The Data Scientist, Algorithms role

Airbnb data scientists work on growth, pricing, marketplace ranking and AI-driven support using causal inference, experimentation and ML. Hiring is rolling through Greenhouse; volume is small and skews Staff, and every open req is remote-eligible.

A dedicated DS ladder (L3–L8 on levels.fyi) with tracks in current reqs spanning growth product, pricing, marketplace ranking and LLM/ML algorithms, plus a separate Advanced Analytics function in the Analytics department.

Worth knowing: Airbnb’s only non-Staff Data Scientist req (first published June 28, 2026) is LLM-heavy: automating LLM evaluation and curating synthetic datasets for Community Support.
