Salary Range: 47 to 47 (Currency: USD) (Pay period: per-hour-wage)

Our Mission

As humans, there are few things more exciting than meeting someone new. At Tinder, we’re inspired by the challenge of keeping the magic of human connection alive. With tens of millions of users, hundreds of millions of downloads, 2+ billion swipes per day, 20+ million matches per day, and a presence in 190+ countries, our reach is expansive—and rapidly growing. 

We work together to solve complex problems. Behind the simplicity of every match, we think deeply about human relationships, behavioral science, network economics, AI and ML, online and real-world safety, cultural nuances, loneliness, love, sex, and more.

Our Values

• Take the Lead: We don't ghost our work or each other. Just as users don't leave their matches hanging, we don't let each other down.
• Move Fast: We have a bias for action and urgency. Something that could be done tomorrow would be better if done today.
• Better Together: We keep connection at the heart of dating and at the heart of how we work. Just as our users are better when they connect with others, so are we when we collaborate.
• Real Talk: We say the hard thing the human way. Just as we ask our users to behave with kindness and candor in our community, we expect Team Tinder to do the same.
• Safety First: We act with integrity, transparency, and consistency so people feel safe—whether they're swiping, matching, or working alongside us.
• Spark Fun: We have fun to unlock creativity, fuel innovation, and help us build better experiences for daters.

What you'll do:

• Collaborate with product designers on new product development and see your ideas reflected in a global brand.
• Create UX designs, prototypes, and UI mockups — including wireframes, flowcharts, and components.
• Participate in product design sprints and co-create solutions with cross-functional partners from Engineering, Product, Marketing, and Data Science.
• Contribute to user research and usability testing to inform design decisions and product strategy.
• Help design components for Tinder’s design system and experiment with new design patterns.
• Brainstorm and ideate product experiences that bring Tinder’s mission and values to life.
• Present your design work for feedback in design critiques and cross-functional reviews.

What we're looking for:

• A student currently enrolled in university/college program studying Design, Product Design, UX, or HCI.
• Experience in product design, UI design, and/or UX design.
• Strong product instincts and UX skills. 
• Visual design, layout, and typography skills.
• An eye for simplicity and visual harmony.
• Detail-oriented and can manage multiple competing priorities.
• Software proficiency: Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, Prototyping tools (Figma, Protopie, Adobe XD, Invision, or Principle).
• Curiosity about how design decisions impact user behavior and business outcomes.
• Comfort working in ambiguity and iterating quickly.
• An eagerness to learn from feedback and collaborate in a diverse, global team.
