Senior Engineering Manager, Agentic AI, Adobe Express

Why this role is different

Scale that matters. Adobe Express reaches tens of millions of users. The decisions your team makes about orchestration, inference, and caching are felt by every one of them.

The full modern AI stack. Model orchestration, inference systems, data pipelines, caching and storage layers, session analytics, continuous evaluation frameworks - your team owns it end to end.

Real influence. You won't just ship features. You'll compose how AI is built, measured, and adopted across one of Adobe's flagship products.

A team worth leading. Sharp, ambitious engineers who care deeply about the problem. Your job is to multiply their impact.

What you'll do

Lead, grow, and develop a team of strong engineers by attracting top talent, mentoring through change, and crafting the conditions for great work.

Drive the technical direction for the AI framework underpinning every AI experience in Adobe Express.

Own delivery end-to-end, architecture choices, execution risk, dependencies, and clear signal to senior leadership on what matters.

Partner closely with product, research, and build to turn ambitious AI ideas into systems that actually scale.

Stay ahead of where the field is going with new models, new patterns, new evaluation methods and translate that into product impact.

Build a team culture that's inclusive, candid, fast paced, and genuinely fun to be part of.

What you bring

15 - 20+ years in software engineering, with 6+ years leading engineering teams through real product delivery.

Hands-on AI/ML experience, you've built ML-powered features, coordinated models into production systems, or worked shoulder to shoulder with ML research teams. You understand the gap between a model that works in a notebook and one that works at scale.

A track record of driving AI adoption beyond a single team by defining success metrics, crafting governance practices, and enabling safe, scalable usage across an organization.

Strong technical depth and the analytical instincts to make sharp calls with incomplete information.
