  • 9+ years of industry experience, including 3-5+ years in engineering management
  • Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Computer Science, Data Engineering, or a related field
  • Background in data engineering, platform engineering, or data infrastructure — you understand entity modeling, schema evolution, data contracts, and what it takes to build systems that downstream teams can rely on
  • Hands-on fluency with distributed data systems: batch and streaming pipelines, online and offline serving, or event-driven architectures — sufficient to drive design reviews and challenge engineers on tradeoffs
  • Experience building in a cross-functional platform role — you have navigated the tension between what producers can deliver and what consumers need, and you know how to make progress without direct authority over every team in the chain
  • Comfort with greenfield work: you have built something from a blank schema or an early-stage spec, not just inherited a running system
  • Strong instinct for what belongs in shared infrastructure versus what stays in a product team
  • Clear communicator: able to represent technical decisions to senior leadership and keep producers and consumers aligned across a program with many moving parts
  • Commitment to engineering excellence, diversity, and belonging

  • Closely partner with compute and data infrastructure teams to drive the state-of-the-art for realtime data processing at Airbnb
  • Partner with proactive trip support, customer support triage, and host AI product teams to validate that the signal layer meets their actual use cases, not a spec written in isolation
  • Review designs spanning attribute serving, real-time event pipelines, and cross-system entity mapping
  • Work closely with the principal engineer and program manager on roadmap sequencing and escalation of infrastructure dependencies
