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.

The Community You Will Join:

Payments Compliance Platform

At Airbnb, if there’s anything related to money, it comes to the Payments team.  We are building a world-class payments and commerce organization - one that currently supports 191 countries, 70 currencies, connects dozens of payment providers and banks, processes multiple billions of dollars, and empowers more people to participate in our global marketplace.

The Difference You Will Make:

First and foremost, we’re looking for people who know and use Airbnb and believe in what we’re trying to accomplish. Airbnb is a marketplace that connects guests and hosts but provides the level of trust needed to enable each transaction. Payments is central to creating that trust, which is why Payments is a core and strategic part of Airbnb. 

The Platform team is at the center of all of the activity on our team. We play the role of conductor, enhancing our engineers, designers, and data scientists to build great product experiences. Our Payments Compliance Product Managers own and lead outcomes related to foundation, growth, and empowerment. This means our PMs set the vision and strategy, the roadmap, and execute on the plans that are developed.

Our Payments product organization has 2 domains:

• Payments and Commerce platform - facilitating money movement and exchange of value while also fueling growth for our business,
• Payments Compliance and Payments Risk - ensuring safe and efficient payment processing,

This role is in the Payments Compliance & Payments Risk domain. The PM Payments Compliance Tooling role will contribute to how we build our in-house investigative tooling products from the ground up. As Airbnb continues to expand globally and into new business verticals, our internal tools need to scale up as platform capabilities. In collaboration with Payments Compliance leadership, you will define the strategy for Tooling products, ensuring we’re able to  protect and grow our community with best in class Financial Crime management products and effectively onboard & monitor customers and investigate & report on suspicious activities. You will work with a cross functional team of engineers, data scientists, Payments Compliance operations, and legal to develop the core of our products, and then scale globally. If this sounds like an amazing challenge to you, we’d love to meet you!
