About the role
You will decide what the engineering world knows about Airbnb. We ask that you only reach out to us if you are a candidate whose disability prevents you from being able to complete our online application. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Our engineers solve hard problems at scale across infrastructure, data, and applied AI — and they write about that work well. Almost none of the engineers we'd most like to hire have ever seen it
- Steward our open source presence. Make sure what Airbnb claims publicly is accurate and actually maintained, and that the projects carrying our name reflect how we want to be seen
- Substantial experience in technical content, developer relations, engineering communications or technical editorial — including time spent working directly with engineers, not adjacent to them
- Influence without authority. Nothing you need is owned by you. You've built systems and incentives that got busy senior people to produce, rather than relying on persistence
- Program discipline. You've owned events, budgets and vendors end to end, and you're comfortable with the unglamorous half of the job
- Measurement literacy. You connect brand work to funnel outcomes, and you're straight about the limits of attribution rather than reaching for impressions

Airbnb’s mission is to create a world where people can Belong Anywhere. As we work to achieve that mission, our cross functional Tech Operations and Programs team helps enable Tech organizations to execute and deliver on high impact programs and initiatives.

- You'll change that, and the change is measurable. A year in, senior candidates should arrive already able to describe our technical work accurately, because they found it before we found them. Our engineers should be recognised names in their fields rather than anonymous authors. Airbnb should be the source...
