About Spark Networks, Inc

As a global dating company, we bring people together through an ever-growing portfolio of premium and freemium apps. Our flagship brand, Zoosk, welcomes 40 million singles worldwide, available in 80+ countries and translated into 25 languages. We also connect niche communities through brands like SilverSingles (for the over 50s), Christian Mingle, and Jdate for Christian and Jewish singles.

Our mission? To help singles around the world find love and have fun along the way. Just like in dating, we believe the journey is just as important as the destination—so we pride ourselves on keeping our users engaged, happy, and satisfied throughout their Spark experience.

As a successful subscription-based business, we’re always looking for opportunities to innovate and grow. We are a consumer technology company at heart, and our Product, Design, Data, and Engineering teams work cross-functionally to drive success. With our Marketing team in the US and our Engineering team in Berlin, we collaborate globally to create the best possible experience for our users—and for our employees.

At Spark Networks, we believe that finding the perfect match—whether in dating or in your career—should be exciting, rewarding, and built to last.
