About the role

Airbnb is seeking a Platform Manager to build and improve the internal tools and workflows that power Airbnb's Supply operations teams. These are the teams that vet, onboard, and support hosts at scale and the systems that support them are fragmented, manual, and difficult to measure. This role owns the tooling and workflow infrastructure that changes that: assessing current state, designing scalable replacements, and driving delivery through to adoption.

What they're looking for

  • Align vision, OKRs, strategy, and roadmap with senior leaders across Supply, Engineering, and Operations, present progress to leadership on an ongoing basis
  • Design AI-forward operational processes and determine necessity of human-in-the-loop across or within workflows including augmented decision making judgement
  • Decompose multidimensional product-to-ops problems define the operational requirements, and drive a coherent solution across many owning teams
  • Write exceptional product briefs that are specific, opinionated, and grounded in operational reality, then prototype, iterate with engineering, and own the outcome through launch and adoption
  • Navigate and align many PMM and engineering teams whose roadmaps this work depends on and negotiate sequencing, resolve conflicting constraints, and hold a clear point of view on tradeoffs
  • 10+ years in product management, platform management, or operations technology at least 5 in a technical product management role with direct delivery accountability for systems built with back-end engineering teams
