Jade Vance
Senior Software Engineer
SEARCH SAVVY
Shaping the data-driven visual experience
Being an engineer on Getty Images’ search team takes a “Swiss Army knife of skills,” according to Jade Vance. Think React for front-end work, C# for back-end applications, Python for data, and above all else, the ability to find fun in your work. Vance achieved that last objective via the launch of the VisualGPS Insights tool. While the interactive tool helps Getty Images and iStock customers make smarter visual strategy decisions through data, it also resulted in Vance’s professional growth: “I’ve led and shaped this initiative from the designs all the way down to how the data is structured.”

I get to have close connections with the customer and see what delights and inspires them as we build.
Bill Presant
Tech Lead Search Engineer
FINDING THE RIGHT FIT
Not too big, not too small
By joining the Technology team, Presant got to work with exactly the kind of data at the scale he’d been seeking in his job search. Now, he gets to build machine-learning models and collaborate with linguists and data scientists to elevate the user search experience for Getty Images’ global customer base. “The goal is to have users type what they’re looking for exactly the way they’d describe it to a friend.” It’s been a “Goldilocks” opportunity: a big company with resources and structure, but a tight-knit team — and the technology arm of Getty Images as a critical pillar to the organization.

Ideas and projects are thoughtful and intentional. It’s less about doing things for the sake of doing them.
Wendy Ku
Senior Data Scientist
Tools for good
Shaping the industry through an impactful approach
Keeping “fairness” front of mind is inherent in Senior Data Scientist Wendy Ku’s work on Getty Images’ search team. “Our mission is to enable customers to find the visual that they want to license as easily and intuitively as possible, and we know that our search results must represent the make-up of society, and must do so fairly, in order to accomplish this mission,” Ku said. Accordingly, the team works to ensure multilingual and visual language models are informed by appropriate data so that harmful stereotypes or biases are not perpetuated when users make image queries.
