Job description

This is a platform engineering role on the Hybrid Mobile Experience (HMXP) team in Amsterdam, focused on building the global foundation that powers critical features across Uber Rides and Uber Eats. You'll solve complex engineering challenges related to high-speed, server-driven UI (SDUI) delivery and web view architecture , directly enabling product teams to ship features faster to millions of users around the world every day.

You will operate at the intersection of our massive distributed systems and the end-user mobile experience, navigating technical complexity and ambiguity to drive measurable business outcomes. If you thrive on grit , take ownership of your work end-to-end, and are motivated by delivering tangible, real-world impact by blurring the lines between native and web content , you'll accelerate your expertise here.

What you'll do

  • Architect the iOS-side components and core frameworks for integrating web views and our global server-driven UI solution, ensuring seamless cross-platform functionality and performance at Uber's scale.
  • Collaborate with engineers across major business lines, including Uber Eats , Rides , and FinTech , to define mobile APIs and accelerate the pace of feature delivery.
  • Own the full development lifecycle , from technical design and feature implementation in Swift through automated testing, deployment, and post-production monitoring.
  • Tackle performance constraints related to app launch, navigation, and runtime overhead, delivering continuous, measurable improvements to the end-user experience.
  • Contribute to on-call rotations to monitor, debug, and resolve high-impact production incidents , applying urgency and sound judgment when performance issues arise.
  • Identify and reduce technical debt , continually raising the bar for code health, engineering best practices, and the long-term maintainability of the mobile platform.

Requirements

Do you have experience in iOS?, Do you have a Bachelor's degree?, * Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related technical field.

  • 3+ years of professional, full-time iOS software engineering experience.
  • 3+ years of practical experience programming with Swift and/or Objective-C.
  • Demonstrated experience designing or integrating mobile components with large-scale, distributed backend systems .
  • Proven capacity to ship features to an app used by X+ million daily active users.

Preferred qualifications

  • Experience or deep familiarity with server-driven UI, web views, or declarative rendering frameworks.
  • Demonstrated ability to function as an independent owner , consistently driving complex, ambiguous projects to completion with minimal guidance.
  • Experience working in an A/B testing and experimentation environment to drive data-informed decisions.
  • Strong capacity for systems thinking , specifically anticipating technical dependencies and advocating for platform improvements that deliver long-term value.
  • Experience contributing to engineering culture , such as mentoring junior developers or championing new development best practices.
