Responsibilities
- Define and drive the long-term vision and roadmap for the future of search on Airbnb, including next-generation AI capabilities like natural language and conversational search, query understanding, and intelligent ranking
- Own how guests search on Airbnb end to end — from the moment they express intent to the moment they find the right option
- Partner closely with engineering, applied ML, and data science teams to design, prototype, and ship AI-powered search experiences
- Use quantitative analysis and experimentation (A/B testing) to validate that new search capabilities improve relevance, conversion, and guest satisfaction
- Translate ambiguous guest problems into clear product requirements, prioritized against business impact and technical feasibility
- Collaborate with design and research to understand how guests search, filter, and decide today — and where AI can remove friction
- Work cross-functionally with Host-side and Trust teams to ensure smarter search continues to surface the right inventory fairly and accurately
- Communicate roadmap, results, and trade-offs clearly to engineering partners and leadership
Skills
- 10+ years of consumer product management experience, with a track record of owning a product area end to end

- Strong business acumen and ability to use data, research, and experimentation to drive product strategy and decisions
- Demonstrated ability to work closely with ML/data science teams and understand the trade-offs of model-driven products
- Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills across engineering, design, data science, and other cross-functional teams
- A user-centered mindset — you dig into how guests actually search and where they get stuck, not just metrics dashboards
- Experience working on search, discovery, ranking, or recommendation systems is strongly preferred

- This role may also be eligible for bonus, equity, benefits, and Employee Travel Credits.
