Job Description

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

We are hiring a Director of UX Research to lead research across our Dating Outcomes and Platform product areas. You will set the vision and strategy for how research informs product decisions across the core product experience at Hinge, focusing on some of Hinge's most complex research questions – understanding what's getting in the way of people forming real connections, and what Hinge needs to become to fundamentally shift how dating works online. The work is ambitious, high-stakes, and directly shapes how Hinge invests.

This is a senior leadership role with significant scope: you'll manage a team of researchers, own the research strategy and roadmap for Dating Outcomes and Platform, and operate as a strategic partner to group-level product, design, data science, and engineering leadership. This is an ideal role for a proven research leader who synthesizes user insights and data science findings into clear product strategy, builds the organizational conditions for teams to execute well, and thrives on ambiguous, high-impact problems.
