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:

The Offline Design team plays a pivotal role in designing Airbnb products offered to guests around the world. Our teammates deeply understand the needs of our guests and hosts, and continuously innovate to create world-class products. This includes a strong ability to partner with talented cross-functional team members across product marketing, business, operations, supply, and legal—to execute a shared vision and achieve ambitious goals.

The Difference You Will Make:

As the Experience Designer on the Offline Design team, you will be responsible for articulating what makes a great experience for Airbnb travelers. The role will have a focus on applying deep experience design expertise and an end-to-end customer perspective to define how to ensure quality at scale. Your ability to prototype new formats will enable the Supply and Production teams to scale the product vision effectively. This role will impact multiple products at Airbnb.

A Typical Day:

Create playbooks: Test products while using research and your expertise to define best practices for various formats to uphold quality at scale across the product.
Quality standards: Hold a high standard of quality, with an ability to clearly articulate criteria and reasoning.
Prototype: Design and prototype new categories of products to test and prove out hypotheses.
