Full Job Description

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: Airbnb’s mission is to create a world where people can Belong Anywhere. As we grow to achieve that mission, we’re looking to add a technical, hands-on, and mission-driven Technical Program Manager (TPM) to support the Payments Engineering team. This person will partner with our Payments engineering, ops, and product teams to build new Payments capabilities and deliver strategic business priorities. We are looking for a candidate with a robust technical background who understands the problem space and leverages their expertise to lead multiple strategic programs that deliver value and fulfill key commitments aligned with Airbnb's priorities in payments. The Difference You Will Make: You will play a crucial role in tackling complexity and delivering predictable, consistent, and impactful results. You will be leading complex projects/ programs that touch multiple product surfaces, services, functions and teams, and hence are required to keep the big picture in focus while being able to dive into the details, working through unique challenges. Success in this role requires a strong sense of ownership, coupled with the ability to think critically and strategically while managing relationships with cross-functional stakeholders. A Typical Day: Lead planning, execution, and delivery of large cross-functional initiatives aimed at meeting key business priorities. Balance broad, outcome-driven thinking with attention to critical details, exercising sound judgment to prioritize where deep focus is necessary to ensure successful execution. Shape and influence the technical direction of projects
