**About the Role** The Unified Configuration System team enables Uber’s engineers and operators to manage and configure their fleet-wide services safely and efficiently on a large scale. We place extra emphasis on safe and gradual configuration rollout, ensuring proper monitoring and automatic rollback if issues are detected. The team provides a unified and scalable configuration experience across all of Uber’s workloads, data centers, and cloud vendors. We closely collaborate with many product and platform teams, also supporting custom-tailored configuration solutions that serve specific business needs. **What the Candidate Will Do** As a Frontend Engineer on our team, you'll play a key role in our mission. We use a modern tech stack, including React, TypeScript, and GraphQL for our frontend, while our backend is built in Go. We take pride in writing clean code with solid unit and integration test coverage. We use Jest and RTL for unit testing, and Playwright for integration tests. All code changes go through peer review to ensure quality and knowledge sharing within the team. Upon joining, your responsibilities will include: - Working with teams across Uber to identify projects and help define the future of configuration management from both a technical and product perspective. - Designing, implementing, and delivering reliable, well-tested features. - Taking an active part in code change peer reviews to ensure quality and knowledge sharing across the team. - Leveraging data, metrics, and engaging with users to identify and solve challenges, and inform decisions. - Contributing to engineering culture in terms of quality, monitoring, and on-call practices. - Aligning directly with our users to ensure their needs are met so they can stay productive and happy while running Uber’s business. **Basic Qualifications** To excel as a Frontend Engineer in this role, you should have: - 5+ years of experience in frontend or full-stack development. - A degree in computer science/engineering or equivalent practical experience. - Strong coding and software design skills. - A passion for product design and user experiences. - Experience with React and TypeScript or similar technologies. - The ability to drive complex projects from concept to launch and beyond. - Good verbal and written communication skills, with experience writing design documents, documentation, post mortems, etc. We welcome people from all backgrounds who seek the opportunity to help build a future where everyone and everything can move independently. If you have the curiosity, passion, and collaborative spirit, work with us, and let’s move the world forward, together. Offices continue to be central to collaboration and Uber’s cultural identity.
