Smartdate, based in Paris France, is a fast growing, VC-backed, international online dating platform. Our goal is nothing short of world domination, at least in the dating space (for the time being, Google can breath a sign of relief).

Since the launch on Valentine's Day 2010, Smartdate has been exploding. We are now the top trafficked dating site in France. Due to this explosive expansion, we are currently searching for other talented and interesting individuals to help see us through to total world domination(™).
