The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Airbnb is hiring a Safety Engineer in Aberdeen, SD.

• Role description

  We're opening a temporary Safety Engineer role for an engineer fluent in GitLab CI and allergic to undocumented surprises. Stack the numbers: $49,000 - $81,000, 1 years required, temporary schedule, and a junior seat that grows as fast as you do.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Write clean, well-tested code that scales with Airbnb's growing user base
  • Slice the entrepreneurial technology monolith into Jenkins services Aberdeen, SD can deploy alone
  • Troubleshoot and resolve production incidents across Docker-based applications
  • Profile GitHub Actions memory use and chase down the leaks crashing Aberdeen nodes
  • Lead the Communication migration that finally retires Airbnb's flexible legacy stack
  • Watch GitLab CI error budgets and pump the brakes before Aberdeen, SD burns through them

  What You'll Bring

  • Ability to learn new technology systems quickly and apply them effectively
  • A collaborator who makes the junior review feel less like an exam
  • Demonstrated knack for making the heads-down-and-happy feel manageable
  • Proven Docker results, ideally seasoned in Aberdeen, SD

  Where most technology vendors automate the easy parts, Airbnb tackles the hard ones, from an unhurried headquarters in Aberdeen, SD. Slack threads here stay civil because we critique the GitLab CI work, not the human behind it.

  Joining us means $49,000 - $81,000, a clear promotion ladder, paid family leave, and mentors invested in your success.
