About The Role
At Uber, we reimagine the way the world moves for the better. Our Public Policy and Communications team plays a critical role in telling that story-working with policymakers, partners, and communities to shape policies that expand mobility and delivery opportunities across the United States.
We're excited to launch a pilot internship program designed for curious, thoughtful students interested in the intersection of policy, technology, and storytelling.
