The role requires strong practical knowledge of Adobe's core Creative Cloud products, working knowledge of Adobe's Marketing Cloud stack, and awareness of third-party production tools.

The focus is on delivering credible, impact-focused, creative solutions while maintaining a commercial mindset that centers around real business and customer solutions, not experiments.
You will have the opportunity to work with some of the world’s largest brands on challenging, cutting-edge content and AI challenges.

Work with internal and customer stakeholders to craft a point of view that aligns Adobe's solutions to the customer's business and creative needs.

Script and record compelling technical demo videos that bring the product to life.

Influence product roadmaps, validate requirements with customers, partners and internal stakeholders; gather technical product feedback from sales, customer success and professional services teams.

Serve as a technical expert on emerging technologies in Adobe Firefly solutions, Creative Cloud, and corresponding Digital Experience APIs and technologies.

Ideate and code (or vibe code) creative enterprise products and workflow prototypes using knowledge of creative production, Adobe APIs, external APIs, and customer needs.

Collaborate with internal engineering and research teams to build prototypes using existing and new technologies.

Explore emerging technologies and synthesize technical trends and their impact on Adobe.

Present product demos to senior leadership and customers, and represent Adobe at customer briefings/events.

Support and manage multiple pre-sales engagements in support of the M&E division and the broader Sales organization.

What you will need to succeed

Deep, hands-on experience with Media and Entertainment workflows (e.g., editor, compositor, VFX lead, motion graphics designer, creator) with 5-10 years of practitioner experience with Creative Cloud (or similar) applications in static, vector, 3D, and/or video content creation.

Deep technical and customer knowledge across creative, document, digital experience, generative AI, and workflow/low-code spaces.

Technical developer skills (e.g., JavaScript/Node.js, API tools, HTML/CSS, React, Python) and low-code connectors are a plus.

Analytical and strategic problem solving; ability to use data to inform decisions.

Ability to think future-focused and engage across functions and engineering teams.

Experience in technical pre-sales, technical consulting, developer/architect, or creative environments is a plus.

Experience across creative, document and marketing workflows (image editing, video, audio, 3D, analytics, work management, PDF).

Strong learning mindset and curiosity with a growth orientation.

Ability to work autonomously and deliver on time; excellent communication with executives and customers.

Willingness to travel domestically and internationally.
