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.

About the Role

As a Staff Recruiter, you'll lead hiring across our Product, Design, Engineering and Analytics organizations, partnering closely with senior leaders as a trusted talent advisor. You'll help shape hiring decisions by providing market insights, talent intelligence, and data-driven recommendations that enable thoughtful, long-term growth.

This is a highly visible, high-impact role for a recruiter who thinks beyond individual requisitions. You'll influence talent strategy, anticipate hiring needs before they emerge, and bring a strong point of view on how to attract, assess, and hire exceptional talent. Success in this role requires a blend of strategic thinking, business acumen, and the ability to build credibility with stakeholders at every level of the organization.

This role is based out of our Dallas office.

How you will make an impact

Talent Strategy & Executive Partnership
Partner with senior DEPA leaders to develop proactive hiring strategies aligned with long-term workforce plans. Translate market intelligence and hiring data into actionable recommendations, anticipate talent needs before they emerge, and challenge assumptions with data-backed perspectives.

Recruiting Excellence & Process Leadership
Lead end-to-end hiring for critical DEPA roles while continuously improving interview frameworks, assessment methodologies, and hiring processes. Drive calibration, elevate hiring rigor through structured interviewing, and leverage AI-enabled tools and analytics to improve efficiency and decision-making.

Market Intelligence & Talent Mapping
Maintain deep expertise across technical talent markets — tracking competitive landscapes, compensation trends, and emerging skill sets. Conduct talent mapping, execute sophisticated multi-channel sourcing strategies, and regularly brief leaders on market conditions to inform workforce planning.

Inclusive Hiring & Talent Attraction
Embed equitable, structured hiring practices throughout the recruiting lifecycle. Partner with talent communities and strategic sourcing channels to expand access to underrepresented talent and champion a consistent, values-driven candidate experience.

Talent Brand & Candidate Experience
Serve as a compelling ambassador for Match Group — articulating our mission, culture, and value proposition authentically. Build high-touch candidate relationships and partner cross-functionally to strengthen employer branding initiatives.

Offer Strategy & Stakeholder Management
Guide leaders through complex hiring decisions balancing candidate experience, market realities, and internal equity. Develop competitive offer strategies and build strong partnerships across TA, People, Compensation, and business leadership to drive alignment and achieve hiring goals.

What We’re Looking For

8+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience supporting DEPA organizations in high-growth environments, ideally within consumer technology, marketplace, or mobile-first companies

Demonstrated success influencing senior leaders through data, market expertise, and strategic consultation, including experience shaping hiring strategy across multiple technical functions and seniority levels

Strong sourcing, talent mapping, and passive candidate engagement capabilities

Expertise in structured interviewing, assessment design, and process optimization

Experience leveraging recruiting analytics to drive continuous improvement

Strong business acumen and stakeholder management skills

Familiarity with modern recruiting technologies, AI-enabled tools, and ATS platforms such as Ashby, Lever, or Workday

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 all of us 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.
