Engineering Manager, Payments

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 AirCover protects Hosts and guests on Airbnb, including Host liability insurance, Experiences liability insurance and Host damage protection.

As the Engineering Manager for the AirCover Insurance Platform, you will lead the system that lets Airbnb launch, price, enroll and service insurance products in new regions, and that lets the business test what drives Hosts and guests to be covered.

You will lead a team of senior and staff engineers across backend engineering through the platform's next phase: from region-by-region builds to a configurable, globally scalable platform, and from ad hoc tests to a rigorous experimentation engine that raises attach rates.

The team partners closely with Product, Design, Data Science, Legal, Insurance and Finance, and with teams across Airbnb that depend on AirCover.

Build the experimentation foundation that lets Product and Data Science test coverage offers, pricing, placement and messaging, and measure their effect on attach rate. Deliver a multi-year platform roadmap and global rollout on a fast-growing team with greenfield opportunities.

Apply data and LLM-driven automation where it improves coverage decisions, quality and the Host and guest experience. Grow a team that owns initiatives end to end, in an inclusive environment that values well-being and sustainable engineering practices. A Typical Day Work with senior leaders to define the long-term t
