Principal, Legal AI Engineering

About the role

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 Role

Match Group runs some of the most-used apps in the world, including Tinder, Hinge, Match, OkCupid, and Plenty of Fish, for tens of millions of people in 170+ countries. That makes our legal work unusually interesting: privacy for some of the most personal data people share, trust and safety at global scale, AI features shipping into consumer products, and regulation that keeps moving.

This role sits at the intersection of legal practice and applied AI, closer to an in-house R&D function than a traditional legal team role. It's for a tech-forward builder, an engineer or product person, who can find where AI can do legal work that humans do today (or work humans can't do at scale), prototype and ship tools and agents to handle it, and iterate with lawyers in the loop until those tools are part of how the function runs.

This is about applying AI to the substance of legal work: the research, analysis, judgment calls, contract review, and regulatory tracking that lawyers do every day. It is not about optimizing existing processes or rolling out off-the-shelf legal tech. You'll build things that didn't exist before, prototype quickly, evaluate rigorously, and ship what works.

You'll serve brands across Match Group's portfolio (Tinder, Hinge, Match, OkCupid, Plenty of Fish, and others) and work with Legal leadership and attorneys as your domain experts and end users. You'll partner with engineering, product, and other technical teams where deeper infrastructure is needed. You'll have a mandate to pick where to start, prove value, and scale what works across brands.
