The Community you will join:

At Airbnb, we want to build a world where anyone can belong anywhere – and the first step in that direction is creating a community that’s open, inclusive, and built on trust. In a world where our digital presence and identity is as important as our physical presence, we believe that a fundamental part of earning this trust is by ensuring that we protect our users human right to Privacy on our platform. At Airbnb, we envision a future where our highly trusted privacy practices and world-class privacy user experience will be part of the reason users chose us over the competition.

The difference you will make:

As we work towards achieving that mission and vision, we’re looking to add a highly technical, hands-on, and mission-driven Technical Program Manager (TPM) to the Data TPM team.

• Develop a portfolio view of the privacy initiatives impacting Tech at Airbnb.
• Drive adoption of privacy tech platforms to empower product/business teams to effectively ingest, store, process, transform, analyze, and curate personal data.
• Be responsible for identifying technical dependencies, and aligning with stakeholders on dependencies and associated risks, which could impact success of the programs.
• Develop metrics to measure the success of our tech platforms in relation to overall privacy goals and initiatives.
• Build relationships across various stakeholder groups across Airbnb and facilitate communication between cross-functional teams to ensure our tooling and processes are driving privacy improvements.
• Be the driver, evangelist, problem-solver, and leader who helps the Airbnb engineering and operations team gather and use personal data while maintaining strong privacy commitments towards our community.
• Dive deep into areas at risk, or in need of more hands-on program/technical project management to unblock and ensure successful outcomes.

• Experience working in a highly cross-functional environment (Eng, PM, DS, Analytics, Design, Ops, Legal, Infra, etc.) where communication with and the ability to influence multiple groups and executive teams is imperative.
• Ability to ramp up quickly and learn new technologies with minimal lag time.
• Excellent written and oral business communication and people skills, with the ability to influence diverse stakeholders at all levels.
