We believe in creating an inclusive environment where everyone is welcome, regardless of race, colour, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, or disability.

Our ultimate goal is to make cities for people, not cars, and we need your help to achieve this mission!

About The Role

In this role, you will play a critical part in shaping and executing the product strategy to deliver exceptional safety and security value to both our drivers and riders. You will work closely with cross-functional teams, including Product Designers, Engineers, Product Specialists, and Data Analysts, to ensure that the Rides Safety product team is able to craft and execute a winning strategy that addresses potential risks and meets the evolving safety needs of our users and regulators.

Main tasks and responsibilities:

• Define and own the long-term safety product vision and roadmap, ensuring alignment with business priorities, regulatory requirements, and user safety needs.
• Lead continuous discovery and analysis of safety risks, user behaviours, and market trends to inform product decisions and strengthen platform safety.
• Drive cross-functional delivery of safety features by collaborating closely with Engineering, Design, Legal, Public Policy, and Data teams from concept to launch.
• Use quantitative and qualitative insights to prioritise safety initiatives, set measurable success metrics, and guide key trade-off decisions across the portfolio.
• Optimise global safety solutions by tailoring configurations for local market needs while maintaining centralised standards, governance, and scalability.
• Monitor and improve safety feature performance post-launch, creating clear documentation and driving ongoing enhancements to minimise risk and elevate user trust.
  
  
  

About you:

• You have 3+ years of experience in product development or a related field, ideally within tech or mobility, and you’re comfortable building products in fast-paced, agile environments.
• You bring strong analytical depth, using data, risk metrics, and user insights to drive decisions and shape impactful safety solutions.
• You communicate clearly and confidently, guiding cross-functional teams and navigating sensitive or high-pressure situations such as incidents or crisis scenarios.
• You are proficient with modern product and data tools (JIRA, Confluence, ProductBoard, SQL, Excel, Tableau) and use them to bring structure, clarity, and measurable progress to your work. You’re passionate about mobility and user safety, with a solid understanding of driver and rider needs and the broader risk landscape.
• You are organised, detail-driven, and proactive, able to balance multiple priorities while steadily pushing forward on complex safety challenges.
