Job Description:
As a Staff Service Designer, you’ll shape the end-to-end systems that support great stays, scalable hospitality, and business sustainability. You’ll work across disciplines, partnering with operations, product, engineering, design, business, and more, to orchestrate how Airbnb’s services are delivered and experienced by guests, Hosts, and internal teams alike. Service Designers bring systems thinking, front-line research, and facilitation to the work of aligning product capabilities, operational processes, and human interactions. We bring diverse business functions together to design journeys that unfold across time, teams, and channels. The Staff Service Designer will focus on complex, cross-functional challenges where the customer experience is shaped by touchpoints that span multiple channels — digital, human, and environmental. You’ll lead service visioning, blueprinting, and journey orchestration, often in areas where business goals require operations, support, or in-person delivery to succeed. You’ll connect the frontstage and backstage, helping to ensure that what we design for users is not only engaging but also deliverable and sustainable in the real world. Your work will help bring coherence to how we show up across the entire service journey. This is an individual contributor (IC) role reporting to a Manager or Director of Design.
