Uber plans to double the size of its Toronto technical team
Before 2021 is over, Uber plans to double the size of its technical team in Toronto. The ride-hailing and food delivery company plans to hire around 60 people for its engineering, data science, design, and product management teams. There will also be two new divisions coming to Canada—one will focus on core rider experience and the other on memberships.
The former will manage, improve, and develop products and infrastructure needed for the Uber app to work and be more reliable for riders. The latter will focus on growing Uber's members by looking for ways to offer new partnerships, integrations, and exclusive deals. This hiring comes after Uber laid off over 3,000 of its global staff (around 14%) because demand plummeted during the COVID-19 pandemic.
