About the Team
Seoul Studios is Tinder's Seoul-based product studio, chartered to build breakthrough innovations in how people meet and connect. We move fast — incubating new, interactive dating experiences, running rapid experiments, and shipping features that raise engagement and improve reconsideration for members around the world.
Based in Seoul, the pod is a self-contained, cross-functional team of iOS, Android, web, and backend engineers working shoulder to shoulder with Product, Design, and Data, and partnering with teams across Seoul and our U.S. headquarters to take ideas from early experiment to global scale.
Tinder is available in 160+ countries, but the experience is still largely one-size-fits-all — and that's the opportunity. International Growth exists to change it: to build organic growth flywheels through deep localization, in close partnership with Marketing, starting in core APAC cities and turning what works into a repeatable, scalable playbook we can take to new markets.
Based in Seoul, we're a small, autonomous, cross-functional pod — Product, Design, Engineering, and Data working side by side, moving fast and shipping real experiments — in close partnership with regional local teams (Japan, India, and more) and the global organizations at our U.S. headquarters. Design sits at the center of the bet: making Tinder feel like it was built for each market, not merely translated for it.
