- Hands-on experience with AI-assisted analytics workflows (Claude, ChatGPT, internal LLM agents) including prompt engineering, structured extraction from unstructured text, and using LLMs as classifiers or judges.
- Experience building metrics end-to-end, including definitions, validation, and implementation in data pipelines.
- Strong analytical judgment, ability to balance rigor with speed and clearly communicate tradeoffs.

And with world-class customer service and a growing community of users, Airbnb is the easiest way for people to monetize their extra space and showcase it to an audience of millions. No global movement springs from individuals. It takes an entire team united behind something big. Together, we work hard, we laugh a lot, we brainstorm nonstop, we use hundreds of Post-Its a week, and we give the best high-fives in town. Headquartered in San Francisco, we have satellite offices in Dublin, London, Barcelona, Paris, Milan, Copenhagen, Berlin, Moscow, São Paolo, Sydney, and Singapore.
