[Remote] Product Manager, Social Features

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Airbnb is hiring a Product Manager for Social Features to build social product experiences that encourage guests to plan, book, and share trips with people they know. The role leads a cross-functional pod, owns feature strategy and delivery from brief through launch, and uses experiments and metrics to guide product decisions.

Responsibilities

• Work backwards from the guest: write crisp briefs and requirements for new features, each grounded in a real guest need and a clear definition of success
• Prototype with AI first: build working prototypes yourself to explore ideas, test them with guests, and align the team in days rather than weeks
• Drive execution with engineering, design, data science, and program management, from concept through launch and iteration, often with several features in flight at once
• Go deep with the team on the details: review builds, test flows yourself, and chase down the edge cases that decide whether a feature delivers for guests
• Shape how connections are integrated across the guest journey, from search and booking to Trips, so planning and traveling with people you know feels natural
• Build shareable, delightful moments like the travel map that bring new people to Airbnb and grow the social graph
• Partner with the social graph and social experiences pods, and with Trips, Search, Checkout, and other partner teams, to ship work that spans surfaces
• Design for trust and privacy from the start, with clear controls over what people share and with whom
• Put mechanisms in place, like goals and a weekly metrics review, so the team knows where it stands and acts on it
• Partner with data scientists on experiments, dive deep into the results, and make clear calls on what to scale, iterate on, or stop
• Present strategy and results in leadership reviews, turning complex tradeoffs into clear decisions and concise narratives

Skills

• 8+ years in product marketing or product management, with a track record of moving a core consumer metric (engagement, retention, sharing, or conversion) through features you led to launch
• Experience building social or network-driven products: sharing, invites, feeds, profiles, group features, or connection-based recommendations
• Deeply AI-native in how you work: you use AI tools every day for prototyping, research, specs, and analysis, and you've changed how your team builds because of it
• Obsessed with the details: you go as deep as it takes with engineering and design, from data to edge cases, to make sure what ships drives great outcomes for guests
• Strong execution and a bias for action: you've led cross-functional teams through complex launches on time and at a high quality bar, and you move fast on decisions that are easy to reverse
• Fluent in experiment results: you can define what a test needs to learn, read growth metrics alongside guardrails like trust, privacy, and satisfaction, and turn them into product decisions
• Strong judgment of consumer product quality, a high bar for craft, and a clear sense of what makes an experience fun, useful, and worth sharing
• Comfort working in a new, fast-moving area where you set the roadmap and build the team's operating rhythm
• Ability to earn the trust of engineering, design, and data science partners and lead without formal authority
• Clear, structured writer and communicator who can distill complex tradeoffs for executives and translate strategy into actionable guidance for teams
• Experience at a consumer marketplace or travel company, or launching a new social product at scale (preferred)

Benefits

• This role may also be eligible for bonus, equity, benefits, and Employee Travel Credits.
• US - Remote Eligible; the role may include occasional work at an Airbnb office or attendance at offsites, as agreed to with your manager. You must live in a state where Airbnb, Inc. has a registered entity.
