Staff Platform Manager, Conversational Products

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 a vision and mission driven company, and our Product Managers embody that mindset. Platform PMs imagine the ideal end state for our community first, work backwards from it, and deliver it in a scalable way. The AI Assistant team owns the agentic AI system that powers Airbnb's support experience for millions of guests and hosts. This is one of the highest-visibility applied-AI efforts at the company, and it sits at the intersection of large language models, platform thinking, and a genuinely two-sided marketplace. The Difference You Will Make: You will own the platform that determines how our AI Assistant reasons, retrieves, and responds: the layer that interprets each request and routes it, the knowledge and capabilities the assistant draws on, the actions it can take to actually resolve an issue, and the evaluation systems that keep it safe and accurate at scale. You will own what a good outcome looks like for the user, and the criteria we measure it against, working through partners who own the underlying knowledge and the engineering implementation. This is a role where Product both directs technical work and does it themselves. You will diagnose architectural problems, author the artifacts that become production behavior, and help drive engineering and data science decisions alongside your key partners. Support is high-stakes: people reach out when something has gone wrong…
