San Francisco, California, United States Uber Full time

About the Role

Uber ignites opportunity and changes the way the world moves for the better. We design for users around the world of all backgrounds and abilities. Our Product Equity team weaves equity into how our customers go and get anything by building inclusive experiences that prioritize the perspectives and needs of historically and systemically excluded communities.

We are seeking an experienced and passionate Senior Designer to work with our dedicated, cross-functional team of engineers, product managers, designers, and researchers. The ideal person will excel in driving complex projects, even with little definition. With deep product knowledge, you can quickly understand project requirements and help our team navigate trade-offs, uncover insights, manage stakeholder relationships, and consistently deliver customer value. Your deep understanding of design systems, technical feasibility, and efficient design processes will set a high-quality standard for our team and organization.

You will work closely with other teams across the company to ensure we holistically consider the landscape of Diversity, Social Justice, Product Equity, and Accessibility. You'll be a key partner in how we go above and beyond the Inclusive Design component of the 14 commitments we made in 2020 to eliminate racism and disproportionate impacts concerning underrepresented groups across the Uber platform.

What You Will Do

Scope: Work on projects of all sizes, from problems that are well-known to those more complex and conceptual, while leading a design roadmap in your area.

Process: Build a deep understanding of the historically and systemically excluded customers you are designing for through data and research. Lead the end-to-end design process, solicit and incorporate feedback from experts, translate your designs to build with engineers, and work flexibly with a variety of teams. Design at all levels of fidelity and practice good judgment on making tradeoffs.

Craft: Deliver designs that are innovative and elegant, buildable and scalable, and are thoroughly documented. Have a strong understanding of business, data, and engineering requirements, and create experiences that deliver customer value.

Efficiency: Prioritize and manage your time efficiently, operate with high autonomy, and easily adapt to challenges.

Communication and partnership: Communicate with clarity and persuasiveness, and effectively present your work and rationale to stakeholders at all levels. Proactively collaborate with your team, manager, and cross-functional partners. Facilitate design sessions, and collaborate with other designers. Maintain honest and trusting relationships with your team.
