The Role
As a Senior Software Engineer in Quality Engineering at Airbnb, you will architect and develop test tools, environments, and frameworks; write and test code; and lead design reviews.

Summary Generated by Built In

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:

  • The Quality Engineering team helps Airbnb build high-quality software efficiently. We enable Airbnb engineers to build highly testable systems. We own and continuously improve Airbnb’s test automation tools, environments and frameworks. We navigate Airbnb’s massive codebase identifying weak spots, and help design and implement testable fault-tolerant systems

The Difference You Will Make:

  • As a global company and product, tools and frameworks that we build have to scale to the needs of both our external customers but also to our internal stakeholders.  Therefore, our mission is to ensure that Airbnb has the tooling and frameworks necessary to assure quality at scale.
  • As a Senior Software Engineer, you will help us meet this challenge by architecting and developing our test tools/environments/frameworks, writing and testing product/system code, leading design reviews to architect testable systems, and guiding designs and code to improve its modularity and testability. You are eager to understand complex systems top to bottom and thrive working across technologies and codebases. In addition, you excel at working through ambiguity, concept validation, and implementing best-in-class solutions.

A Typical Day: 

  • Build, maintain and support our platforms – infrastructure, applications, environments and tools using your expertise in distributed systems
  • Help build out the team, cultivate innovation and growth by driving cross-collaboration and execution of projects across multiple teams
  • Be a player of our high-performance team to ensure code quality, commitment to craft and operational excellence
  • Scale distributed applications in a highly-available 24x7 environment, make architectural trade-offs applying design patterns and disciplined execution
  • Work with cross-functional teams spanning design, product, data science, and research partners to drive engineering decisions and influence outcomes

Your Expertise:

  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science/engineering or equivalent
  • 5+ years of software development experience, or 2+ years with a PhD in a fast paced, high growth tech environment
  • Demonstrable knowledge in any of Java, Swift, Kotlin, Python, Typescript, Go, Rust, C/C++/C#
  • Demonstrated expertise in developing for testability, test automation frameworks and infrastructure
  • Experience architecting and/or developing distributed systems
  • Excellent communication skills towards facilitating interactions with cross-functional teams and leaders.
  • Hands-on technical leadership leading multiple teams and setting technical direction
  • Expertise developing solutions to ambiguous problems, and integrations across multiple teams with significant impact

What We Do

At Airbnb, we believe that hosts, guests and the communities where we operate are all stakeholders we have a responsibility to serve, and that by serving them alongside our employees and investors, we will build an enduringly successful company.
