Uber job listing hints at sharper focus on subscriptions for drivers

By Natalie Lung, Bloomberg

An Uber Technologies Inc. job posting suggests the rideshare company is stepping up efforts to test a subscription offering for more of its drivers around the world, following smaller upstarts that have found success with this alternative model.

The company is hiring for a New York-based product manager to “define and execute product strategies that create net-new subscription packages” for its drivers and couriers, according to a listing posted this week.
