus on solving real problems at scale for Uber developers across all languages and platforms. The team has a track record of innovative PL research (publications in PLDI, OOPSLA, ICSE, FSE, ASPLOS, CGO) and cutting-edge industry-standard open-source tools.
What You'll do
You will help delight our engineering teams, and redefine the standard for developer tooling through innovative work in compilers and program analysis. This includes (but is not limited to):
- Static analyzers / pluggable type systems
- Dynamic analysis tools (e.g., for concurrency bug detection)
- GenAI-powered and rules-based program repair and code refactoring
- Profile-guided compiler optimizations
- Performance measurement, analysis, and optimization tools
\\-\\-\\-\\- Basic Qualifications ----
- Ph.D. in Computer Science or a related discipline, or equivalent experience.
- 6+ years of professional software development experience, including some experience as a tech lead for multiple areas
- Knowledge of different compilation steps (and ability to troubleshoot) in languages such as Go, C, C++, or Java
Note that up to 3 years of the total required software engineering experience may have been gained through education and full-time work experience, additional training, coursework, research, or similar (OR some combination of these). The years of specialized experience are not necessarily in addition to the years of Education & full-time work experience indicated.
\\-\\-\\-\\- Preferred Qualifications ----
- Experience leveraging Generative AI and Machine Learning infrastructure to concretely impact engineering productivity
- Experience building and iterating on code review (phabricator, GitHub), automation test infrastructure (unit, integration, E2E), and build systems (Bazel / buck)

- Linux and Kubernetes system knowledge
