At Match Group, our mission is to spark meaningful connections for every single person worldwide.
Across our portfolio of trusted brands, we help millions of people discover, connect, date, and build relationships in ways that reflect their identities, intentions, cultures, and communities.
We work together to solve complex problems at the intersection of human connection, behavioral science, network economics, AI and ML, safety, privacy, cultural nuance, loneliness, love, sex, and relationships.
As the world’s leading portfolio of dating products, Match Group has a unique opportunity to imagine what comes next for dating — including how emerging technologies can help people feel more understood, more intentional, and more confident as they connect.
Match Group is building an internal incubation focused on AI-powered dating experiences to redefine the category.
Dating is a deeply human experience, but many of today’s products were built before AI could understand context, intent, nuance, and feedback at scale.
We believe there is an opportunity to rethink parts of the dating experience from first principles, combining strong consumer product craft with AI-native systems that help people connect with more confidence, clarity, and trust.
This team will operate like a small startup inside Match Group.
We are moving from product hypothesis to prototype to pilot, with the goal of learning quickly from real users and identifying whether there is a new product opportunity that can scale.
We’re looking for a Founding Full Stack Engineer, AI Incubation to be the technical owner for this initiative.
This is a hands-on, high-ownership role for a Staff/Principal-level engineering leader who can build quickly, make strong technical decisions, and help turn an early product thesis into a working product.
You’ll work directly on the core experiences users rely on to discover, evaluate, and build meaningful connections.
You’ll identify where today’s dating experiences create friction, ambiguity, or low-quality outcomes, and rethink how AI can help create a more useful, trusted, and personalized experience.
You should be excited by zero-to-one product building: taking an ambiguous opportunity, defining the fastest path to learning, building the first version, putting it in front of users, and iterating based on real behavior.
