Software Development Engineer 4

About the role

We are seeking a skilled Software Engineer to join the Adobe Express Mobile App team. We're looking for outstanding Android engineers with a passion for making creative tools that impact people’s lives and a keen curiosity for how agentic tools will transform how we develop software.

What You'll Do

• Design and implement major user-facing features in Kotlin or Swift, and sometimes TypeScript in our hybrid web/native application stack
• Build intelligent agents that instrument code and analyze hard to pin down performance and stability metrics — spotting trends and anomalies a human would need days to surface
• Make the mobile app experience sing with features not achievable in the web stack alone
• Use AI-assisted and agentic coding tools to accelerate delivery: steer agents, critically review and validate generated output, and refactor into maintainable, production-quality code — without lowering the bar on craft
• Define quality planning for the entire app lifecycle, not just before release
• Collaborate with Product Management and Designers to define the product roadmap and assess new technologies

What You Need To Succeed

• 3+ years of shipping software development experience, including commercial mobile applications developed using Kotlin or Swift
• Experience with TypeScript or Javascript development
• Driven to achieve objectives, with a keenness for picking up new technologies and adjusting promptly to evolving needs and surroundings
• Comfortable in a fast-paced environment, taking on multiple roles with autonomy and ownership
• Strong grasp of architectural patterns (MVC, MVVM), design patterns, and object-oriented programming
• Proven track record investigating complex, hard-to-reproduce issues in shipping software
• Experience with multi-threading programming and memory management
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and automation testing frameworks

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with hybrid web/native app development
• Familiarity with Lit, MobX, Web Components, and modern browser-based tech stack
• Experience working on mobile web apps, especially in resource-constrained environments
