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
Airbnb’s mission is to create a world where people can Belong Anywhere. As we grow to achieve that mission, we’re looking to add a technical, hands-on, and mission-driven Technical Program Manager (TPM) for the Community Support Engineering (CSE) team. This person will partner with our CS engineering, ops and product teams to build/enhance decision making across multiple areas in Airbnb. They will partner closely with the engineering leaders in CSE on processes, strategy and execution. The team is looking for a person with the technical background, who understands the problem space, will drive requirements, leverage and apply their expertise to solve strategic problems at Airbnb.
The Difference You Will Make
If you strive to improve productivity, have a strong analytical approach to problems, and love the challenge of building new organizational capabilities, this is the role for you. TPMs at Airbnb work on a variety of complex projects/programs that touch multiple product surfaces, services, functions and teams, and hence are required to keep the big picture in focus while being able to dive into the details, working through unique challenges. It is a highly leveraged role that aims to improve the quality and velocity of work across cross-functional teams by acting as a “force multiplier.” This includes managing project schedules, identifying risks, discussing the technical trade-offs with engineers, and maintaining clear communications across multiple stakeholder groups across the organization. They make work repeatable by creating and improving processes where applicable. In short, they get things done by bringing clarity out of chaos, diving into the details, and communicating clearly and in a timely manner. They're good at building relationships, motivating others with vision, and persuading with data.

- Manage effective communications to leadership and across teams on key decisions, status, and risks to ensure accountability and timeline management.
- Define and align on success criteria with relevant stakeholders. Regularly assess risks and identify ways to mitigate them.
- Partner with developer teams to develop and enforce high quality internal documentation.
- Collaborate with leadership to implement best practices and aligning on priorities across CSE.
- Provide visibility into key performance indicators so leaders are aware of risks and opportunities.
- In this role, you will be expected to work independently with stakeholders and cross-functional leadership, maintain focus on key priorities, and not let important details slip through the cracks or derail a project.

- Regularly assess opportunities, drive for process improvements, and find new ways of operating, with a focus on simplification and productivity.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Technician Jobs at Airbnb Jobs
Align Your Credentials to Specialty Occupation Standards
Technician roles can face H-1B scrutiny if the position doesn't clearly require a specific bachelor's degree. Document how your technical degree field directly supports the role's core duties, not just the job title.
Target Airbnb's Infrastructure and Facilities Teams
Airbnb's Technician hires concentrate in teams managing physical infrastructure, AV systems, and workplace technology. Search for postings under Workplace or Real Estate operations to find the roles most consistently tied to visa sponsorship.
Confirm LCA Wage Levels Match Your Experience Tier
Airbnb files a Labor Condition Application with DOL before any H-1B petition. Check the DOL's OFLC disclosure data for the wage level Airbnb assigned to similar Technician roles so your salary expectations align before the offer stage.
Use Migrate Mate to Filter Airbnb Technician Openings by Visa Type
Browse Airbnb's active Technician postings filtered by your visa category on Migrate Mate. Seeing which roles historically paired with E-3, TN, or H-1B sponsorship lets you prioritize applications where your situation fits the company's existing workflow.
Request a Clear Sponsorship Timeline at the Offer Stage
Before signing, ask Airbnb's recruiting team which visa type they plan to file, whether they use premium processing, and who manages the petition internally. Knowing this upfront prevents surprises around your start date and status transition.

Find Technician at Airbnb JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Airbnb sponsor H-1B visas for Technicians?
Yes, Airbnb sponsors H-1B visas for Technician roles where the position qualifies as a specialty occupation under USCIS standards. The key factor is demonstrating that the role requires a specific bachelor's degree in a relevant technical field. Roles in AV systems, workplace technology, and facilities infrastructure have the clearest path to meeting that threshold.
How do I apply for Technician jobs at Airbnb?
Apply directly through Airbnb's careers portal, targeting postings within Workplace, Facilities, or IT Infrastructure teams. Tailor your resume to the specific technical systems the role covers. If you need visa sponsorship, note that in your application or confirm eligibility with the recruiter early in the screening process to avoid wasted time on either side.
Which visa types does Airbnb commonly use for Technician roles?
Airbnb sponsors Technician roles under H-1B, E-3, TN, F-1 OPT, and EB-2 or EB-3 immigrant visa categories. Australian citizens targeting these roles often pursue the E-3, which has no lottery. Canadian and Mexican nationals may qualify under TN. F-1 students frequently start on OPT before transitioning to an employer-sponsored petition.
What qualifications does Airbnb expect for Technician positions?
Airbnb's Technician roles typically require hands-on experience with AV systems, networking equipment, workplace technology, or physical infrastructure, depending on the team. A bachelor's degree in a related technical field strengthens your H-1B eligibility significantly. Relevant certifications, such as CompTIA or vendor-specific credentials, can supplement your application where formal degree alignment is less direct.
How do I find Airbnb Technician roles that match my visa category?
Migrate Mate lets you browse Airbnb's open Technician positions filtered by the visa types the company sponsors, so you can focus on roles where your status is a practical fit. Cross-referencing that with DOL's OFLC disclosure database gives you a clearer picture of which job categories Airbnb has historically supported through formal sponsorship filings.
