Staff, Advanced Analytics, Incubations

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, a leader in travel and hospitality, is on a mission to create a world where anyone can belong anywhere. Long-Term Stay & Luxe is being built with 0-to-1 intensity inside a marketplace that already moves at massive scale, and this team needs people who can operate like founders while still respecting the rigor of a mature, two-sided marketplace.

The Difference You Will Make:

Airbnb is seeking a Staff, Advanced Analytics to be the analytics owner and strategic partner for Long-Term Stay & Luxe — setting the agenda for what gets measured and tested, building the quantitative models that underpin how the business grows, and operating as a peer to product and business leadership.

A Typical Day:

• Own the end-to-end analytics strategy and roadmap for Long-Term Stay & Luxe — decide what to measure, what to test, and where the biggest leverage is. Prioritization decisions should exist because of your recommendations.
• Build and evolve the quantitative models that run the business: supply-demand balance, marketplace liquidity, pricing and take-rate models, and LTV/forecasting — going beyond dashboards to build the underlying data models and pipelines.
• Design and analyze experiments across pricing, search and ranking, host onboarding, and guest conversion. Develop causal-inference approaches (holdouts, proxy metrics, quasi-experimental methods) for the many cases where a clean randomized trial isn't possible given lower volumes or longer booking cycles.
• Act as a proactive strategic partner to product, GM, and cross-functional leaders — surface insights and recommendations ahead of the task, and directly shape what the team builds, tests, and invests in next.
• Build scalable, self-serve reporting and OKR tracking that gives leadership real-time visibility into two fast-moving, still-forming businesses.
• Move fast and stay effective in high-ambiguity, high-intensity conditions — the business model, metrics, and priorities will keep evolving, and you should find that energizing rather than draining.
