About the role
The Social team is making Airbnb a place where you travel with, and because of, the people you know. Our strategy has three parts: scaling the social graph, building social features that make Airbnb fun and useful for you and your friends, and creating social experiences that help people form new relationships and strengthen existing ones in real life. Each part has its own dedicated pod of engineers, designers, and program partners. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Work backwards from the guest: write crisp briefs and requirements for new features, each grounded in a real guest need and a clear definition of success
- Prototype with AI first: build working prototypes yourself to explore ideas, test them with guests, and align the team in days rather than weeks
- Drive execution with engineering, design, data science, and program management, from concept through launch and iteration, often with several features in flight at once
- Go deep with the team on the details: review builds, test flows yourself, and chase down the edge cases that decide whether a feature delivers for guests
- Shape how connections are integrated across the guest journey, from search and booking to Trips, so planning and traveling with people you know feels natural
- Build shareable, delightful moments like the travel map that bring new people to Airbnb and grow the social graph
More about this role
Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way.
Our Product Marketing Managers start with the guest and work backwards, turning product thinking, data, and research into strategy. They own outcomes end to end, lead cross-functional teams across engineering, design, data science, and program management, and stay close enough to the details to know when something is off.
