About The Role
Uber is seeking a Product Developer to lead the development of our charging and maintenance infrastructure for autonomous vehicles. This role will focus on site acquisition for fast charging stations and maintenance depots in core city centers across the UK. From identifying and sourcing real estate opportunities to negotiating leases or purchase agreements and handing projects off to design and construction teams, the Product Developer will be responsible for driving projects from start to finish.
This is a cross-functional role that requires working closely with internal teams, including design, operations, legal, policy, and engineering, as well as external stakeholders such as landlords, utilities, city agencies, contractors, and AV Tech partners. The ideal candidate combines real estate, contract negotiation, and infrastructure development experience with strong organizational and communication skills.
