Technology powers everything you experience through Airbnb - from online interactions on our platform to offline connections in homes, on trips, and communities across the globe. This is why we are constantly developing and improving tools that address the unique needs of our multi-sided marketplace. Organized around Business Units and Platform teams, our Engineers and Data Scientists tackle challenges in search relevance, payments, fraud prevention, discrimination, growth and more! The Infrastructure team at Airbnb develops and runs the platform that powers our business. Our Infrastructure Platform spans across Cloud, Databases, Observability, Machine Learning and Developer Experience. In this talk, you’ll hear from several engineers who will give an overview of what it takes to power our platform along with sharing their background, how they came to work in their problem space, and what drives their passion about their projects. We’re scaling machine learning across the company to bring more personalization and provide a seamless end-to-end trip. That includes matching people with the most relevant listings, Experiences, and services around the world. Check out how we use Machine Learning to scale photo identification and categorization to ensure the best user experience for hosts and guests!
