Hey guys, I just got an offer (L4 software engineer) in the marketplace driver team. No numbers yet. 2 YOE. Marketplace is responsible for matching riders and drivers, trip routing, and trip pricing. I have heard generally good things about marketplace so far. Especially Uber people: Are there any teams specifically within marketplace that you would avoid? What is the technical and business reputation of marketplace within Uber? What about career growth opps, WLB, and technical challenges? I am wrapping up with a few FAANG but strongly considering Uber.
Is it the team responsible for drivers ratings/profiles?
Marketplace manages matching riders to drivers, trip routing, and pricing. I updated the post so this is clear to people not familiar
Not as good as eats
I am surprised to hear people say this. Why? Eats is growing faster? Any other reason?
Less tech debt in eats... But take marketplace. They are baller.
It’s by far the most talented and most high performing team here. But be ready to work long hours and bust your ass!
Wow , even compared with self driving division?
ATG gets a very bad reputation at Uber mostly because they didn’t produce top notch product. But marketplace drives the core of the product so has got to be top notch!
Take the offer. PM me for additional info.
Hey can I DM? Got an offer for Uber Marketplace and wanted to know if it's still good.
Can you tell me more about the interview process? And was it mostly Leetcode?
Phone screen, onsite with 5 interviews, 1 manager work style, 1 sys design, 1 past project, 2 leetcode mediums.
Marketplace has a great reputation within the company. Big technical challenges and growth opps.
