Lead Product Designer - Accessibility

📋 Description

• Hinge is the dating app designed to be deleted

• 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 finding relationships. Hinge is on a mission to change that by designing the most effective app experience. On Hinge, there are no rules, timers, or games. Instead, you’ll have unique conversations over the text, photos, and audio you’ve shared on your profile. And it’s resonating with daters. Currently we’re setting up a date every three seconds.

• Hinge is seeking a Lead Product Designer, Accessibility to ensure our app is fully inclusive and accessible to all users. You’ll play a key role in embedding accessibility into the foundation of our design practices, ensuring every feature is accessible-by-design while addressing existing gaps. Partnering closely with cross-functional teams, you’ll guide efforts to create a seamless, intuitive experience for users with diverse needs. This role directly aligns with our mission of fostering real-life connections and helping users “delete us.”
