The Ecosystem Health team protects our users and helps ensure a safe, authentic experience across Grindr. We build products and systems that safeguard the integrity of user accounts and activity, tackling spam, fake accounts, fraud, illegal activities, and harmful conduct while preserving the privacy, discretion, and freedom of our community values.

This is a hybrid product/program management role, where you'll drive the execution of complex Ecosystem Health programs across Product, Engineering, Data Science, Legal, Privacy, and Customer Experience. You'll turn priorities into clear plans, establish the systems that keep teams aligned, surface risks early, and unblock the work required to improve user safety and platform integrity.

At Grindr, we operate in Grindr Mode. Moderately hardcore day to day, truly hardcore when it counts. It’s about doing great work without burning out. Outcomes over outputs. Smart, driven people who raise your bar, with room to live full lives.

This is a hybrid role based in our New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, or Chicago office and will require you to be in person Tuesdays and Thursdays.
