Senior Technical Brand & Content Manager

Join Airbnb as a Senior Technical Brand & Content Manager, where you will shape the narrative of our engineering work and enhance our brand presence in the tech community. You will own the editorial engine, find cross-team narratives, build our voices, manage our external presence, steward our open source presence, and prove the impact of your work. This role requires substantial experience in technical content, developer relations, engineering communications, or technical editorial, as well as technical fluency and measurement literacy.

• Sourcing topics from engineering teams, coaching engineer-authors, editing posts, and moving them through review.
• Identifying themes that connect work from multiple teams and publishing them as connected sets.
• Establishing Airbnb's canonical home on an owned domain, standing up missing surfaces, and deciding on social channels.

• Substantial experience in technical content, developer relations, engineering communications or technical editorial — including time spent working directly with engineers, not adjacent to them
• Influence without authority. Nothing you need is owned by you. You've built systems and incentives that got busy senior people to produce, rather than relying on persistence
• Judgment on risk. You've navigated legal and security review, and you know what shouldn't be published as well as what should
• Editorial judgment and hands-on craft. You can edit an engineer's draft into something sharper without flattening their voice, and you know the difference between a post that teaches something and one that announces something
• Program discipline. You've owned events, budgets and vendors end to end, and you're comfortable with the unglamorous half of the job
• Technical fluency. You don't need to write production code, but you need to hold your own in a systems design conversation, read a design doc, and judge whether a draft post says anything real. Credibility with staff engineers is the difference between this role working and not working
• Measurement literacy. You connect brand work to funnel outcomes, and you're straight about the limits of attribution rather than reaching for impressions
• Video or multi-format content experience
• Familiarity with AI and ML engineering topics, and with academic or research communications
• Experience helping a senior executive build a public technical presence
• Experience running or fixing an open source program
• Experience migrating a technical publication between platforms, including the SEO and redirect work
