Background
|
On a snowy Paris evening in 2008, Travis Kalanick and Garrett Camp had trouble hailing a cab. So they came up with a simple idea—tap a button, get a ride.
Now, whether it’s a ride, a sandwich, or a package, we use technology to give people what they want, when they want it. For the women and men who drive with Uber, their app represents a flexible new way to earn money. For cities, they help strengthen local economies, improve access to transportation, and make streets safer. When you make transportation as reliable as running water, everyone benefits. |
Roles & Responsibilites
|
Uber has already found strong product/market fit with its world-changing service. But it is absolutely day one for them. They’re seeking a small group of unbelievably talented and thoughtful designers to define and execute against a giant vision that builds upon what Uber has brought to the world so far.
If you have the right stuff to join Uber, you’ll work among some of the best designers and marketing managers in a fast-paced, rapidly growing, hybrid (technology/operations) environment. Uber is highly user-centric and deeply believes it can innovate its way out of any box. The role demands great execution, bold innovation, obsession with quality, fearlessness and optimism to be inspired by the unknown and never settle, solving problems with creativity while keeping the user in mind and ambition to take projects to the finish line. |

You constantly strive to optimize your workflow, increase your output, and become a more efficient and effective production artist. The details matter to you. You’ve spent your career slaving over precise positioning and color consistency. You notice an off-centered layout before anyone else in the room. You are a walking encyclopedia of file formats, color spaces, and compression techniques and possess nuanced views on which works best in each situation. You can localize and customize. You’ve worked with creative that requires global-scale localization. You enjoy the challenge of concepts that require dynamic text and variable imagery. With the right templates, you can turn one design into thousands of unique assets. You’re seasoned in digital and analog.
