- Define and own Hinge’s approach to scalable enforcement guidance, partnering with Engineering, Product, Legal, and Ops to ensure readiness across all surfaces and systems.
- Contribute to responsible AI governance, ensuring automated enforcement aligns with platform principles and mitigates risk.
- Operate as the primary Hinge liaison to our parent company on policy development and implementation, anticipating upstream changes and shaping platform-level direction on emerging policy areas.
- Analyze enforcement, product, and market data to guide policy and enforcement guidance refinement and proactively flag risk areas or emerging integrity challenges.
- Serve as a mentor (future potential to manage and coach) and strategic resource to policy peers, helping shape team-wide workflows, decision frameworks, and quality standards.
- Translate complex regulatory frameworks, platform guidance, and ethical questions into actionable decisions that scale across manual and automated moderation systems.
What We’re Looking For
- 8+ years of experience in trust & safety, platform policy, legal, compliance, or regulatory advisory roles—ideally within a high-scale consumer technology environment.
- Proven track record leading policy design and/or implementation across cross-functional teams and/or platforms.
- Deep understanding of the global digital policy landscape, with the ability to translate abstract legal or ethical frameworks into user-appropriate guidance.
- Experience operationalizing policy across a variety of enforcement systems, including those using machine learning or automation.
- Strong data fluency: comfortable using enforcement, user behavior, or legal trend data to inform decisions and drive policy iteration.
- Demonstrated ability to lead through influence—aligning teams and executives around principled, strategic decisions in ambiguous contexts.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills; adept at driving clarity in high-stakes conversations across diverse audiences.

What We Do
In today’s digital world, singles are so focused on sending likes and looking through profiles that they’re not actually building meaningful connections and going on dates. Hinge is on a mission to change that by designing the most effective app experience. We want to create a less lonely world by inspiring intimate, in-person connections. Relationships are at the core of everything we do. And not just the romantic kind. We can't accomplish really hard things alone - so we make great relationships the foundation of our teamwork.
We believe these three core values are what it takes to build those great relationships: Authenticity, we share - never hide - our words, actions, and intentions. Courage, breakthroughs require a willingness to take risks and embrace lofty goals and tough challenges. Empathy, we're all humans first. So we deeply consider the perspectives of others, listen openly, and speak with care.
Why Work With Us
We're mission-driven. While most apps think about boosting sessions and time on app, we think strategically about meaningful end results (dates and relationships).
We're culture-first. We believe in great people over process. Decisions are pushed to the front lines, with feedback and coaching provided by our leaders.
