About the role and team

Leading at Uber means setting direction in motion, not waiting for perfect conditions. As a Manager II of Applied Science for Safety, you will lead a global team of data and applied scientists dedicated to one of our most critical missions: ensuring the safety of every rider and earner on our platform. You will own the end-to-end science lifecycle for high-visibility projects—from deep-dive analysis and causal inference to the messier reality of deploying and monitoring models in a production environment at massive scale.

This role requires a leader who can navigate the tension between rapid product iteration and the rigorous scientific standards necessary for safety-critical systems. You will serve as a key thought partner to Core Services Product Managers and Engineers, translating complex technical insights into real-world impact. If you are a resilient, systems-oriented leader who thrives in high-stakes environments and is passionate about building a safer future for our global community, this is where you’ll grow.

What you’ll do

  • Lead and mentor a global team of scientists to deliver high-quality output that directly improves safety outcomes for all users on the Uber platform.
  • Own the full science lifecycle on high-visibility projects, navigating the ambiguity of experimental design, causal inference, and product iteration.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, and Operations teams to identify new safety opportunities and drive execution through technical leadership.
  • Build and scale robust modeling and monitoring systems, managing the trade-offs between speed of delivery and long-term system reliability.
  • Foster a culture of technical excellence and continuous learning, ensuring the team stays ahead of industry trends in risk and safety science.
  • Communicate complex scientific findings to non-technical stakeholders to influence product roadmaps and strategic business decisions.

Basic Qualifications

  • Ph.D., M.S., or Bachelor’s degree in Statistics, Economics, Mathematics, Operations Research, or other quantitative fields (or equivalent professional experience).
  • Minimum 7 years of industry experience in data science or applied analytics.
  • Minimum 3 years of experience directly managing a team of scientists, with a proven ability to define clear team structures and hire the right skills.
  • Experience actively shaping roadmaps and forming a long-term vision for a scientific organization.
  • Proven track record of executing complicated projects and landing impact felt at the organizational level
  • Demonstrated ability to hold an entire organization accountable for execution and maintaining a high bar for performance.
  • Proficiency in Python or R for large-scale data manipulation and modeling.
  • Experience in experimental design, causal analysis, and the development of machine learning models.

Preferred Qualifications

  • 9+ years of industry experience as an Applied or Data Scientist
  • Specialized background or domain expertise in safety, risk management, or fraud detection.
  • Experience leading global teams across multiple time zones in a fast-paced technology environment.
  • Strong systems thinking approach to solving architectural gaps and reducing technical debt across teams.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
