At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.

As a Senior Data Engineer on the Mapping team, you will collaborate with our world-class team of engineers, product managers, and scientists to grow and improve the quality of recommended routes and accuracy of our travel time estimations. You will lead the architecture and long-term technical direction of our offline experimentation tooling and route simulation services — the systems that let Lyft test routing changes safely before they reach production. You'll also build scalable data pipelines for experimentation, analytics, and machine learning models, along with the data governance and observability systems that keep them trustworthy. Your work will enable integration with partner teams and allow stakeholders across Engineering, Data Science, and Product to make data-informed decisions that directly impact Lyft’s growth and profitability.

Our technology stack is based on the latest technologies such as AWS, Databricks, Kubernetes and Airflow. You will work with incredibly passionate and talented colleagues from software engineering, machine learning and data science on projects that directly impact millions of riders and drivers.
