Senior Machine Learning Engineer
Build ML models for pricing, matching, and demand across the Uber Freight marketplace.
Uber Freight Marketplace is building the next generation of logistics technology by leveraging Uber's proven marketplace playbook to freight. As part of a small, high-impact team, you'll help bring expertise from Uber's mobility and delivery marketplaces into a rapidly evolving industry, developing pricing, matching, recommendation, and optimization systems that will disrupt the freight industry ($1T TAM). Uber Freight is at a very early stage, with just 0.4% of the pie now, and it's a rare opportunity to solve challenging marketplace problems with AI/ML and marketplace optimization while shaping how the freight industry transforms.
We are looking for a highly motivated Machine Learning Engineer to join Uber's Marketplace team to modernize the Uber Freight marketplace. It is a fascinating area with challenges in predictive modeling, causal inference, constrained optimization, reinforcement learning, marketplace design, etc.
What You'll Do
- End-to-end ownership for the ML models in the Uber Freight marketplace (cost prediction, booking probability, demand elasticity, etc.).
- While your job is mostly about model development, you will work with backend engineers together to put them in production and make sure they work as expected.
Basic Qualifications
- 4+ years of experience developing ML models to solve business problems.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related fields.
- Familiar with modern AI/ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch).
Preferred Qualifications
- Product experience; adaptive development of ML models to the business context is critical.
- Previous experience with state-of-the-art marketplace technology is preferred.
- Experience with causal inference and constrained optimization.
Base salary ranges: Chicago $182,000-$202,000; San Francisco / New York City / Seattle / Sunnyvale $202,000-$224,000.
