That\u2019s why companies like <a href=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/learn-mobile-app-development\/\">Uber<\/a> are more successful than ever. With the ability to tap a button on our phones and instantly have transportation, Uber has changed the way humans travel and connect with others. Uber is one of the major tech giants, employing over 16,000 people worldwide. In our society, data is all around us. There are millions of lines of data throughout the web that have yet to see the light of day. That is precisely where data scientists come in. With a user base as large as Uber\u2019s (over 75 million), it\u2019s easy to see why data scientists are in high demand for the company.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is a Data Scientist?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/man-791049_960_720.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4022\"\/><figcaption> Data scientists do a variety of things in their job roles!&nbsp;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A data scientist is someone who must interpret and extract meaning from complex data. This data could include usage statistics from websites and machine data. As major tech companies collect terabytes of data daily, this is a highly important role. Job tasks usually include collecting large amounts of data, cleaning data to ensure accuracy, interpreting data, determining correct data variables, identifying problems and solutions, communicating with management and stockholders, and more!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Data Scientist Salary at Uber<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"733\" src=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/image-1.jpg\" alt=\"Uber Driver in car\" class=\"wp-image-4273\"\/><figcaption>Uber data scientists earn impressive salaries!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Data scientists at Uber earn an average of $206,360, with the bottom 25th percentile earning $165,740 and the top 75th percentile earning $238,098. The highest recorded data scientist\u2019s income at Uber is $281,344 per year. The median salary at Uber is over $89,000 more than the national data scientist average salary of $117,000 per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking further at the breakdown of Uber\u2019s data scientist median salary, we see a base salary of $120,290, with an additional $66,634 in equity, $19,435 in annual bonuses, and a signing bonus of $11,104.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Perks of Working at Uber<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Employees enjoy a $200 credit per month to use for Uber and Uber Eats services. Additional perks include free food, gym access, and phone plans.&nbsp; Another major bonus is that work hours are flexible with many teams, allowing employees to work from home one day a week. For San Francisco workers, specifically, one of the major perks is simply location. San Francisco is currently ranked the number one place to live for data scientists, as the bayside city boasts the <a href=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/data-scientist-salary-san-francisco\/\">highest median salary for a data scientist in the US!&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Become a Data Scientist<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" src=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/photo-1434626881859-194d67b2b86f.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4020\"\/><figcaption>Data science is currently one of the most in demand fields in tech!&nbsp;<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>To <a href=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/becoming-a-data-scientist\/\"><a href=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/becoming-a-data-scientist\/\">become a data scientist<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/becoming-a-data-scientist\/\">t<\/a> at Uber, some of the most sought after skills include Python, R, data analysis, SQL, machine learning, and statistics..
