You will navigate constant trade-offs between short-term growth and long-term marketplace sustainability, demanding a deep trip obsessed mindset to simplify immense complexity. If you are ready to set the technical direction for one of Uber's most critical and high-impact product areas, this is where you will grow with the challenge.

What You’ll Do

  • Define the long-term science roadmap for Driver Pricing, matching, and Incentives, translating ambiguous business problems into rigorous, implementable economic and machine learning solutions that drive step-change improvements.
  • Design and lead the implementation of complex causal inference and large-scale experimentation (A/B testing) frameworks to measure the true, long-term impact of pricing and incentive policy changes on both driver behavior and overall marketplace health.
  • Drive excellence and rigor in science methodologies, leveraging techniques such as machine learning, experimentation, causal inference, time series analysis, and natural language processing to address complex marketplace challenges.
  • Build critical, cross-functional alignment with senior Product, Engineering, and Operations leaders, using deep data-driven narratives to advocate for, influence the roadmap of, and secure resources for multi-quarter, multi-team initiatives.
  • Act as the organization's technical authority on marketplace dynamics, providing authoritative guidance on model architecture, elevating the science bar across the domain, and mentoring Staff and Senior Data Scientists.
  • Unblock critical, large-scale system bottlenecks by investigating and solving data quality, model drift, and real-time performance issues, often requiring deep dives into engineering architecture and production systems.

How you’ll spend your time

  • 40% Strategic Research & Model Design (Deep work, defining technical direction)
  • 30% Cross-functional Leadership & Alignment (Stakeholder reviews, presenting and influencing)
  • 20% Mentorship & Technical Review (Design reviews, guiding team members)
  • 10% Production Debugging & Incident Response (Unblocking major, high-stakes issues)

What You’ll Need

  • 15+ years of demonstrable experience as an Individual Contributor (IC) in a Data Science, Applied Science, or Quantitative Research role at a high-scale technology company.
  • Ph.D. degree in a quantitative field such as Computer Science, Operation Research, Math, Statistics, or Economics; OR 18+ years of relevant experience in lieu of a Ph.D.
  • 8+ years of experience directly designing, deploying, and owning real-time machine learning or economic policy systems that govern multi-sided marketplaces or high-volume transactional platforms.
  • Demonstrated proficiency in advanced causal inference, large-scale experimentation design (A/B testing), and model development using Python, R, and advanced SQL.

Bonus Points If

  • Proven ability to mentor senior and staff-level Scientists, raising the overall technical capability and systems thinking rigor across multiple teams, even without direct reporting lines.
  • Deep practical experience navigating technical debt and legacy systems while driving simultaneous, net-new development in a fast-paced environment, reflecting high adaptability.
  • Exceptional track record of influencing executive-level product and business leaders through clear, concise, and non-jargon-heavy storytelling, demonstrating strong person orientation/interpersonal influence.
  • Experience with advanced economic modeling, optimization techniques (e.g., matching, routing), or other Operations Research techniques applied to real-world, high-stakes environments.

About the Team

The Uber Marketplace is designed to move riders & drivers efficiently from where they are to where they want to go. Every dollar that is transacted in the Uber Marketplace (driver forecasting, dynamic pricing fares, matching driver/rider pricing, and overall marketplace health) is informed and influenced by data – and our Data Science team understands, analyzes, and helps design the algorithms that enable millions of earners and consumers to ride, deliver, eat, and move daily.

Uber operates in a constantly-evolving and competitive environment, across a diverse set of markets and product categories. Assessing the success or failure of a product or investment strategy depends on deeply understanding this context and quantifying the impact with thoughtfully-defined success metrics.

About the Role

As AI systems—particularly LLMs and agentic AI—become core to our products and internal platforms, understanding how these systems fail is just as important as improving their performance. We are looking for a Senior Applied Scientist to join our AI Red Teaming efforts and focus on adversarial evaluation, failure analysis, and risk discovery in AI models and AI agents.

In this role, you will systematically probe AI systems to uncover unsafe, unintended, or harmful behaviors, including prompt injection, jailbreaks, behavioral drift, tool misuse, and context or memory poisoning. You will design experiments, build evaluation frameworks, and analyze outcomes to surface risks that traditional ML metrics do not capture.

This role is ideal for a data scientist who enjoys working at the edge of model behavior, cares deeply about safety and robustness, and wants to apply scientific rigor to securing real-world AI systems.

What the Candidate Will Need / Bonus Points

---- What the Candidate Will Do ----

  1. Design and execute AI red-teaming experiments against LLMs and AI agents to identify: prompt injection (direct & indirect), jailbreaking and policy bypass, model and tool poisoning, context and memory poisoning, behavioral drift and unsafe autonomy
  2. Develop adversarial datasets, probes, and test harnesses to systematically evaluate model and agent behavior under attack.
  3. Define and track AI risk metrics beyond accuracy (e.g., failure rates, drift indicators, unsafe action likelihood, confidence miscalibration).
  4. Analyze agent workflows and decision traces to understand how failures emerge across multi-step reasoning and tool use.\
  5. Collaborate with security engineers and AI platform teams to translate findings into guardrails, mitigations, and design improvements.
  6. Build reusable evaluation pipelines to support continuous red teaming and regression testing as models and agents evolve.

---- Basic Qualifications ----

  1. 5+ years of experience as a Data Scientist, Applied Scientist, or ML Scientist.
  2. Hands-on experience working with LLMs or generative AI systems.
  3. Direct experience with AI red teaming, model safety, or adversarial evaluation.
  4. Direct experience with prompt injection, jailbreaks, and LLM failure modes.
  5. Strong background in experimental design, evaluation, and statistical analysis.
  6. Experience analyzing complex model behavior and failure cases beyond standard metrics.
  7. Proficiency in Python and common DS/ML tooling.

---- Preferred Qualifications ----

  1. Experience evaluating agentic systems, including tool use, memory, or multi-step workflows.
  2. Knowledge of GenAI architectures (transformers, embeddings, RAG, agent frameworks).
  3. Experience building custom evaluation datasets or simulation environments.
  4. Background or strong interest in security, privacy, or trust & safety.
  5. Familiarity with AI evaluation tools (e.g., custom judges, LLM-as-judge, simulation frameworks).

For New York, NY-based roles: The base salary range for this role is USD$190,000 per year - USD$211,000 per year.
