Why Niantic?

Niantic's global-scale augmented reality platform and digital map powers spatial computing experiences in the real world. Incubated out of the Maps team at Google, Niantic first created Ingress and then Pokémon GO, a cultural phenomenon and hit game played by tens of millions of people each month. Niantic’s Lightship platform, which powers Pokémon GO, also supports the company's other games including Pikmin Bloom, Peridot, and Monster Hunter Now.

We believe that cultivating a workplace where our people are supported and included is essential to creating great products our community will love. Our mission emphasizes seeking and hiring diverse voices, including those who are traditionally underrepresented in the technology industry.

Niantic is a hybrid-first company. We believe that in-person interaction and collaboration foster creativity, a sense of community, and are critical to our future success as a company. Our hybrid work schedules allow for a mix of remote and in-office work.
