Top SchoolRyan Kim is a technical program management leader with a decade of experience orchestrating complex programs in transportation, autonomous vehicles, and marketplace products from San Francisco. As Manager of Technical Program Management at Uber, he’s led cross-functional efforts across autonomous mobility, delivery marketplace experiments, membership and consumer engagement, and AV partner integration, blending product strategy with operational rigor. He pairs hands-on engineering instincts—illustrated by substantive backend contributions to the Pebble key-value store (iterator enhancements, dynamic bounds, and compaction improvements)—with program-level execution. That combination helps him translate low-level technical trade-offs into reliable delivery plans and measurable business outcomes. His background spans motorsports and automotive brand roles, giving him a practical systems mindset and a knack for coordinating hardware-software workflows.
