Amagi celebrates International Women’s Day 2025

In honor of International Women’s Day, Amagi set out to amplify the voices of women across the company. We had them share insights about breaking into the tech field, inspirational moments that have driven them to success, and words of wisdom. Here’s what they had to say.

What sparked your interest in tech?

The natural inclination to challenge the status quo and to question the mindset of "this is how it's always been done." For me, technology is not just innovation, it is all about breaking barriers and pushing your boundaries to make a meaningful impact. – Mamatha, Segment Lead - Onboarding, Americas

Technology is always evolving, which keeps things exciting—there’s always something new to learn! – Shwetha.M, Lead - Ad Ops

Who were the main influential mentors or role models in your career (or life) and why?

My dad was a truly hardworking and influential mentor throughout my career. He set an incredible example through his dedication, perseverance, and strong work ethic. Much of what I know today—about staying focused, overcoming challenges, or the importance of commitment—has come from the lessons he taught me, often without even realizing it. His influence has been a cornerstone in shaping my professional and personal values. – Sanjitha R M, Assistant Manager - Finance

What advice would you give your younger self?

Prioritize the relationships that truly drive mutual value. – Jessica Durante, Director, Ads Plus Demand Partnerships 

Not to be afraid when things don’t go exactly as planned. Sometimes the best opportunities come from unexpected changes, and flexibility is just as valuable as preparation. – Ashley Nguyen, Sr. Manager Ad Operations - Demand 

Don't be so hard on yourself. Mistakes that seem big in the moment don't matter later. – Stephanie Snow VP, Global Ad Operations

You won't remember this moment unless you choose to, so choose wisely! – Amoolya Giridhar, Sales Finance Lead

You have control over your efforts, but not over the results they bring. Focus on doing your best without being attached to success or failure. – Sarita Ningappa, Devops Engineer

What advice do you have for your future self?

Stay curious and take the time to enjoy the little moments and appreciate how far you've come. – Lesia Ivanova, Associate Support Specialist

To have a healthy lifestyle, balanced meals, keep moving and use my brain while being kind to others and keep smiling, as it is important to be happy. – Kiira Hjert-Bernardi, Talent Acquisition Partner 

Trust yourself more, embrace the unknown, and don’t be afraid to take bigger risks. Keep learning, keep growing, and always make time for what truly matters! – Smitha Srivathsa, Learning & Development - Lead

Hey future me, hope you’re still chasing sunsets, capturing wild moments, and taking the scenic route—literally and figuratively. Don’t get stuck in the boardroom—real change happens out in the world. Stay curious, explore more, and never stop advocating for the planet and those who can’t speak for themselves! – Vidyut Jauhari Global Head Corporate Social Responsibility
