Job description

Know where you belong! Match Group is a leading provider of dating products across the globe. Our portfolio includes Tinder, Hinge, Match, Meetic, PlentyOfFish, OkCupid, The League, HER, and others, each designed to spark meaningful connections for singles worldwide. Creating a sense of belonging doesn’t stop at our products - it’s the foundation of every team we hire.

When it comes to dating, the connection starts online, but the real magic happens once you meet in real life (IRL). We think the same is true for creating the best platforms, so we work together IRL 3 days/week.

The Match Group Core Platform team is seeking a Staff Product Manager to lead a critical platform capability that powers Trust & Safety, Identity, and MAU growth across Match Group’s global portfolio of brands; including Tinder, Hinge, Match.com, Plenty of Fish and others.

The Staff PM will own the product strategy and execution for Match Group’s Signals Platform — a portfolio-wide capability that turns behavioral, identity, risk, trust, safety, and enforcement data into actionable signals for brands and Match Group central teams. These signals help power both Trust & Safety outcomes, such as fraud and abuse reduction, and business outcomes, such as user quality, authenticity, and MAU growth.

This is a highly cross-functional individual contributor role. The Staff PM will partner closely with engineering, data science, Trust & Safety, compliance, operations, and brand identity teams to define the platform vision, prioritize the highest-impact investments, drive adoption, and ensure signals are governed, measurable, and scalable across the portfolio. This role will help shape the future of how Match Group detects risk, supports enforcement workflows, improves user quality and member experiences, and scales platform capabilities globally.

What You'll Do

• Define and execute the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for Match Group’s Signals Platform.
• Build a portfolio-wide platform that standardizes, governs, and distributes behavioral, identity, trust, safety, and enforcement signals.
• Create APIs, frameworks, data products, and adoption patterns that make signals easy for brands and central teams to discover, trust, integrate, and use.
• Partner with engineering and data science to evaluate signal quality, reliability, performance, drift, and business impact.
• Establish clear success metrics for the Signals Platform, including adoption, signal usage, fraud and abuse reduction, enforcement quality, operational efficiency, user quality, and MAU impact.
• Identify opportunities to use AI and ML to improve signal discovery, signal quality, anomaly detection, risk scoring, and decision support.
• Drive prioritization across competing signal needs, balancing brand-specific flexibility with portfolio-wide consistency and governance.

What We're Looking For:

• Product leadership: 8+ years of product management experience, with demonstrated ownership of complex, technical, cross-functional products at Staff, Lead, or equivalent scope.
• Platform mindset: Proven ability to build shared services, data products, APIs, or platform capabilities used by multiple internal customers, business units, or brands.
• Trust & Safety, identity, risk, or data product experience: Background in Trust & Safety, fraud, abuse detection, identity, authenticity, compliance tooling, ML/data platforms, or risk systems preferred.
• Technical fluency: Comfort working with data infrastructure, APIs, ML models, signals, risk scoring, data quality, observability, and platform architecture concepts.
• AI fluency: Ability to identify practical AI use cases, evaluate AI-supported product opportunities, and partner with technical teams to build responsible, measurable AI-enabled capabilities.
• Strategic and execution balance: Ability to set a clear long-term vision while driving near-term delivery, adoption, and measurable business outcomes.
• Cross-functional influence: Strong ability to influence without direct authority across engineering, data science, operations, compliance, legal, brand product teams, and senior stakeholders.
• Customer orientation: Experience running discovery with internal customers, translating user and operational needs into product strategy, and building products that teams actively adopt.
• Analytical rigor: Strong ability to define success metrics, analyze performance, evaluate tradeoffs, and communicate product impact through data.
• Operational discipline: Ability to create durable product operating models, including intake, prioritization, roadmap planning, documentation, launch readiness, adoption tracking, and ongoing performance monitoring.
• Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to simplify complex technical topics for executive, operational, and brand audiences.
