Director of AI, Dating Outcomes

Hinge is the dating app designed to be deleted In today's digital world, finding genuine relationships is tougher than ever. At Hinge, we’re on a mission to inspire intimate connection to create a less lonely world. We’re obsessed with understanding our users’ behaviors to help them find love, and our success is defined by one simple metric– setting up great dates. With millions of users across the globe, we’ve become the most trusted way to find a relationship, for all. About the Role   Most consumer apps treat your attention as the product, optimizing every recommendation and notification to keep you scrolling. Hinge made the opposite bet: our mission is to get people off the app, out on a date, and eventually to delete us entirely. That is not a tagline. It is the actual constraint every AI system we build has to solve against.   The Director of AI, Dating Outcomes owns the hardest version of that problem. You will lead the AI systems at the core of how Hinge connects people: the recommendation engine, the ranking models, and the generative capabilities that help users put their best selves forward. The goal is not engagement, it is outcomes: fewer ratings per exchange, higher quality matches, and more people finding the person they were looking for. Because Hinge does not sell ads or user data, being exceptional at this is our business model. Reporting to the VP of AI, you will set the long-term AI roadmap for one of the company's most influential product areas and build the teams that bring it to life. The problems sit at the intersection of human behavior, sparse real-world signals, and a two-sided ecosystem of people who are not interchangeable, a different kind of ML challenge than most people in this industry have had the chance to work on.
