Operations Engineer, BizTech

Airbnb’s BizTech Global Operations team manages production services across the corporate environment, focusing on observability, incident management, core operations, and automation. The Operations Engineer uses AI-enabled workflows, monitoring, and code to resolve operational issues, improve service reliability, and automate recurring work.

Responsibilities:

• Manage the ticket queue prioritizing and resolving requests while identifying recurring categories to automate or deflect
• Participate in a rotating on-call and incident response schedule, including weekends, troubleshooting and documenting issues in real time
• Build and maintain monitoring dashboards (Tableau, Superset, Grafana) that track service health, availability, and data quality, flagging gaps as they emerge
• Use AI-assisted tools (e.g., Claude, Copilot) to speed up triage, root-cause analysis, scripting, and documentation — while knowing when a problem needs hands-on judgment instead
• Write and maintain code in general-purpose languages (Python, Go, JavaScript, TypeScript, Bash) to automate operational workflows
• Partner with global stakeholder teams to drive issues to resolution

Requirements:

• 3+ years of experience with observability and metrics tooling (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, ElasticSearch)
• 3+ years working with data querying and pipelines (e.g., SQL, Airflow, Trino, SQS)
• Working knowledge of network fundamentals and hardware (e.g., Cisco, Palo Alto)
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code
• Hands-on experience with CI/CD and automation tooling (e.g., Jenkins, ArgoCD, GitHub Actions) across AWS, GCP, or Oracle Cloud
• Comfort working in ticket/workflow-driven environments using Jira and Confluence
• Experience supporting enterprise SaaS tools (e.g., Salesforce, Workday) and SSO/identity integration (e.g., Okta) is a plus
