Product Manager, Trip Quality Data & Modeling

The Community You Will Join:

Our Product Managers imagine the ideal experience for our community and work backwards, creating innovative products that delight our guests and hosts. They deeply understand the needs of our users and translate these into a strategy that combines strong product intuition with research. They partner with talented cross-functional team members across engineering, design, operations, data science, and more, leading teams to execute a shared vision. They are incredibly detail-oriented and hands on.

The Difference You Will Make:

As a Product Manager in Airbnb’s Quality organization, you’ll work at the intersection of backend data, AI/ML modeling, and user experience to support the development of product features for both guests and hosts, directly impacting the quality of trips across the marketplace.

You will be responsible for prioritizing the roadmap based on expected impact and strategic relevance, while ensuring consistency in cross-company data models, spotting opportunities to enhance and connect the dots between different use cases for the same sets of information, and more.

• Craft the product narrative that inspires teams, leadership, and the company to support your products and business outcomes.
• Build deep expertise on the subject matter both through user research, marketplace data, and an understanding of the competitive landscape.
• Efficiently execute to ship updates and deliver impact for our business and customers.
• Build alignment across product teams (Tech, Design), cross-functional partners (Global Operations, Customer SUpport, Trust, etc.) and Leadership/Executive team.
• Make judgements and prioritization decisions that are in the best interests of our customers.

Your Expertise:

• Experience creating product messaging and delivering to customers.

• Entrepreneurial track record of taking an idea to reality.
