This role involves defining the strategy for identity verification systems and leading cross-functional teams to execute a shared vision.

Responsibilities

  • Define and drive the roadmap for Identity on Airbnb — including mission-critical identity verification technologies and flows, new identity-related features, and extending the value of a verified identity beyond the immediate Airbnb platform
  • Make prioritization calls that balance multiple competing objectives: trust, guest experience, booking success, and overall marketplace health
  • Partner with design, engineering, and policy teams to collaboratively drive execution of the roadmap you define
  • Align cross-functional partners including Account, Trust & Safety, Guest Experience, Host Experience, and Customer Support — on shared goals and roadmap sequencing
  • Identify and evaluate external partnership opportunities that could extend the reach and value of our identity ecosystem
  • Design and oversee A/B experiments with rigorous metric design and long-term effect measurement and booking impact
  • Translate complex technical tradeoffs into clear decisions for engineering teams and concise narratives for leadership
  • Foster an environment where product managers, engineers, designers and other cross-functional team members align on shared goals and collaborate on building the future
  • Stay close to guests and hosts: synthesize user research, marketplace data, and competitive signals to sharpen your intuition and refine strategy

Skills

  • 8+ years of product management experience, with at least 3 years on identity and trust-related topics
  • Track record of owning strategy and roadmap for technically complex systems — not just managing features, but setting direction and making hard prioritization calls
  • Experience with identity standards being developed around the world and the ability to chart an ambitious long-term path through this evolving space
  • Ability to earn the respect of engineers and subject matter experts— engaging at a level that builds credibility
  • Expertise in collecting and using data to perform business analysis and support product strategy decisions
  • Clear, structured communicator who can distill complex technical tradeoffs for executives and translate strategy into actionable guidance for design and engineering
  • Comfort working in ambiguity and a bias toward innovative solutions rather than incremental ones
  • Experience evaluating external partnerships and an understanding of how partnerships can accelerate strategy
  • Demonstrated expertise pitching complex ideas to executive teams
  • Demonstrated experience in both inbound (feature definition) and outbound (communication and marketing) aspects of product management
  • Strong preference for candidates based on the West Coast of the US to collaborate efficiently with team members in the Pacific time zone

Benefits

  • This role may also be eligible for bonus, equity, benefits, and Employee Travel Credits.
