Hinge is the dating app designed to be deleted

In today's digital world, finding genuine relationships is tougher than ever. At Hinge, we’re on a mission to inspire intimate connection to create a less lonely world. We’re obsessed with understanding our users’ behaviors to help them find love, and our success is defined by one simple metric– setting up great dates. With millions of users across the globe, we’ve become the most trusted way to find a relationship, for all.

About the Role

We're looking for an Engineering Manager to lead our Cloud Foundation team — the engineers responsible for AWS infrastructure, networking, IaC, and Kubernetes foundations that every Hinge product team builds on.

You'll directly manage the 5-person Cloud Foundation team and serve as the infrastructure discipline manager for ~3 Platform ICs embedded across other Platform teams, roughly 8 reports in total. As a member of the Platform leadership team, you'll approach infrastructure like a product — understanding the needs of your internal customers, shaping a roadmap that balances reliability and velocity, investing in the engineers behind the work, and staying close enough to the details to be a credible voice in design reviews and on-call retros.

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who can balance team strategy and execution — growing a high-performing team while staying grounded in the technical work that drives developer velocity, reliability, and cost efficiency.

Define and deliver the Cloud Foundation roadmap, translating strategy into measurable outcomes.

Lead cloud infrastructure initiatives focused on reliability, scalability, security, and cost management.

Build tools and automation that make our systems more consistent, observable, and self-service.

Partner with product engineering teams to improve developer velocity and experience.

Contribute to code reviews, architecture discussions, and platform documentation.

Mentor engineers and foster a culture of technical excellence, accountability, inclusion, and autonomy grounded in clarity and trust.

7+ years in software engineering, including 2+ years in management.

Deep technical background in cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred), distributed systems, or developer platforms.

Proven success leading automation, reliability, and cost-efficiency efforts at scale.

Strong communication and collaboration skills; thrives in cross-functional environments.

Passion for developer experience and building tools that make engineers more productive.
