Responsibilities

Support, scale, and advance security or related functions through practical applied uses of data analytics, ML models, and integration of genAI and LLM models from past experience at equivalent size, scope, scale, and technically complex companies comparable to Airbnb.

Provide strategic approaches and methodologies to advance security disciplines working with large scale structured and unstructured data, build, and continuously improve cutting edge Machine Learning models for these disciplines.

Continuously identify, drive, and support opportunities where Information Security disciplines can benefit from your area of expertise. Work collaboratively with cross-functional partners including software engineers, product managers, operations, and data scientists to do so.

Work through ambiguity to detailed solutions. You can and support others to take a vague problem, crisply frame the challenge, what’s being solved for, identify a path forward, and drive an initiative over the finish-line.

You have a demonstrated ability to see the interconnectedness of not only the immediate problem you’re solving for, but also those of other organizations to unify cross-functional stakeholders to deliver solutions that are best for Airbnb vs. a single business unit.

Self-motivated, proactive and proven ability to adapt well and work with teams having different operating cadences and breadth of subject matter backgrounds.

Provide sound business judgment, a proven ability to influence others, strong analytical skills, and a track record of taking ownership, leading data driven analyses, and influencing results.

Develop processes where little exists across large organizations, and demonstrated flexibility to get things done.

Drive technology changes to improve capabilities to protect Airbnb in your area of expertise.
