Explore a new world of possibilities

HomeToGo is Europe’s leading vacation rental group with the vision of unlocking better stays. Our team is united by a passion for travel, driven by innovation and impact, and guided by open-minded leaders at every level. Our commitment to recognizing and empowering exceptional talent is the foundation of our growth. We are actively hiring candidates from all around the world, including sponsoring visas for Germany. An amazing journey of opportunity with an international team lies ahead - join us!

Your future contribution

Search and discovery are how nearly every traveler meets HomeToGo, and where most booking decisions are made. That happens across 30+ markets, 20+ brands, and 250M+ visits a year, so your work here reaches true global scale and real impact. 

You focus on business outcomes, not feature output. You are excited by how AI is reshaping product management, giving PMs more leverage, speed, and ownership than ever before. You know how to uncover insights yourself, prototype ideas rapidly, and turn ambiguity into shipped work. You move fast, test with real traveler behavior, and let the market, not internal debate, decide what matters.

How you’ll add value

  • Own what we build, what we kill, and what we never start in discovery, and back those calls with evidence

  • Partner with Engineering and Data Science on ranking and experimentation, and turn data into product decisions

  • Track AI development and prototype ideas yourself using AI tools (Claude, Cursor, v0, Figma Make) before a single sprint is planned

  • Make discovery adapt to intent and context, so search and ranking respond to why someone arrived, not only what they typed

  • Translate supply constraints and demand signals into a clear product thesis, with explicit trade-offs that solve real traveler problems

  • Balance traveler confidence, partner success, and long-term marketplace health

You’ll be successful in this role if you

  • Bring 10+ years of Product Management experience, including ownership of large, ambiguous problem spaces in Search, Discovery and Conversion within a high-volume B2C marketplace

  • Have led product where your decisions moved user outcomes and marketplace economics, and can show the impact in numbers (conversion, engagement, retention, revenue)

  • Are fluent in search, ranking and experimentation to partner with Engineering and Data Science and turn data into decisions

  • Follow AI development closely and build with AI tools yourself, adopting what works and skipping the hype

  • Move comfortably between strategy and the smallest detail, and make sharp calls with incomplete information

Note: We operate a rolling recruitment approach  - no deadlines, just opportunities. Should the volume of applications become too high, we might briefly remove this posting to provide our hiring team the space for thorough and unbiased review. The role will be made available again if we decide we’re still looking for the right fit.

What we offer

  • AI-first culture: Leverage a world-class AI ecosystem with Google Enterprise+, Slack AI, and SOTA model access via Copilot, Claude or LiteLLM. By using our custom agents for automation and knowledge management, you’ll become a first-class adopter of the AI workflows defining industry best practices.

  • Flexible hybrid work: Work remotely up to 50% of the year, including up to 63 days of "work from anywhere" within the EU and UK.*

  • Competitive compensation: Market-aligned salary plus stock options for eligible roles.

  • Generous time off: 27 vacation days to start, increasing with tenure to up to 32 days.

  • Dog-friendly offices: Bring your four-legged friend along – our offices welcome well-behaved dogs.

  • Relocation & visa support: Full visa sponsorship and relocation support for international hires joining our Berlin office.*

  • Growth & development: German classes, masterclasses, and cross-team mentoring.

  • Commuter & mobility perks: Monthly subsidy for the Deutschland-Ticket and tax-advantaged bike leasing via salary conversion.

  • Wellbeing & fitness: Mental health support resources and subsidized sports memberships.

  • Travel & lifestyle perks: Exclusive discounts via HomeToGo_Friends, Travel Industry Card deals, and 20% off Union Berlin fan gear.

  • Climate responsibility: We practice responsible stewardship daily and embed ESG at the heart of our operations, while collaborating with Plan A to stay accountable for our carbon footprint and environmental impact.
