About the Role
The Container Platform team's mission is to build the next generation of Uber's container orchestration platform on Kubernetes that is secure, reliable, scalable, and highly efficient. At Uber we have a complex infrastructure spanning both on-prem data centers and cloud. It supports a diverse variety of workloads (stateless, batch, streaming), each different in its characteristics and requirements.
We build solutions to enable user applications/jobs to be deployed anywhere in the world with the touch of a button. We build abstractions so that Uber developers do not have to care about infrastructure and infrastructure just works for every application type. We actively work with the open-source community including Kubernetes and contribute back. We are at the cutting edge of technology and the team regularly presents at industry conferences.
Here are some KubeCon sessions (2024 session + video , 2023 session1 , session2 ) where we have talked about our team's work.
We are looking for a strong engineer to drive and contribute to the technical roadmap \& delivery of our Container Platform.
