Founded in 2007, Airbnb has grown into a global phenomenon with over 5 million hosts and 2 billion guest arrivals worldwide.

In this role, you'll be at the forefront of developing critical user-facing features that power Airbnb's core experiences, including user profiles, listing management, reviews, and performance insights. You'll work with cutting-edge technologies like Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, while collaborating with a diverse team of product managers, designers, and engineers to deliver high-quality mobile solutions.

Your impact will extend beyond just coding – you'll be establishing technical vision, mentoring other engineers, and driving mobile best practices. The ideal candidate brings 9+ years of Android engineering experience, deep expertise in building scalable consumer applications, and a passion for creating exceptional user experiences.

This is an opportunity to join a company that values diversity, inclusion, and belonging, working on products that help create meaningful connections worldwide.
