Resumo da oferta

Airbnb is seeking a Software Engineer to build AI-native quality workflows that scale across its platform. You will design AI-powered testing systems, integrate with CI/CD, and help developers and quality engineers deliver high-quality software.

You will work across web/mobile stacks (TypeScript, Swift, Kotlin, Java, Python), apply prompt engineering and RAG, mentor teammates, and collaborate with Mobile, Infra, Product Engineering, and Quality Engineering teams to improve testing efficiency.

Qualificações

• 4+ years of software engineering experience in high-scale environments.
• Experience with testing frameworks and CI/CD pipelines.
• Hands-on experience with AI/LLMs and prompt engineering.
• Experience in fullstack and platform engineering (client and server).
• Understanding of distributed systems and large-scale architectures.
• Strong problem solving and communication skills.

Responsabilidades

• Build AI agents for the testing lifecycle, from test case generation to automation and coverage maintenance.
• Advance AI-native quality by adapting test coverage to code changes and system behavior.
• Improve developer and QE productivity through intelligent automation in CI/CD workflows.
• Integrate AI capabilities into engineering workflows providing contextual insights during development and testing.
• Hands-on development of end-to-end systems using languages like TypeScript, Swift, Kotlin, Java, Python.
• Develop AI-assisted capabilities such as e2e validation on PRs, automated quality gates, and test-case generation.
• Design scalable AI-driven systems within large-scale engineering environments.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Mobile, Infra, Product Engineering, and Quality Engineering teams.
• Explore prompt engineering and RAG approaches to improve system effectiveness.
• Mentor teammates and raise AI application standards across the team.

Descrição da oferta de emprego

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

The Quality Platform team is at the heart of Airbnb’s mission to deliver a seamless, high-quality experience for millions of hosts and guests. We don’t just find bugs — we build the systems that prevent them.

Our team sits at the intersection of Quality Engineering, Infrastructure, and Applied AI. We are evolving how software quality is built by integrating LLMs, intelligent automation, and data-driven systems into the testing lifecycle. You will join a high-impact group of engineers focused on building AI-powered quality systems that scale across one of the world’s most complex codebases.

The Difference You Will Make

As a Software Engineer, you will play a key role in building and evolving AI-native quality workflows across Airbnb. You will design systems that apply AI directly to the testing lifecycle, helping developers and quality engineers build, validate, and ship high-quality software at scale.

In This Role, You Will

• Build AI Agents for the Testing Lifecycle: Design and implement AI agents that support developers and quality engineers across the testing lifecycle — from test case generation and evolution to automation and maintaining test coverage as the codebase changes.
• Advance AI-Native Quality: Move beyond traditional automation by building systems that continuously adapt test coverage based on code changes and system behavior.
• Improve Developer and QE Productivity: Identify bottlenecks in testing and CI/CD workflows, and solve them through intelligent automation that reduces manual effort and accelerates feedback loops.
• Integrate AI into Engineering Workflows: Embed AI capabilities into real development environments, enabling both developers and quality engineers to receive contextual, actionable insights during development and testing.

A Typical Day

• Hands-on Development: Build end-to-end systems and tools (TypeScript, Swift, Kotlin, Java, Python) that will power Airbnb’s AI quality platform. This includes services, developer tooling, and UI surfaces that integrate AI into testing frameworks/infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and everyday developer workflows.
• Applied AI: Develop AI-assisted capabilities such as context-aware agentic E2E validation on pull requests, agentic execution of business-critical flows as quality gates, agentic surface discovery and exploratory testing, and systems for test case generation, and coverage maintenance.
• System Design: Participate in the design of scalable AI-driven systems operating within large-scale engineering environments.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Mobile, Infrastructure, Product Engineering, and Quality Engineering teams to integrate AI into real-world development workflows.
• Experimentation & Iteration: Explore approaches such as prompt engineering and RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) to improve system effectiveness and adaptability.
• Mentorship: Provide technical guidance and help raise the bar for applying AI in engineering systems across the team.

Your Expertise

• Experience: 4+ years of software engineering experience in high-scale environments, ideally building platforms, infra, or developer/quality tooling, with exposure to or strong interest in AI/ML or LLM-based systems.
• Quality / DexEx/ Tooling Systems : Experience with testing frameworks, CI/CD pipelines, developer experience tooling, or quality engineering platforms.
• Applied AI / LLMs: Hands-on experience building applications using LLMs (prompting, APIs, RAG, evaluation, or similar) is a strong plus.
• Fullstack & Platform Engineering: Experience building both client and server-side systems. You can work on modern web/mobile stacks(Swift, Kotlin) and tooling, as well as the supporting backend services (Java, Python).
• Systems Thinking: Understanding of distributed systems, CI/CD workflows, and large-scale software architectures.
• Problem Solving: Ability to navigate ambiguity and design practical, scalable solutions.
• Communication: Strong ability to collaborate across teams and explain complex concepts clearly.
