About The Position

Passport & Commerce builds the trusted account and commerce foundation that lets anyone, anywhere, become part of the Airbnb community — from their first sign-up, through the profile and connections they build, to every booking, benefit, and business transaction along the way. We're a newly formed org within Guest & Host that brings together identity and commerce foundations under one roof. Our mission is to move Airbnb beyond the transaction — building a world where accounts create trust, value sticks, and the benefits our community earns travel with them, and their businesses, wherever they go. You'll work closely with Payments and Wallet engineering, Identity & Privacy, Profile & Community, and Guest & Host product, design, and data science partners as we stand up this team's roadmap and technical foundations. As a Software Engineer on the Web team within Passport & Commerce, you will build the web experiences that bring various account features to life for millions of guests and hosts. You'll own well-scoped features from technical design through launch, working closely with your backend, iOS, Android, and design counterparts. Success in this role looks like shipping reliable, performant, and polished web experiences that keep parity with our iOS and Android surfaces, growing your ownership over time as the web presence for this team expands, and becoming a dependable contributor the team can count on to deliver.

Requirements

3+ years of professional front-end/web engineering experience, including shipping features in a large-scale, production consumer web application
Proficiency in TypeScript and React (or a comparable modern framework), including component-driven architecture, state management, and data-fetching patterns (e.g., GraphQL)
Experience working with backend and other platform (iOS and Android) engineers to integrate APIs and keep cross-platform experiences consistent
A track record of delivering features from technical design through launch and iteration, with growing scope and independence
Strong communication and collaboration skills, and a habit of seeking and acting on feedback
Comfort operating with some ambiguity, including on a newly formed team establishing new surfaces for the first time
Solid understanding of web performance, accessibility (WCAG), responsive design, and CI/deployment practices for a large-scale consumer site

Responsibilities

Design and build web features using modern, component-driven React and TypeScript
Partner with product and design to turn new concepts into polished, accessible web experiences
Collaborate with backend, iOS, and Android engineers to keep feature behavior and data consistent across platforms
Write clean, well-tested, maintainable code, and actively participate in code and design reviews
Learn from and collaborate with senior engineers on the team, and contribute to shared web patterns and best practices as the team scales
Troubleshoot and resolve bugs, performance, and reliability issues affecting the web app
