   I work on pricing and marketplace systems that power Uber’s global products, with a focus on driving technical direction and delivering scalable solutions across complex, multi-team environments.My work spans the evolution of Uber’s fares and pricing infrastructure — from improving auditability and transparency during IPO readiness to shaping newer platform initiatives across pricing, routing, and marketplace systems.In the past 1.5+ years, I’ve been focused on High Capacity Vehicles (HCV) and route-based products, where I’ve contributed to and driven initiatives across pricing, scheduling, and booking systems. This includes designing systems that support dynamic pricing, improve latency, and enable new product capabilities at scale.Key areas of impact: • Technical leadership across systems: driving design and implementation of pricing and marketplace solutions that span multiple teams and services • Cross-functional execution: aligning engineering, product, and operations teams to deliver complex initiatives end-to-end • System design & architecture: authoring and reviewing designs (ERDs) that shape how pricing systems evolve across the platform • Platform evolution: contributing to foundational efforts such as Quark and pricing infrastructure improvements • Performance & scalability: identifying and driving improvements in latency, system efficiency, and infrastructure reliability • Domain ownership: acting as a subject matter expert in pricing systems and supporting critical initiatives across teamsI’m frequently involved in high-impact or ambiguous problem spaces where success requires both deep system understanding and the ability to drive alignment across teams.
