The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Airbnb is hiring a Python Developer in St. Joseph, MO.

• Role description

  We're opening a remote Python Developer role for an engineer fluent in Kotlin and allergic to undocumented surprises. Weigh it however you like — the math still lands at $67,000 - $98,000, remote hours, and a team at Airbnb worth joining.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Respond to on-call rotations and participate in incident postmortems
  • Document technical decisions, architecture, and APIs for the broader org
  • Translate Java metrics into the one chart Airbnb leadership checks each morning
  • Ship Google Cloud experiments fast, kill the losers, and double down on what sticks
  • Work closely with data teams to surface insights from production systems
  • Pair with cross-functional partners to scope and deliver remote projects
  • Translate the unfussy Active Listening outage into fixes that make the next St. Joseph launch dull
  • Own the mid-level Kotlin workstream that unblocks the rest of Airbnb's St. Joseph, MO roadmap

  What You'll Bring

  • A track record of no-ego delivery in a remote structure
  • Mid-level mastery of Facilitation, validated by people who'd hire you again
  • 3+ years building trust the slow, unglamorous way
  • Critical thinking skills and sound, independent judgment
  • Demonstrated wins in technology work somewhere near St. Joseph, MO

  Joining Airbnb means joining a performance-driven group of professionals who push technology forward from St. Joseph. Autonomy here comes with a partner: ask for help the moment you're stuck on Spring Boot.

  We deliver $67,000 - $98,000, comprehensive benefits, and a development culture where curiosity and feedback-hungry ambition are rewarded.

  Our talent team is live and responsive, screening new resumes as they land.
