As a Senior Technical Program Manager in Uber's Financial Risk Management (FRM) Compliance Tech team, you will drive structure and coordination for large-scale, complex technology initiatives that modernize how Uber runs its most critical compliance and financial-risk programs - from controls automation and GRC tooling to the data and AI systems that power real-time risk intelligence. This role is about navigating the reality of transforming manual, judgment-heavy compliance work into automated, data-driven, AI-assisted workflows while the business moves at high velocity. You will be a strategic operator and cross-functional influencer, owning the end-to-end lifecycle of technical programs that span Engineering, Data/AI, Compliance and Finance partners. You will make data-driven decisions on prioritization, manage complex dependencies across teams and delivery partners, and directly impact the cost, quality, and auditability of Uber's control environment. We are looking for a professional who can solve architectural and process puzzles and elevate technical program management standards across a lean, high-leverage, globally distributed team. What you'll do * Own the end-to-end lifecycle of the multi-year Compliance Tech roadmap, coordinating delivery across three areas - tooling enablement, platform engineering, data, and risk intelligence & AI. * Lead complex technical programs from inception to delivery, resolving cross-team dependencies and evaluating risks in real time. * Partner with engineering and data/AI leads to conceptualize architectural solutions and translate compliance and product needs into detailed execution roadmaps and resource plans. * Drive execution velocity by identifying systemic bottlenecks, managing escalations, and removing obstacles across onshore/offshore teams and delivery pods. * Drive platform and tooling modernization - including migrations, parallel-run, and phased cutovers that de-risk delivery with no big-bang changes. * Stand up AI governance mechanics in partnership with Data/AI - evals, human-in-the-loop review, and model/change documentation aligned to recognized AI-governance standards. * Use a data-driven approach to define program KPIs, track progress, and give leadership a single, credible view of status, risk, and delivery. * Own program budgets and cost trade-offs - track spend, justify investment, and partner with Finance to keep the roadmap on plan and self-funding. * Surface overlooked control gaps and systemic risks others miss - decompose ambiguous, contested problems with facts and data to drive shared understanding and clear decisions. * Navigate high-stakes ambiguity by balancing priorities across diverse stakeholders, including leadership, technical teams, and compliance/audit partners. * Champion engineering and operational excellence - building the playbooks, runbooks, templates, and automation that let a lean team punch above its weight. ## Related Videos - [The user in the eye of the Cargo1492 storm](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/96-the-user-in-the-eye-of-the-cargo1492-storm) - [Improving quality with Agentic AI with Rovo Dev and Xray](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2005-improving-quality-with-agentic-ai-with-rovo-dev-and-xray) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [Data Science in Retail](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/586-data-science-in-retail) - [Crew Management System for Airlines: Plan duties for pilots & flight attendants worldwide](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1444-crew-management-system-for-airlines-plan-duties-for-pilots-flight-attendants-worldwide) - [Collaboration Quantified: Lessons from Open Source Developer Networks](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1422-collaboration-quantified-lessons-from-open-source-developer-networks) ## Related Articles - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [What is Agentic Programming and Why Should Developers Care?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/625-what-is-agentic-programming-and-why-should-developers-care) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Résumé-Driven Development: How IT trends affect the job market for software developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/59-resume-driven-development-how-it-trends-affect-the-job-market-for-software-developers)
