#uber peeps: saw this role (https://www.uber.com/en-CA/careers/list/43708/) and was curious to hear about the “expansion team”. What do they actually do, what areas of the product do they actually own?
They expand into cities that they were not in previously. Should be pretty obvious. Sounds like you’re not qualified, though.
Brutal 😂
Grocery and a couple of other new food delivery/ordering biz models
So are they basically spinning up new business units as opposed to making Eats available in more areas across cities or acquiring new restaurants?
Definitely for expansion to more cities. We want to create more efficient operating processes to expand faster and faster.
None of the above comments are correct (including the ones made by other Uber employees) — they work on cross-cutting business initiatives that span all sides of the marketplace and “expand” the overall pie of food delivery. Feel free to message me if you’d like more context.
Food delivery.
