ML Ops Engineer

At Meetic, a Match Group company, we have been pioneering online dating for over 20 years, leveraging our legacy to reinvent how people meet, connect, and build meaningful relationships across Europe and beyond. 

As part of Match Group, we manage a diverse portfolio of brands, from iconic names like Meetic, Match, Lexa, and LoveScout24 to tailored experiences for singles over 50, OurTime, DisonsDemain, Zweisam, and single parents, Even and Stir. 

Our teams design, build, and scale platforms across 20+ countries and 18 languages, ensuring every single finds the right match for their lifestyle and lifestages. We also drive growth for other Match Group brands like The League, OkCupid, Archer, Salams, and Plenty Of Fish, expanding our impact worldwide.

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 in our office, 53 rue de Chateaudun, 75009 Paris.
