Biography
- Ryan Graves was the first employee hired at ride-hailing service Uber in 2010.
- Graves was CEO for a brief period in 2010, then president and most recently SVP of Global Operations, working as a "resident entrepreneur and builder."
- He announced he was resigning as an Uber exec in August 2017, two months after cofounder Travis Kalanick was forced to resign as CEO.
- Graves left Uber's board in May 2019, a few weeks after its initial public offering; at the time he owned about 2% of the company's shares.
- Now, Graves runs private investment firm Saltwater, which acquires small, profitable companies.
- Graves got his job by tweeting at Uber cofounder Travis Kalanick: "here's a tip. email me :)" when Kalanick was looking for a product manager.
- Before Uber, Graves worked at GE and was an unpaid intern at Foursquare.
