Job Description

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.

Program Duration

The internship program will run from June 1 through August 28, 2026.

Where you’ll work

This is a hybrid role that requires in-office collaboration three days per week in Palo Alto, California.

About the Role

The Tinder ML team drives impact across nearly every core domain of the product — from Recommendations and Trust & Safety to Profile, Chat, Growth, and Revenue. Our mission is to apply machine learning to enhance user experiences, foster trust, and accelerate business growth across Tinder’s ecosystem.
