Senior Data Scientist, Guest & Host at Airbnb

This role is ideal for an experienced Data Scientist with a strong product sense and a background in marketplaces. You should have at least 5 years of experience (or 2+ with a PhD) and a proven track record of partnering with product and engineering teams to launch user-facing features. The ideal candidate excels at using causal inference and experimentation to measure impact, specifically within guest and host dynamics. The position offers a highly competitive salary range ($177k–$208k) plus equity, bonuses, and travel credits. A standout feature is the "fully remote" flexibility, allowing you to work from most U.S. states while still collaborating with a world-class team. You’ll have the chance to work on high-impact projects involving LLMs, NLP, and geospatial data to shape the future of a global travel platform. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Are an expert in SQL and either Python or R, with experience building and scaling data assets. * Have a deep understanding of experimental design (A/B testing) and observational causal analysis. * Enjoy translating complex technical findings into actionable strategy for non-technical stakeholders. * Are excited about applying advanced technologies like LLMs to improve destination discovery and host acquisition.
