Software Development Engineer

Requirements

• 5+ years of software engineering experience with strong systems thinking
• Proficiency in Python, TypeScript, or similar
• Strong understanding of APIs, backend systems, and distributed architectures
• Experience with observability (logging, metrics, tracing) to debug and monitor production systems
• Experience evaluating performance trade-offs (latency, cost, reliability)
• Solid foundation in algorithms, data structures, and software building principles
• Excellent problem-solving abilities and attention to detail

Nice to Haves

• Experience with multi-agent systems or orchestration frameworks (LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, etc.)
• Experience decomposing workflows across agents and managing agent-to-agent communication
• Experience crafting eval systems, measuring agent quality, and catching regressions
• Familiarity with synthetic data generation and evaluation datasets
• Has built and shipped an AI system end-to-end
• Comfortable making architecture decisions with incomplete information
• Has debugged LLM issues in production (latency, cost, failures, scaling limits)
• Balances fast delivery with developing scalable, stable systems

What You'll Be Doing

• Define and evolve agentic architectures for real-world, production workflows
• Develop and expand sub-agents within the Adobe Express AI Assistant ecosystem
• Define success metrics, guardrails, and acceptance criteria for AI systems
• Take ideas from prototype to production; iterate quickly and harden for scale
• Balance quick testing with developing scalable, reliable systems
• Own key business metrics (quality, adoption, latency, cost), not just feature delivery
• Continuously improve agents by analyzing production data, refining test sets, and running A/B experiments
• Identify drift, degradation, and failure modes; drive fixes and improvements

Perks and Benefits

• Opportunity to work at a leading tech company like Adobe
• Competitive salary and benefits package
• Collaborative and innovative work environment
• Access to cutting-edge technologies and tools
• Opportunities for professional growth and development
