About the Role

Hinge is hiring a Lead Product Manager. As a member of the Platform team, you will build the systems, tooling, and policies that enable smarter product development 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 product platform. 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 strategy, roadmap, and success metrics for core platform systems that support multiple product teams across Hinge.

  • Partner with Design and Engineering to evolve shared components, patterns, and tooling that enable consistent, high-quality experiences across platforms.

  • Lead accessibility initiatives that ensure Hinge meets and exceeds accessibility standards, embedding inclusive design principles into product development workflows.

  • Own governance, standards, and best practices across platform systems, making them easy to adopt, measure, and maintain at scale.

  • Partner with Product, Engineering, Legal, and cross-functional teams to manage compliance, policy, and operational considerations for platform systems.

  • Identify opportunities to improve team velocity through better tooling, documentation, and platform enablement.

  • 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

  • 8+ years of product management experience, including 3+ years in platform, infrastructure, or enablement-focused roles.

  • Proven track record of owning cross-functional systems or platforms that support multiple product teams.

  • Experience building or scaling internal platforms, developer tools, or shared infrastructure used by multiple teams.

  • 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.

  • Fluency with AI tools and a track record of identifying opportunities to embed AI capabilities into platform systems and team workflows.

  • Experience driving AI enablement across cross-functional organizations or helping teams adopt, experiment with, and scale AI-powered tooling effectively.

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.
