About the Role

We are looking for a Merchant Operation Specialist to serve as the strategic partner of our merchant ecosystem. In this role, your primary objective is to build a high-retention environment through data-driven insights and proactive operational programs. You will deep-dive into merchant selection analysis to ensure our platform offers the right mix for our customers, while simultaneously architecting robust churn prevention strategies. Beyond retention, you will take charge of scaling the adoption of Pickup service, ensuring it serves as a value-add that keeps our merchants engaged and successful on our platform.

Your Impact in Role

  1. Lead SMB Churn Prevention & Retention Strategy: Develop and manage data-driven initiatives to minimize churn among SMB merchants. You will use predictive modeling to identify at-risk partners and collaborate closely with Sales, Account Management, CommOps, and external agency to design effective save strategies and communication plans. Your goal is to conceptualize and implement scalable projects that address merchant pain points and improve long-term ecosystem stability.
  2. Drive Data-Led Selection Analysis: Act as the analytical lead for merchant selection health by building and maintaining the infrastructure needed for deep-dive insights. This includes creating and optimizing automated dashboards and SQL queries to monitor selection trends, providing the visibility required to make strategic decisions about our marketplace composition and quality.
  3. Scale Pickup Service Adoption & Operations: Own the Go-To-Market strategy to increase merchant adoption of the Pickup service. You will partner with Sales and Account Management teams to drive enrollment while leading cross-functional alignment with Product, Legal, and Consumer Ops to ensure the service scales efficiently and delivers maximum impact.

  1. Experience: 2+ years of professional experience in data-driven strategy, management consulting, or operational roles. Industry experience in eCommerce, B2C tech, Retail, or CPG is highly preferred.
  2. Analytical Rigor: Proven ability to deconstruct complex business problems and design data-backed solutions. You must be proficient in SQL and advanced Google Sheets/Excel for modeling and reporting.
  3. Stakeholder & Communication Excellence: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills in both English and Mandarin. You have a track record of influencing cross-functional and external partners and feel comfortable presenting strategies to large Sales and Account Management teams.
  4. Project Management & Execution: Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously. You can take a project from the concept phase through to enablement and final execution.
  5. Operational Grit: A can-do attitude with the willingness to dive into the details. You are a collaborative team player who balances high-level strategic thinking with the need to handle day-to-day operational tasks.

Preferred Qualifications

  1. Industry Expertise: Deep experience within the eCommerce or B2C internet space, specifically focusing on merchant lifecycle management, churn mitigation, or SMB retention programs.

About Company

Uber

We are Uber. The go-getters. The kind of people who are relentless about our mission to help people go anywhere and get anything and earn their way. Movement is what we power. It&#8217&#x3B;s our lifeblood. It runs through our veins. It&#8217&#x3B;s what gets us out of bed each morning. It pushes us to constantly reimagine how we can move better. For you. For all the places you want to go. For all the things you want to get. For all the ways you want to earn. Across the entire world. In real time. At the incredible speed of now.
The idea for Uber was born on a snowy night in Paris in 2008, and ever since then our DNA of reimagination and reinvention carries on. We&#8217&#x3B;ve grown into a global platform powering flexible earnings and the movement of people and things in ever expanding ways. We&#8217&#x3B;ve gone from connecting rides on 4 wheels to 2 wheels to 18-wheel freight deliveries. From takeout meals to daily essentials to prescription drugs to just about anything you need at any time and earning your way. From drivers with background checks to real-time verification, safety is a top priority every single day. At Uber, the pursuit of reimagination is never finished, never stops, and is always just beginning.
