About Hinge
Hinge is the dating app designed to be deleted. In today’s digital world, singles are so focused on sending likes and looking through profiles that they’re not actually building meaningful connections and going on dates. Hinge is on a mission to change that by designing the most effective app experience. On Hinge, there are no rules, timers, or games. Instead, you’ll have unique conversations over the text, photos, and audio you’ve shared on your profile. And it’s resonating with daters. Hinge was the fastest-growing dating app in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia in 2019 and 2020.
Role Overview
As the Director of AI Platform Engineering at Hinge, you will lead and expand our Artificial Intelligence (AI) Platform team.

You will make a meaningful difference in Hinge users' lives by driving the technology that brings them together.
