Snap Inc is a technology company. We believe the camera presents the greatest opportunity to improve the way people live and communicate. Snap contributes to human progress by empowering people to express themselves, live in the moment, learn about the world, and have fun together.


The Company operates Snapchat, a visual messaging app that enhances your relationships with friends, family, and the world, and Specs Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary dedicated to making computing more human, in addition to Bitmoji, Saturn, and other digital services.


We're looking for a Lead, Strategy & Operations to join Snap! As a member of the Platform Operations team, you will own the support content program and the surfaces it runs on end to end, including the Snapchat Support help center, in-app support surfaces, support chatbots and AI agents, and the underlying support platform. You'll define the roadmap, run the operating rhythm, and own the quality and reliability of these experiences, with the goal of improving support content discovery and resolving Snapchatter issues at scale. This is a hands-on operating role: you won't just plan the work, you'll build, configure, test, and troubleshoot the systems that deliver it.

What you'll do

  • Own the roadmap for help center, in-app, and chatbot support content, and write, edit, and publish content for product launches, policy changes, and workflow updates while maintaining the style guide and taxonomy.
  • Own and improve the AI-assisted authoring workflow and internal tooling the content program runs on, and define where automation should scale to improve leverage, speed, and quality.
  • Operate support chatbots and ticketing systems in production: author and optimize answer flows, troubleshoot bot behavior, routing, alerting, and integrations, and act as a first responder during incidents.
  • Support and quality-assure automations tied to credential validation, account access, authentication flows, and support intake forms, and tune automated ticket handling in partnership with Platform Operations teams.
  • Own regulatory support flows and form governance, including intake and reporting forms, escalation and appeals paths, and regional launches, translating legal and policy requirements into durable, auditable operating models with Legal and Policy.
  • Maintain platform governance and integration hygiene: integration upkeep, authentication and token migrations, admin and configuration hygiene, email alias governance, and access management.
  • Run the sprint and backlog cadence, recurring reviews and readouts, and change communications that keep cross-functional partners aligned on what is changing, when, and why.
  • Define success measures for the program and be accountable for measurable improvements in content discovery, self-serve resolution, automation rate, quality, and reliability.

Knowledge, Skills & Abilities

  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with high attention to detail and a strong editorial eye.
  • Deep, hands-on fluency with the systems a modern support operation runs on: content management and ticketing platforms (Zendesk or equivalent), support chatbots, and website and product analytics.
  • Comfort operating close to the technical layer, reasoning about integrations, configuration, authentication, and automated workflows, and troubleshooting them under production pressure.
  • Fluent, judicious use of approved AI-assisted tools to build and iterate on internal tools, mocks, and workflow automation, and the judgment to validate outputs where quality, policy, privacy, safety, or customer impact is involved.
  • Ability to own a domain end to end: define the operating model, set priorities and explicit trade-offs, and drive durable outcomes without formal authority.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills, with the ability to translate ambiguous business and regulatory challenges into structured, actionable plans.
  • Composure and clear judgment during incidents, ambiguity, and shifting requirements.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to influence and align stakeholders across Operations, Product, Engineering, Legal, and Policy.

Minimum Qualifications

  • BA/BS degree or equivalent years of experience in Communications, Operations, Marketing, or a related field.
  • 6+ years of experience in program or project management, support or marketing content, or a closely related field.
  • Experience owning support or help content, customer support operations, or programs that serve large consumer audiences.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience operating a support chatbot or conversational-AI support surface in production, including authoring answer flows and troubleshooting live behavior.
  • Experience building lightweight internal tooling or workflow automation, including with AI-assisted development tools.
  • Experience operationalizing regulatory or compliance requirements into support flows, intake and reporting forms, or appeals and escalation paths.
  • Experience with Zendesk administration, integrations, and authentication or token migrations, and familiarity with ticketing tools such as Jira.
  • Hands-on experience with a ticketing or content management platform (Zendesk strongly preferred) and comfort using data to inform decisions.
  • Experience with localization and quality-assurance teams, processes, and systems.
  • Experience analyzing and improving website or in-app search and content discovery (SEO).
  • Web content development experience, including HTML and CSS.
  • Previous experience at a consumer technology, communications, or social media company.
  • Passion for supporting the Snapchat community and understanding what makes for a great customer, business, and platform experience.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
