Staff Product Manager
About the role
The Staff Product Manager will own the supply-side product experience, driving members to host their homes, add availability, and build lasting hosting habits. They will design product systems that make hosting feel natural, trustworthy, and rewarding, from first home setup all the way to becoming a recurring host. This role sits at the intersection of behavioral product design, marketplace economics, and growth.
