TL;DR

As a senior product engineer in Adobe's Forward Deployed Engineering team, you will prototype and productionize full-stack generative AI applications for enterprise customers, embedding directly with their teams to understand requirements and co-build solutions. You will design, develop, and deploy software from concept to deployment while extracting reusable patterns into shared libraries and frameworks to accelerate future projects. This role requires hands-on experience in building on LLMs like GPT and developing RAG pipelines, along with fluency in AI-native workflows using tools such as Cursor or Copilot. You must be proficient in full-stack technologies including React/Next.js, Node.js/Python, REST/GraphQL, and cloud platforms like AWS or Azure, while also excelling in customer-facing communication and driving rapid iteration cycles. Experience in content production systems or creative workflow tools is a significant plus, as is familiarity with Adobe's ecosystem products like Firefly Services and AEM.
