Our Mission
Launched in 2012, Tinder revolutionized how people meet, growing from 1 match to one billion matches in just two years. This rapid growth demonstrates its ability to fulfill a fundamental human need: real connection. Today, the app has been downloaded over 630 million times, leading to over 97 billion matches, serving approximately 50 million users per month in 190 countries and 45+ languages - a scale unmatched by any other app in the category. In 2024, Tinder won four Effie Awards for its first-ever global brand campaign, "It Starts with a Swipe" "
Our Values
One Team, One Dream
We work hand-in-hand, building Tinder for our members. We succeed together when we work collaboratively across functions, teams, and time zones, and think outside the box to achieve our company vision and mission.
Own It
We take accountability and strive to make a positive impact in all aspects of our business, through ownership, innovation, and a commitment to excellence.
Never Stop Learning
We cultivate a culture where it's safe to take risks. We seek out input, share honest feedback, celebrate our wins, and learn from our mistakes in order to continue improving.
Spark Solutions
We're problem solvers, focusing on how to best move forward when faced with obstacles. We don't dwell on the past or on the issues at hand, but instead look at how to stay agile and overcome hurdles to achieve our goals.
Embrace Our Differences
We are intentional about building a workplace that reflects the rich diversity of our members. By leveraging different perspectives and other ways of thinking, we build better experiences for our members and our team.
At Tinder, we are passionate about building software to bring our growing global user base one swipe closer to a new adventure! We empower all team members to contribute solutions - this is not a top-down organization. We feel it is important to learn from one another and grow as a team.
As a Staff Android engineer at Tinder, you will have an outsized impact and ownership of the most visible aspects of the Tinder App. We are deeply invested in challenging norms, constantly improving architecture design, exploring emergent tech and ideas, and leveraging new technologies in interesting ways to deliver an app that is widely known the world over.
The team: We are building a new, focused team within Tinder that feels a lot like a startup-nimble, efficient, and centered on building innovative features for the next generation of users. This role comes with a lot of ownership and visibility, as you'd be the founding Android engineer on the team and shape how we build the product, define architecture, and work closely with teams across the company to bring new ideas to life. You should be product- and user-oriented, and comfortable with autonomy and ambiguity.
Where you'll work: This is a hybrid role and requires in-office collaboration three times per week. This role is based out of our New York, NY office.
As a Staff Android Engineer, you will have the opportunity to:Lead the architecture design and implementation of consumer-facing features in the Tinder app Build compelling new in-app experiences that will reach tens of millions of users globally Coordinate with product and design teams and influence the roadmap and product development of the Tinder app and services Create and maintain internal shared frameworks and libraries Mentor, collaborate, and learn with innovative and passionate team members
Minimum Qualifications:8+ years of professional experience developing native Android applications Extensive experience building applications using Kotlin Strong software design skills, including a deep understanding of design patterns (e.g., Clean / MVVM / MVP, and the benefits of each) and dependency injection Understanding of design guidelines (i.e. you know how to be a good Android citizen while maintaining a strong unique brand identity) Clear communication style within a collaborative team environment The ability to combine good judgment, empathy, and technical skills
