Kindred is a members-only home swapping platform that unlocks the ability to live a travel-rich lifestyle through the power of community. By exchanging primary residences with trusted peers, renters and owners alike can match with Kindred spirits and explore new destinations without breaking the bank.

Kindred is revolutionizing the “third option” of travel accommodation, compared to short-term rentals and hotels. Since launching in 2022, Kindred has grown to a global community of 300,000 members across 150+ cities and puts home swapping on the map as a radically more affordable, responsible, and connected way to travel.

To support that momentum, Kindred has raised over $150M in capital from some of the most credible investors in Silicon Valley, including Index Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz, New Enterprise Associates, Bessemer Venture Partners, Caffeinated Capital, Elad Gil, and founders of companies like Opendoor, Figma, ClassPass, and more.

Kindred’s co-founders are proven leaders from the early team at Opendoor ($15B+ exit), who have each built and scaled products that today generate $1B+ annual revenue combined.

We’re looking for the world’s top builders, executors, and believers to help us make travel more meaningful.

The Role

This Staff PM role sits at the intersection of behavioral product design, marketplace economics, and growth. You'll work directly with your team to understand what drives — and blocks — members from hosting their homes, and build the product systems that unlock supply at scale. This means going deep on one of the most nuanced challenges in our marketplace: building hosting habits in members who've never considered opening their home to others.

While this role begins with a focused mandate on hosting supply and inventory, Kindred PMs grow with the company. We expect the right person to develop deep expertise here and, over time, may take on other high-priority product focus areas as our team and roadmap evolve.

What You'll Do

• Own the supply-side product experience — driving members to host their homes, add availability, and build lasting hosting habits

• Design product systems that make hosting feel natural, trustworthy, and rewarding — from first home setup all the way to becoming a recurring host

• Go deep on the behavioral and economic drivers of hosting: who hosts, why they host, why they stop, and what moves the needle

• Use AI prototyping tools and rapid experimentation to move fast — build confidence cheaply before committing to big bets

• Rigorously prioritize the highest-leverage supply levers using both quantitative analysis and first principles thinking about human behavior

• Collaborate closely with marketing, data science, design, and operations to drive systemic improvements in hosting supply

• Champion the host's perspective in every product decision — developing a true, empathetic understanding of what it's like to host your personal home

You May Be a Right Fit If You

• Have 8+ years of product management experience, with meaningful time in consumer-facing, high-growth products

• Have experience building marketplace or supply-constrained products — you've thought deeply about what drives supply-side behavior and how to move it systematically

• Go deep on data: comfortable with funnel analysis, cohort studies, behavioral analysis, and designing new metrics from scratch

• Are a first principles thinker — you reason from the ground up about what drives human behavior, rather than jumping to analogies or conventional solutions

• Are scrappy and resourceful — comfortable with AI tools, prototyping tools, and lightweight experiments to build and test hypotheses quickly

• Operate in ambiguity with a bias for action — you move fast and make good calls with incomplete information

• Have a founder mindset — proactive, high-ownership, not above rolling up your sleeves

• Bonus: experience designing incentive structures, behavioral nudges, or habit loops in consumer products
