You will help Hinge identify which cross-team needs should become shared platforms, drive adoption of the platforms we build, and raise the bar for backend engineering across the company.
This is a platform leadership role with broad cross-functional reach. You will contribute at the Platform group level, coordinate closely with adjacent pillars, and help shape a more coherent approach to shared product and backend capabilities across Hinge.
ResponsibilitiesLead the Core Services pillar strategy: define what we build, what we extract into shared platforms, what stays with product teams, and how the work ladders up to Hinge’s broader platform strategy..
Read LessMatch Group is a leading provider of dating products across the globe. Our portfolio includes Tinder, Match, Match-Meetic, Hinge, PlentyOfFish, The League, and others, each designed to spark meaningful connections for singles worldwide. Creating a sense of belonging doesn’t stop at our products — it’s the foundation of every team we hire.
When it comes to dating, the connection starts online, but the real magic happens once you meet in real life (IRL). We think the same is true for creating the best products, so we work together IRL in our Dallas office 3 days/week.
About the RoleAt Match Group, genuine connection is everything — and that starts with the people we hire.

You’ll operate as a true talent partner — bringing market insight, strategic thinking, and a strong candidate experience to every search. This is a high-impact, high-visibility role for a recruiter who takes pride in doing the work well, regardless of the function.
