Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 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:
We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Site Reliability Engineering team. As a Senior Software Engineer in Production SRE, you will be responsible for developing and maintaining the tools and systems that enable our engineering teams to operate our services reliably and at scale. You will work closely with our SREs and other engineering teams to ensure our services are properly instrumented and able to scale with our growing business.
The Difference You Will Make:
In this role, your expertise in developing and maintaining tools and systems will be instrumental in bolstering our services' reliability and improving how the company manages incidents broadly.

A Typical Day:
• Design, implement and maintain the tools and systems that support service reliability, monitoring, and alerting.

• Work with infrastructure engineers to understand the challenges they face in operating our services and develop tools and systems to help them manage these challenges.
• Participate in incident response and post-mortems to identify and address systemic issues.
• Continuously evaluate new technologies and industry best practices to improve our SRE tooling and incident response procedures.
• Gain and maintain an intimate understanding of how the critical parts of the site work (services, infrastructure, product, tools, and processes)
• Lead high-urgency incidents and mentor less-experienced engineers in effectively handling incidents.
Your Expertise:
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field.
• 5+ years of experience in software engineering or SRE roles, with a focus on large scale distributed systems.
• Strong coding skills in at least one programming language, such as Java, Python, or Go.

A Note on Recruiting Scams: Scammers sometimes pose as Airbnb recruiters to get money or personal information from candidates. A few things that will always be true for Airbnb’s hiring process: our open roles are posted on Airbnb’s Career’s Page at careers.airbnb.com, and our recruiters correspond only from @ airbnb.com or @ ext.airbnb.com email addresses. Our recruiters will never ask for your Social Security number, bank account details, passport, or payment app information while you are interviewing. We’ll also never ask you to pay a fee, send money, deposit or cash a check, or purchase work-related equipment (such as a company laptop) during the interview process. We encourage candidates to remain vigilant of these recruiting scams and not share sensitive information if you do not believe an individual is actually affiliated with Airbnb.
