The Opportunity
What if data collaboration between enterprises could be as seamless, intelligent, and real-time as consumer apps — but built with enterprise-grade scale, privacy, and performance?
Adobe Real-Time Customer Data Platform (Real-Time CDP), part of Adobe Digital Experience, helps organizations unify known and anonymous data into real-time customer profiles. But profiles alone are not enough.
RTCDP Collaboration takes this further. We are building the engine that enables organizations to securely collaborate on data — activating shared insights while preserving governance, scalability, and performance at massive scale. How does data actually move? How is it processed? How do we orchestrate workflows across systems, clouds, and partners in real time? How do we ensure trust, performance, and resilience while handling billions of events? These are not theoretical questions. They are the engineering challenges we solve every day. As a Senior Software Development Engineer in the UI team, you will not just implement features — you will shape how enterprise data collaboration happens inside the Adobe ecosystem. You will help design the systems that allow businesses to connect, activate shared insights, and ultimately deliver more meaningful customer experiences. If you are driven by complexity, ownership, and architectural impact — this is your challenge.
What you’ll do:
- Create the future Adobe products by building and maintaining complex and robust user interfaces for our customers
- Own the outcome by taking the initiative and ownership for the application design efforts while always optimizing for quality, scalability and performance.
- Raise the bar by focusing on continuously innovating and seeking novel methods for addressing complex technical distributed system challenges.
- Be genuine, serve as a mentor, foster a collaborative environment and encourage and guide team members by being honest and direct.
- Work with and across teams and domains to collaborate.
- Act with clarity and precision, ensuring projects are driven with a strong sense of ownership and direction.
