Darshana Umakanth

Director of Software Engineering, Disney Streaming

Building features that reach diverse audiences

The major initiative that Darshana Umakanth and the Disney Streaming engineering team are working on at Disney is broadly termed “unification.” And it’s a big deal. It means that the director of software engineering of Disney Streaming and her team are looking to unify the services that power Hulu, Disney+ and Star+, bringing equal capabilities to all applications. A project like this serves her team’s all-encompassing mission: to build features that help Disney reach more diverse audiences in powerful and personalized ways.

I’m incredibly lucky that I get to lead a team full of driven engineers and leaders who want to do something good every day.

Suzanne Glover

Executive Director of Program Management, DMED

Powering advertising across digital properties

When Suzanne Glover joined The Walt Disney Company nine years ago, she never could have imagined the rate of change she’d experience. With that transformation came increasingly data-driven storytelling and ad content that speaks to viewers’ interests. She sees her role as an essential piece of the global unified ad platform puzzle.

Disney’s decision to go all in on streaming has allowed us to evolve as a company in lock step with our guest’s changing viewing habits.

Chuck Babb

Product Manager

Tech that leads to adventure

Chuck Babb wants to make it easier for you to interact with your favorite Star Wars characters. The product manager oversees projects that present live-action role-play questing to Disney’s parks via the MagicBand+, a wearable bracelet that allows guests to naturally interact, explore, experiment and play throughout Disney’s parks. Currently, he’s focused on Star Wars: Batuu Bounty Hunters and supporting the park’s Fab 50 Statue Quest. These projects will make parks more interactive and allow guests to be a part of personalized storytelling and adventure.

Magic is made in innovating something old or creating something new. The artful skill of failing fast to achieve a high level of success has never been so important!

How does the company support your career growth?

Over my 13 years with the company, I’ve had passionate leaders and colleagues with diverse backgrounds who have taught me and given me opportunities to expand into areas I never thought possible. You have the freedom to take career risks and apply your previous experience in ways you may not anticipate.

What is your vision for the company?

Disney has always been at the heart of the evolution of the media industry, and technology is an essential part of that. The way that we tell and consume stories in the future is going to be completely different than it is today, and The Walt Disney Company is uniquely positioned to shape and create that future.
