With tens of millions of users across the globe, we’ve become the most trusted way to find a relationship, for all.

- Proven record of 0–1 discovery and launches that drove measurable outcomes.
- Experience working with Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence-powered systems to improve user experiences.
- Strength in hypothesis-driven experimentation and comfort making decisions with incomplete data.
- Ability to lead complex, multi-quarter initiatives with clarity, momentum, and alignment.
- Strong intuition for user experience, storytelling, and emotional design.

Frequently Asked Questions
You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers
Apply for this roleWhat does Hinge’s relationship with Match Group mean?
What does Hinge’s relationship with Match Group mean?
In early 2019, Hinge was fully acquired by Match Group. Founder and CEO, Justin McLeod, still leads an executive team that sets the overall mission and vision for Hinge as well as our working norms, policies and day-to-day priorities. While certain corporate functions are managed at the MG portfolio level, working for Hinge is intentionally a unique experience.
TLDR: We get the best of both worlds! Hinge still gets to operate like a small company, and we have the stability and resources of a much larger legacy company that has stood the test of time.
I’ve never used Hinge before. Am I still a fit for this role?
I’ve never used Hinge before. Am I still a fit for this role?
Of course! Having used Hinge or any other dating app is definitely not a requirement. That being said, we are looking for team members who genuinely believe our product can and will help people all over the world connect. Our team is passionate about the dating industry and we hope you’ll be passionate about it too!
What requirements are there for in-office and hybrid roles?
What requirements are there for in-office and hybrid roles?
Hybrid roles at Hinge are based in NYC and require weekly presence in our Meatpacking District office. The team values in-person collaboration and we hope to see everyone in our beautiful office space three days a week starting Fall of 2023. Each team will have some freedom to determine what works best for them, but we generally aim for consistent in-office days to maximize the opportunity to collaborate.
TLDR: Beautiful working spaces, lots of plants, even more food and snacks, dog friendly - 3 days a week :)
