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 Difference You Will Make: Our mission is to make every Airbnb engineer's day better by building world-class developer infrastructure that removes friction and provides the tools to unlock their best work. The Dev AI team specifically builds the foundational AI tooling and infrastructure that powers developer productivity across the entire software development lifecycle, also providing the building blocks for teams across the company to quickly and simply create their own domain-specific AI tools.

In this role, you will help to shape and execute the technical direction of the team's infrastructure and products.
