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

Hinge is hiring a Lead Product Manager to drive the strategy and execution of two of our most critical platform capabilities: Notifications and Experimentation. As a member of the Platform team, you will build the systems, tooling, and policies that enable smarter communication and faster learning across every product at Hinge. This role offers a unique opportunity to own horizontal infrastructure that directly supports company-wide growth, retention, and product quality.

You’ll collaborate closely with Engineering, Product Marketing, Trust & Safety, and cross-functional product teams to evolve the core foundations of our messaging and experimentation platforms. This is an ideal role for a systems thinker who is comfortable with both technical depth and UX-level decisions—and who thrives in aligning infrastructure with user value.

Responsibilities

• Define the long-term roadmap and architecture for Hinge’s notification and experimentation platforms, aligning infrastructure investments with company priorities.
• Build messaging systems that support relevant, timely, and safe user communication, improving user retention through personalization, targeting, and cross-channel coordination.
• Lead internal tooling efforts that enable rapid, responsible experimentation—including feature flagging, targeting, metrics integration, and governance.
• Partner with Product Marketing, Trust & Safety, and Growth teams to manage compliance, policy, and global delivery considerations for communication systems.
• Set and uphold policies for experimentation design and success criteria that enable high-integrity learning across teams.
• Serve as a trusted platform leader and collaborator to product managers, marketers, engineers, and executives, clearly communicating roadmaps, rationale, and tradeoffs.

What We're Looking For

• 7+ years of product management experience, including 2+ years in platform, infrastructure, or enablement-focused roles.
• Proven track record of owning complex backend or cross-functional platforms at scale.
• Experience leading notification infrastructure (e.g., push systems, CRM tooling) or experimentation platforms (e.g., internal A/B testing, analytics integrations).
• Familiarity with compliance, legal, and data privacy considerations in global messaging and experimentation.
• Strong technical fluency with the ability to translate between engineering detail and business value.
• Excellent product judgment with a bias toward scalable, maintainable systems.
• A consistent track record of cross-functional collaboration with engineering, data science, marketing, and design.
• A systems-oriented communicator who operates with high autonomy and a deep belief in Hinge’s mission to make dating more intentional—and in the platform foundations that enable that mission to scale.
