About The Position

Airbnb is seeking an experienced product leader to own the guest-facing quality merchandising experience. You will join the team focused on trip quality, building features that close the gap between guest expectations and actual trip experiences. You will lead the Trip Quality Merchandising product strategy and roadmap, using AI to devise novel and impactful ways to help customers evaluate and choose listings based on their needs. Core product areas include the review and ratings experience, personalized quality highlights, and listing match signals to ensure guests get what they expect from every stay. This role requires close partnership with the Policy, Privacy, and Legal teams — particularly on review integrity, AI-generated content, and trust-related guest-facing features. You will work especially closely with the quality data platform team to generate and consume accurate quality signals that foster a trusted marketplace, as well as across Design, Engineering, and Data Science to ship and iterate at scale. This is a critical role that spans the end-to-end guest experience around listing quality information, and the features you build will be part of the experience for every guest who considers booking a listing on Airbnb.
