Responsibilities

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.

Payments and Central Strategic Finance & Analytics (SFA) owns the forecasting, reporting, and analysis behind the economics of Airbnb's global payments platform.

The team is responsible for planning and reporting payment processing costs and payments-driven financial results to key internal and external stakeholders, and partners with senior leaders across Payments, Product, and Finance to provide analytical support for critical business decisions.

The team also owns company-wide OKR performance management, running the monthly Strategy Performance Forum that gives leadership a single view of how Airbnb's strategy is tracking against its goals.

Airbnb moves tens of billions of dollars in guest and host payments every year, and the cost of processing those payments is one of the largest drivers of our cost of revenue — so how well we forecast, explain, and optimize it flows straight into the P&L and into what we report to investors each quarter.
