AI Engineer Jobs at Adobe with Visa Sponsorship

INTRODUCTION

Adobe's Growth Marketing & Insights (GMI) organization is in the middle of a genuine, ground-up reinvention of how marketing teams operate. We're no longer adding AI tools to the margins—we're rebuilding workflows from first principles, with agentic AI at the center. The Forward Deployed AI Engineer role exists to make that happen!

As a member of the AI Strategy & Innovation (AISI) team, you'll be embedded with the Lifecycle Marketing (LCM) team, working alongside them, learning their craft, and building tools and automations that transform the way they operate. Your goal is to upend the current workflow by redesigning the repeatable workflows that marketing managers rely on every day (briefs, intake, reviews, approvals, launches, reporting, analytics).

You'll also be part of the connective tissue across the AISI team. You'll share what you build, incorporate what others have built into your own work, and help to establish the playbooks and patterns that scale good ideas across all of GMI. We work shoulder-to-shoulder with marketers across every function and measure ourselves by this question: did we improve the way that someone works?

Traits of the successful candidate

- Genuine excitement about what AI can do right now and what it will do next. You're pulled toward new AI developments, not just keeping up with them. When a new capability surfaces, your first instinct is to get your hands on it. You have opinions about what's useful, and what's just hype, because you've tested enough of it to know the difference.

• A deep knowledge of lifecycle marketing, and many ideas on how to transform it. You've worked with a Lifecycle Marketing team before, so you understand their processes—and their inefficiencies. You've always wanted the opportunity to speed up or automate workflows, or to just rip out entire parts of the LCM machine and replace them with something much better. This is your opportunity to do just that.

• An instinct for communication that runs as deep as your technical skills. Building a great tool is only half the job. The other half is getting someone to trust it, use it, and eventually own it. You're patient with skeptics, know how to calibrate your approach, and measure yourself by whether people actually change how they work.

• Intense curiosity. Before you build anything, you ask questions. You want to understand the actual workflow, the real friction, the underlying goal—not just the surface-level ask. You'd rather find the elegant fix than force a tool where it doesn't belong.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

- 5+ years of technical experience and 2+ years building and deploying AI applications

• Your technical experience has involved analytical thinking, creative problem-solving, and collaboration

• Expertise in AI development platforms and tooling (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor, agent frameworks, API integrations, Azure, AWS, etc.)

• Expertise in Python, SQL, and at least one other common language

• Hands-on experience building AI-powered tools, automations, or agentic systems that change how real work gets done

• Strong communication skills with the ability to make technical ideas feel accessible to non-technical audiences

• Ability to manage multiple relationships and workstreams simultaneously, meeting people where they are across different stages of AI fluency—the LCM team is large and there will be many responsibilities to juggle

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Direct experience working inside an LCM team or marketing operations function

• Familiarity with Adobe's marketing technology ecosystem: Experience Manager, GenStudio for Performance Marketing, Adobe Analytics, Adobe Journey Optimizer, Workfront, etc.

• Experience building internal tools or playbooks that outlasted your involvement and spread beyond your immediate team
