About the role

  • At Tinder, Trust & Safety is foundational to what we do.
  • We are looking for a candidate who can synthesize fragmented threads and tasks, organize unstructured, ad-hoc work, and respond to rapidly changing priorities.
  • This is a hybrid role and requires in-office collaboration three days per week.

Responsibilities

  • Support end-to-end delivery for critical initiatives across safety product development, account integrity and identity, anti-abuse detection and mitigation, and moderation operations.
  • Own operational structure and hygiene by establishing consistent standards for tracking product roadmap initiatives, investigation findings, mitigation tasks, and infrastructure adjustments.
  • Partner with analysts, PMs, and engineers to coordinate the end-to-end lifecycle of abuse investigations-from initial detection through investigation, mitigation, and follow-ups-maintaining organizational visibility into progress and status.
  • Identify and coordinate inter-team dependencies while driving launch readiness and rollouts. You will own strategic alignment with key team members, including creating plans, managing risks, and refining communication models to ensure successful delivery.
  • Build and implement frameworks that drive operational excellence, systematically closing gaps and strengthening operational rhythms through subtle, high-impact refinements that don't disrupt the team's high-velocity culture.
  • Just as our users are better when they connect with others, so are we when we collaborate.
  • We have fun to unlock creativity, fuel innovation, and help us build better experiences for daters.

Requirements

  • 6+ years of experience in Technical Program Management, preferably within Trust & Safety, Integrity, or Security domains.
  • Hands-on experience with high-scale backend systems, distributed architectures, and managing complex technical dependencies.
  • Expert-level proficiency in managing cross-functional projects using tools like Jira.
  • The ability to synthesize complex technical risks and architecture decisions into actionable insights for less-technical stakeholders.
  • Expertise in agile methodologies and a deep understanding of software development best practices.

Nice to have

  • B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • Deep understanding of safety reporting, messaging, and account verification workflows in a mobile-first environment.
  • Familiarity with maintaining SLAs for mission-critical safety services.
  • Deep understanding of collaboration management tools such as JIRA, Confluence, Google Suite, and Figma.
  • Experience leveraging AI-powered tools (e.g., specialized LLMs) to automate routine program management tasks, improve documentation quality, and accelerate cross-functional communication.
  • As a full-time employee, you'll enjoy:
  • Even if you don't meet all the listed qualifications, we invite you to apply and show us how your skills could transfer.
  • Tinder is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace where we welcome people of all sexes, gender identities, races, ethnicities, disabilities, and other lived experiences.

Compensation

  • $160k-$175k
