Software Engineer - Denmark Pool

~~ ~~ ~~

Location : Aarhus, Denmark This posting is specifically for local candidates based in or able to attend in-person networking in Denmark. If you are currently residing abroad and are looking for international opportunities, please check out our other open positions on our website. At Uber, we don't just move people; we move the world. But before a car arrives or a meal is delivered, millions of lines of code have to execute in milliseconds. Our Aarhus Engineering Hub is the engine room for some of Uber's most critical global systems. We are looking to connect with Backend Software Engineers who want to build the future of Infrastructure/Platform and Catalog at a scale few companies on earth ever reach.

By joining our Aarhus Talent Pool, you're putting yourself on the radar for our two most impactful engineering pillars in Denmark: •

You'll build the \"foundations of the house.\" This team ensures that Uber's global fleet of services is reliable, scalable, and lightning-fast. If you enjoy deep-diving into distributed systems, high-availability architecture, and cloud-native tech, this is your playground. •

Uber's Catalog is the world's most complex digital inventory. We manage millions of items across thousands of cities for Uber Eats and beyond. You'll solve \"impossible\" problems related to data consistency, searchability, and real-time updates at a massive scale.

We value engineering craft over specific buzzwords, but you'll feel right at home if you have: •

This is the most important aspect. You have a deep passion for engineering excellence and a strong internal drive to do outstanding work. You naturally seek out challenging problems, learn quickly, and care deeply about craft and execution-consistently pushing for better solutions, systems, and outcomes while thriving in an environment with high autonomy. •

You understand how to build systems that don't break when millions of people use them simultaneously. •

Our primary languages are Go and Java, but we care more about your ability to pick the right tool for the job. •

You don't just write code; you think about observability, latency, and how your service behaves at 100x its current load. •

You thrive in a culture of peer reviews, architectural discussions, and shared ownership. This pipeline is intended for candidates with approximately

of relevant industry experience after completing their education. Alternatively a PhD degree. The role level corresponds to an L4 position - Software Engineer 2.

Uber Aarhus isn't just a satellite office; it's an engineering powerhouse with a \"start-up\" soul and \"Big Tech\" impact. •

Your code affects how people move in 10,000+ cities. •

A tight-knit team in the heart of Jutland, where we value work-life balance and technical excellence. •

We invest heavily in our engineers. Whether you want to be a Staff Engineer or an Engineering Manager, the path is yours to build.

•

Credits to use on Uber Rides and Uber Eats every month. •

Opportunity to be awarded stock options (RSUs) to ensure you own a piece of the mission you're building. •

Frequent local social events and office clubs (chess, board games, running, CrossFit, creative clubs, and more). •

We host regular local tech meetups to stay connected with the Aarhus engineering scene, and give our engineers the opportunity to sometimes share what they're working on with the community. •

Global support programs for mental health, wellness, and family planning/fertility. •

Generous, gender-neutral parental leave to support your life outside of work. •

Work in a center of technical excellence featuring catered lunches and top-tier collaboration spaces.
