<div class="content-intro"><p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">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.</span></p></div><p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><strong>The Community You Will Join</strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Our Product Marketing Managers work backwards from the ideal experience for guests and hosts, turning product thinking, data, and research into strategy. They lead cross-functional teams across engineering, design, data science, program management, and marketing, and they stay detail-oriented and hands-on.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">The Guest product team builds the end-to-end journey guests take with us, from the first idea through the trip itself. Trips is where that journey comes together: the place guests see their reservations, plan what to do, coordinate with their group, and add experiences and services to their stay.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><strong>The Difference You Will Make</strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Airbnb is expanding beyond stays into experiences and services. Trips is where that growth happens: guests who have already booked a stay discover and book everything else for their trip. As Product Marketing Manager for Trips, you'll help build that business from its early stages into a habit for millions of guests. You'll own the feature roadmap across much of the Trips program and make the calls on scope and priority with your design and engineering teams. You'll lead those teams from brief to launch, use a steady cadence of experiment results to decide what to build next, and grow the share of trips that include experiences, services, and more. You'll also craft the product narrative that explains each release to leadership internally and to guests externally.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><strong>A Typical Day</strong></span></p> <ul> <li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;

A few things that will always be true for Airbnb’s hiring process: our open roles are posted on Airbnb’s Career’s Page at careers.airbnb.com, and our recruiters correspond only from @<a href="http://airbnb.com">airbnb.com</a> or @<a href="http://ext.airbnb.com">ext.airbnb.com</a> email addresses. Our recruiters will never ask for your Social Security number, bank account details, passport, or payment app information while you are interviewing.&nbsp; We’ll also never ask you to pay a fee, send money, deposit or cash a check, or purchase work-related equipment (such as a company laptop) during the interview process. We encourage candidates to remain vigilant of these recruiting scams and not share sensitive information if you do not believe an individual is actually affiliated with Airbnb.</span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p></div>
