Engineering Manager, Host Pricing - Product UI Foundations

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 :

Airbnb is powered by our Host and Guest communities. Our teams work on everything from driving improvements for the end-to-end Host and Guest experience to launching new product verticals from the ground up. Our job is to build world-class, comprehensive platforms and features to create high quality experiences for our outstanding community of Hosts and Guests.

The Host Pricing org is forming a dedicated Frontend team to drive architecture and client experiences across pricing, availability, and guidance surfaces. This team will build and maintain reusable, cross-platform design systems and custom surfaces, enabling Airbnb to deliver consistent and high-quality experiences for both hosts and guests.

As an Engineering Manager, you will partner closely with product, design, and cross-functional engineering teams to shape the foundation of our client-facing architecture. You will bring leadership and technical expertise across Web, iOS, and Android platforms while advocating for scalable patterns such as GraphQL and modern design system practices.

The Difference You Will Make :

  • Build a new team : Lead a newly created group of 10 client engineers (3 Android, 3 iOS, 4 Web) spun out from two existing teams, providing clarity of mission and ownership of Airbnb’s Host Pricing frontend architecture.
  • Advance frontend architecture : Establish a sustainable architecture across surfaces (pricing, availability, guidance) and advocate for GraphQL-driven patterns to unify client experience.
  • Shape design systems : Lead the development of Airbnb’s pricing design system, including reusable, customizable, and cross-platform frontend components that will serve as the foundation for scalable UI delivery.

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure that pricing and availability experiences are reliable, performant, and visually cohesive.
  • Collaborate with other senior leaders to define and drive long-term technical strategy and architecture that enables the company’s future vision.
  • Establish a technical vision and lead efforts to architect, build, and launch reliable, performant, and scalable solutions.
  • Collaborate with and influence cross-functional partners to design and deliver high-quality products.
  • Lead team technical initiatives, and work cross-functionally to identify opportunities for business impact, refine, and prioritize requirements for engineering systems.
  • Lead conversations that align technical efforts with business outcomes and product priorities.
  • Nurture a culture of technical quality and engineering excellence from design, through code review, to production.
  • Enable and empower ICs to grow their impact beyond individual contributions, creating opportunities for them to lead technical initiatives that span across platforms and organizations.
  • Retain, grow and hire a team of high-performing engineers. Build a strong and diverse team capable of turning ambitious product visions into a polished reality.
  • Your Expertise :
