About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Adobe Experience Platform (AEP) Engineer who can combine deep hands-on engineering expertise with technical leadership for an end-to-end AEP implementation.
This is a senior technical role for someone who has successfully worked across the complete Adobe Experience Platform implementation lifecycle — not only on isolated AEP components.
You will be responsible for helping lead the technical implementation while remaining actively involved in architecture, engineering, integrations, data modeling, identity strategy, governance, environments, and deployment readiness.
Important
This is NOT an AEP configuration or support role.
Candidates must have strong, hands-on Adobe Experience Platform (AEP) engineering experience.
Experience primarily with Adobe Experience Manager (AEM), Adobe Analytics, Adobe Target, Adobe Campaign, or other Adobe Experience Cloud products does not meet the requirements for this position unless accompanied by strong hands-on AEP engineering and end-to-end implementation experience.
Key Responsibilities
Lead and contribute hands-on to end-to-end Adobe Experience Platform (AEP) implementations.
Design and implement XDM schemas and datasets aligned with enterprise data requirements.
Define and implement identity namespaces and profile stitching strategies.
Enable and optimize Real-Time Customer Profile capabilities.
Design and implement batch and streaming data ingestion patterns.
Implement and support Adobe Experience Platform Web SDK.
Define and apply data governance and consent frameworks within AEP.
Design scalable AEP architecture and integrations across enterprise systems.
Define and support environment strategies across Development, Test, Stage, and Production.
Lead technical planning for releases, deployments, and production readiness.
Identify technical risks, dependencies, and scalability considerations throughout the implementation.
Partner with technical and business stakeholders to translate requirements into scalable AEP solutions.
Provide technical direction and guidance to engineering teams while remaining actively involved in implementation.
Balance hands-on engineering responsibilities with technical leadership and implementation ownership.

The following qualifications are mandatory. Candidates must have strong hands-on AEP engineering experience to be considered.
Strong hands-on Adobe Experience Platform (AEP) engineering experience.
Proven experience leading or owning end-to-end AEP implementations.

Experience with release planning and deployment readiness.
Ability to combine deep hands-on engineering expertise with technical leadership.
Strong communication and collaboration skills with technical teams and stakeholders.
Ability to work aligned with the CST time zone.
Ability and willingness to meet the required travel schedule to Los Angeles, California.
