What they do

Airbnb runs a global marketplace where hosts offer stays and experiences to guests. It started in 2007, when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home. It now has over 5 million hosts, who welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country.

What they value

• Champion the Mission: create connection, which enables belonging.
• Be a Host: be caring, open, and encouraging to everyone.
• Embrace the Adventure: open curiosity, hopeful resilience, and belief that every person can grow.
• Be a Cereal Entrepreneur: turn bold ambitions into reality with creativity.
• Live and work anywhere in your country, with regular team gatherings.

Where they hire

Most of the 159 Postings are in the United States, many of them remote. Many US roles are Remote Eligible, but only in states where Airbnb has a registered entity. Canada, Brazil, Mexico, India, Japan, Korea, the UK, and Southeast Asia also have roles. Four Mandarin-speaking support roles in Asia say that visa sponsorship is not available.
