Sr Manager, Advanced Analytics, FSI

The Community You Will Join:

Airbnb is scaling how Fraud & Safety operations are measured, governed, and optimized globally. As Senior Manager, Analytics – Fraud & Safety Investigations, you will lead a team of analysts supporting human enforcement systems across content moderation, fraud review, and safety operations. You will own how operational performance is measured and improved—translating complex enforcement workflows into scalable KPI frameworks, experimentation roadmaps, and decision systems. This role sits at the intersection of Operations, Policy, Product, and Engineering, ensuring that human enforcement is efficient, consistent, and aligned with platform safety goals.

The Difference You Will Make:

This is a high-impact leadership role focused on enabling fast, data-driven operational decisions at global scale. This role isn’t just about reporting what happened; it’s about building the systems that help Airbnb see around corners. You will democratize data access, build always-on scenario simulators for fraud and safety, and turn incident impacts into seamless signals for continuous improvement. Your insights and systems will empower every stakeholder—from legal to operations, policy to product—to make bold, data-driven, and context-aware decisions in real time.
