Airbnb was born in 2007 when two Hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 4 million Hosts who have welcomed more than 1 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:

The Scaled Operations team at Airbnb increases the effectiveness, utilization, quality and impact of the Homes and Experiences on Airbnb using people-powered operations. We also work closely with the Standards team to devise and test policies that will balance the needs of our guests and hosts.The Analytics team on Scaled Operations is responsible for enabling our leadership to make data-driven decisions. This can be via dashboards for regular reporting, quick questions on business drivers, or longer-term collaborations to drive and shape new business initiatives. We work across a broad set of problems with a board set of stakeholders, where we occasionally work with tight timelines and ambiguous requests. Proficiency in managing clients in fast-changing environments, and tenacity to find answers where they are not clear are hallmarks of the team.

The Difference You Will Make:

As an Operations Business Analyst, you will partner closely with cross-functional stakeholders to deliver the data pipelines, dashboards and insights projects that they need.
