Job Description

Hunch is an innovative dating app designed to transform mutual interest into real first dates, moving beyond endless chatting and superficial swiping.

The platform features 100% photo-verified profiles and leverages an AI matchmaker to streamline the dating process, ensuring matches progress to actual meetups rather than lingering in digital conversations. Hunch is a Series A funded startup with $23 million in funding, focused on building the future of social discovery in a post-AI world. The app delivers a curated daily selection of profiles tailored by taste, lifestyle, and availability, ensuring genuine connections without bots or catfishing.
