About the job
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
Airbnb Payments team allows any two people in the world to frictionlessly exchange money with easy-to-use payments services. It is a core strategy to fulfill Airbnb’s "belongs anywhere" mission. We are building a world-class payments platform that moves billions of dollars in 191 countries, with 75 currencies, through a complex ecosystem of payments partners. We build and maintain our own in-house global payments platform because no solution exists with the global reach needed. As the platform grows, we’ll be adding new payment partners, global licenses, compliance and regulation controls, and building new payment experiences for our guests and hosts.
The Payments Operational Tooling team at Airbnb is responsible for developing and maintaining web-based frontend tools and Java-based backend services that empower Customer Support agents and payment specialists to solve payment-related issues for our guests and hosts. As a member of this team, you will play a crucial role in ensuring a seamless payment experience for our global community.
The Difference You Will Make
We’re looking for talented engineers who can fluidly work across the stack and are interested in working in a highly dynamic environment by collaborating with cross-functional and cross-site teams. As an engineer on our team, you will utilize your expertise and knowledge in frontend and backend technologies to contribute to the design and implementation of scalable and secure systems and devise creative solutions for developing intuitive and responsive user interfaces.
