The Growth team at Lyft is responsible for accelerating the growth of the business and for hitting our top business/company goals around financials, metrics and market share. The Rideshare Planning and Operations team is building automated tools to manage growth levers and these are quickly becoming complex to configure and deploy.

This role will sit in the Rideshare Planning and Operations team, responsible for understanding the health of our markets and driving strategies and execution for growth.
