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 seeking a versatile Data Scientist to join our Recommendations team, working at the heart of the algorithms that shape who millions of people see, every day. 
 

You'll partner closely with Product Managers, ML Engineers, Data Scientists, Engineering, and User Research, to evaluate and improve our models, using a mix of rigorous experimentation and causal analysis, to uncover insights, design innovative solutions, and influence strategic decisions. Your work will directly shape whether the recommendations we show lead to real, meaningful connections, informing not just what we build, but how we know it's working.
 
 

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with a cross-functional team of Product Managers, ML engineers, Data Scientists, Engineering, and User Research to develop and iterate on product features and strategy

  • Translate product objectives to data science problems and vice versa

  • Apply statistical inference to draw rigorous conclusions from data, especially through designing and analyzing A/B tests and working on insights that drive product strategy

  • Dig into user behavior through exploratory analysis to surface insights product teams wouldn't otherwise see

  • Collaborate with ML engineers to evaluate, improve, and monitor production models

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years of experience as data scientist, ideally at a consumer-facing (D2C) company

  • Experience designing and analyzing experiments

  • Strong working knowledge of SQL and Python (R is acceptable but we use Python at Hinge)

  • Strong knowledge of statistics, with a conceptual understanding of ML and curiosity to keep learning

  • Clear communication skills

  • Comfortable balancing rigor with practicality

  • Excellent collaboration skills and a track record of cross-functional influence

  • Deep sense of intellectual curiosity!

As a member of our team, you’ll enjoy:

401(k) Matching: We match 100% of the first 10% of pre-tax 401(k) contributions you make, up to a maximum of $10,000 per year.

Professional Growth: Get an annual Learning & Development stipend once you’ve been with us for three months. You also get free access to Udemy, an online learning and teaching marketplace with over 6000 courses, starting your first day.

Parental Leave & Planning: When you become a new parent, you’re eligible for 100% paid parental leave (20 paid weeks for both birth and non-birth parents.)

Fertility Support: You’ll get easy access to fertility care through Carrot, from basic treatments to fertility preservation. We also provide a stipend towards fertility preservation. You and your spouse/domestic partner are both eligible.

Date Stipend: All Hinge employees receive a $100 monthly stipend for epic dates– Romantic or otherwise. Hinge Premium is also free for employees and their loved ones.

ERGs: We have eight Employee Resource Groups (ERGs)—Asian, Unapologetic, Disability, LGBTQIA+, Raices, Women/Nonbinary, Parents —that hold regular meetings, host events, and provide dedicated support to the organization & its community.

At Hinge, our core values are…

Authenticity: We share, never hide, our words, actions and intentions.

Courage: We embrace lofty goals and tough challenges.

Empathy: We deeply consider the perspective of others.

Diversity inspires innovation

Hinge is an equal-opportunity employer. We value diversity at our company and do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
