Airbnb was born in 2007 when two Hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 4 million Hosts who have welcomed more than 1 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:

The Cancellation team within our Guest & Host organization owns the product and systems responsible for managing Guest, Host, and administrative cancellations on the platform. Some examples include Cancel by Guest, Guest rebooking, Aircover for Guests, and Cancel by Host flows & backing orchestration. Similar to the booking flow itself, most new Airbnb features and products interact with Cancellations, so defining and executing a strategy that enables both development speed and management of that complexity is a critical core competency for the team.

• Own key company level problem statements such as Cancel By Host Reduction. An engineer in this role should expect to contribute across the team on initiatives such as these.
• Work closely with cross functional partners e.g. PMs along with Design, Data, and TPM will be key partners for someone in this role.
• Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior engineers, fostering a culture of knowledge sharing and continuous learning

Your Expertise:

• 6+ years engineering experience with a BS/Masters and 2+ years with a PhD
• Bachelor’s and/or Master’s degree, preferably in CS, or equivalent experience
