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's three core products are Snapchat, a visual messaging app that enhances your relationships with friends, family, and the world; Lens Studio, an augmented reality platform that powers AR across Snapchat and other services; and its AR glasses, Spectacles. Snap Research serves as an innovation engine for the company. Our projects range from solutions to hard technical problems that significantly enhance Snap's existing products, to riskier explorations that can lead to fundamental paradigm shifts in the way people communicate and express themselves. The team consists of scientists and engineers who experiment with and invent new technology that has a lasting impact on Snap's products. We are looking for a Research Scientist to join the Creative Vision Research Team! At Creative Vision, we focus on making everyone into a creator. We believe creativity is achieved when technology understands the world, humans and objects, provides a range of creative generation and manipulation tools and efficient real-time experiences. Our technology impacts and contributes to multiple products at Snap.
