Senior Staff UX Writer
About The Position
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. You'll join a foundational team exploring the ways Airbnb can foster guests' and hosts' relationships to the people that matter to them, on the platform and out in the world. You’ll help design new features that let people connect meaningfully with other travelers–to share advice, inspire each other, and plan more great trips together. Ideally, you love ambiguous problem spaces and thinking through complex interactive ecosystems.
