Our real innovation is not allowing people to book a home; it’s designing a framework to allow millions of people to trust one another. Trust is the real energy source that drives Airbnb… ”
Brian Chesky, Airbnb Co-Founder & CEO (2019)
Data science is the engine behind Airbnb's most impactful decisions. The Platform Data Science team accelerates product evolution and business outcomes by combining scientific rigor with deep domain expertise, spanning experimentation, machine learning, causal inference and scalable intelligence.
We partner closely with product, engineering, policy, and operations teams across Trust to detect and defend against the adversarial behavior that threatens guest and host trust: fraudulent listings and fake inventory, review and content manipulation, account takeover, and other bad-actor activity on the platform. Whether measuring the impact of a new listing integrity defense, modeling risk at the listing or account level, or evaluating the effectiveness of an enforcement policy, our work helps guests and hosts experience an Airbnb that is safer, smarter and more personalized.
