Senior Software Engineer - AEM Assets
THE OPPORTUNITY
AEM Assets is Adobe's digital asset management platform - a Gartner-ranked Leader in Digital Asset Management for over a decade, with agentic AI already shipped and in production: Content Advisor for conversational search, Governance Agent enforcing brand rules automatically, Content Optimization Agent reshaping content per channel. A DAM here isn't a supporting tool other systems tolerate - it's becoming the thing every other system depends on, and that authority matters more as AI systems decide what content gets surfaced and reused.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Own features end-to-end with a customer in the loop from day one - discovery, prototype, ship, then track whether it landed
Set the pace for AI-native development on your team: fast iteration, real validation, no pretending a demo is done just because it's demoable
Translate ambiguous, real-world customer problems into working software fast enough that the customer stays in the conversation
Treat adoption and quality as your problem too - not just the PM's - when a feature ships but doesn't land
Mentor engineers earlier in their career on the technical craft and on the discipline of building with customers, not for them
WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED
5+ years of software engineering experience, or a relevant degree plus equivalent experience
Deep proficiency in JavaScript/Node.js or Python; solid reasoning about distributed systems and API design
Full-stack capability (React, HTML/CSS, backend) with cloud-native experience (AWS)
A track record of turning a real customer problem into production software - not just a spec into code
Fluent with AI-assisted development tools, and comfortable holding others to that standard
Some entrepreneurial instinct - comfortable being early, sometimes wrong, and fast to correct
