The Art and Science Lab team powers some of the most well-known and widely used dating apps in the world. We’re looking for a Director of Product to lead a critical area within one of Match Group’s top brands. You’ll join a deeply cross-functional team and work closely with leaders across Product, Design, and Engineering. This is a high-impact role focused on building and scaling core user experiences that shape how millions of people connect every day.


When it comes to dating, the connection starts online, but the real magic happens once you meet in real life.  We think the same is true for creating the best platforms, so we work together IRL in Las Angeles or San Francisco offices three days a week. See you soon!

How You’ll Make an Impact:

  • Lead product strategy and execution for core surfaces within one of Match Group’s top apps.
  • Directly manage junior PMs.
  • Own the full product lifecycle—from helping shape vision with design to writing specs, collaborating with cross-functional partners, and shipping consistently.
  • Build trusted relationships with engineering and design partners, and guide the team through both day-to-day decision-making and longer-term planning.
  • Help define and evolve product development culture, with a focus on high-quality delivery and continuous learning.
  • Navigate technical and organizational complexity with pragmatism and clarity.
  • Uplevel product craft across the team, mentoring PMs and helping drive stronger fundamentals.
  • Contribute to company-wide priorities by aligning your work with shared business goals and collaborating across teams.

We Could Be a Match if You Have:

  • 8+ years of product management experience, including leadership roles in high-growth consumer tech.
  • A track record of building and scaling mobile-first products with strong user engagement and UX quality.
  • Experience leading through ambiguity and complexity—especially in high-stakes, high-visibility areas.
  • Excellent collaboration skills, particularly with engineering and design.
  • A strong product sense and the ability to advocate for users while balancing speed, quality, and tradeoffs.
  • A history of driving outcomes, not just output—with the data and stories to back it up.
  • Comfort working in a hybrid environment (3 days per week in-office in LA or SF).

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
