About the Role

<div class="content-intro"><p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">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.</span></p></div><p><strong>The Community You Will Join:&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>At Airbnb, quality is not a gate — it’s a platform.</strong></p> <p>The Quality Platform team is reimagining how software is built, tested, and shipped at scale. We sit at the intersection of <strong>Infrastructure, Developer Experience, and Applied AI</strong>, building the systems that enable thousands of engineers across Airbnb to ship high-quality software with speed and total confidence. <strong>We don’t just find bugs — we build the infrastructure that prevents them.</strong></p> <p>As a cornerstone of Airbnb’s <strong>Engineering Hub in Brazil</strong>, this team plays a key role in expanding our global platform capabilities while building a high-impact local engineering presence. You will join at a defining moment, helping to shape both the technical direction of the platform and the culture of the Brazil hub.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>The Difference You Will Make:</strong></p> <p>As an Engineering Manager, you will lead the vision and execution of Airbnb’s <strong>Full-Cycle Testing Platform.</strong>Your mission is to move beyond traditional testing silos by building a comprehensive suite of tools that support the entire development lifecycle—from <strong>"Shift-Left"</strong> early validation and unit testing to high-scale, distributed <strong>End-to-End (E2E) automation.</strong></p> <p>You will be a technical leader and a people leader, serving as a <strong>force multiplier</strong> for engineering teams acro
