THROUGH THE LENS

Leveraging emerging tech to engaging effect

“I never could have envisioned that puking rainbows, cute dog ears and a dancing hot dog would change the world,” Bogdanovich said. It’s not hyperbole: Lenses, which Bogdanovich helped developed, introduced envelope-pushing AR to the masses. And don’t mistake an employee impersonating a dinosaur as goofing off — it’s typical of the creative research that informs a creation in the Lens Studio prior to testing and rollout.

Augmented reality is an amazing idea where technology meets design in the most organic way. You can treat the world as your canvas, to create, to inspire, to dream up.

Chief Information Security Officer

IN GOOD HANDS

There’s no ghosting on safe, secure tech

With great reach comes great responsibility. Moore and his team of roughly 100 engineers and program managers endeavor to keep users safe, protect their privacy and preserve platform integrity — paramount in today’s world, where bad actors are never far. To maintain a “comprehensive, modern security program,” Moore’s team negotiates speed with scale to keep software updates and deployments moving smoothly and securely.

Snap has made a massive investment in security and privacy, and it’s a huge part of the company’s DNA.

THE BIG PICTURE

Talented technologists striving for product perfection

Ahmed leverages machine learning to ensure reliable delivery of relevant ads to global users. That requires meeting client needs without muddying the user experience. Facilitating the infrastructure to walk that tightrope means balancing “millions of users and billions of requests to our servers,” Ahmed said. And at Snap’s scale, Ahmed noted, bugs experienced by even 1 percent of users affect a massive amount of Snapchatters.

The pace at which Snap moves, and the immense scale of the problems we face, means that you are constantly learning and iterating.

An Insider's view of Snap Inc.

How would you describe the company’s work-life balance?

The work life balance at Snap is unmatched! I’ve worked at different tech companies, but what Snap offers is so unique. We have offices around the globe and whenever I travel, I make it a point to visit the local office to get some work done. Also, having flexible work hours encourages you to strike a nice balance between work and play.

Jasmeet

Reporting & Insights Analyst

What does your typical day look like?

A supply chain role is synonymous with unpredictable days. My daily priorities often revolve around solving complex challenges for my global business partners that happen overnight. But getting to be involved in product development with my engineering team in LA and working across global cultures to bring a product to life is extremely rewarding!

Anukul

Global Supply Manager, Snaplab

How has your career grown since starting at the company?

I joined Snap a year after college without any experience tackling problems of this scale. The fast-paced work, diversity of problems, freedom to fail, strong mentorship from the smartest minds in the industry, and room to make a notable impact propelled me from a junior hire to a technical lead in just 2 years. I’ve grown from mentee to mentor.

Winston

Information Security Engineer

How do you collaborate with other teams in the company?

The Research team helps Snap innovate in some of the newest and most interesting areas of technology. We love being able to make an impact on all of Snap’s products by taking tough technical challenges and solving them with state-of-the-art approaches.
