Data Scientist Intern

As humans, there are few things more exciting than meeting someone new. At Tinder, we’re inspired by the challenge of keeping the magic of human connection alive. With tens of millions of users, hundreds of millions of downloads, 2+ billion swipes per day, 20+ million matches per day, and a presence in 190+ countries, our reach is expansive—and rapidly growing.

We work together to solve complex problems. Behind the simplicity of every match, we think deeply about human relationships, behavioral science, network economics, AI and ML, online and real-world safety, cultural nuances, loneliness, love, sex, and more.

The internship program will run from June 1 through August 28, 2026.

This is a hybrid role that requires in-office collaboration three days per week in Los Angeles.

As a Data Scientist Intern at Tinder, you’ll help us uncover insights from one of the world’s largest datasets to enhance user experience, strengthen safety, and drive innovation across our platform. You’ll work alongside talented engineers, data scientists, and product teams to solve real-world problems using data-driven approaches that shape the future of how people connect.

Commitment to Inclusion

At Tinder, we don’t just accept difference, we celebrate it. We strive to build a workplace that reflects the rich diversity of our members around the world, and we value unique perspectives and backgrounds. Even if you don’t meet all the listed qualifications, we invite you to apply and show us how your skills could transfer. Tinder is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace where we welcome people of all sexes, gender identities, races, ethnicities, disabilities, and other lived experiences.
