Staff Design Engineer, Insights

About the role

This role is built for someone who is equally at home prototyping new product experiences leveraging agentic tech, architecting the tooling that makes a design organization run, and holding the line on craft when it would be easier to ship something "good enough."

Responsibilities

• Architect & build internal tools, agentic utilities, and workflow infrastructure that streamline how our design team operates.
• Reduce friction, eliminate repetitive work, and let designers focus on what they're best at & where they can make the biggest impact on the user experience.
• Identify leverage points in our workflows and build toward them, with the goal that the tools you build outlast your involvement and spread beyond our immediate team.
• Create the future by helping our innovative team accelerate our learnings and "fail fast."
• Design and build high-fidelity, functional prototypes in LLM-powered applications that allow our design team to pressure-test assumptions, explore AI-powered interactions, and validate experiences before they reach production-scale engineering.
• Develop a shared prototyping toolkit & end-to-end processes that our design team, and our business partners, can use to democratize building within our specific Insights environment.
• Evaluate scaling this work to support composable systems & components for insight-driven product experiences more broadly across Adobe.
• Raise the bar on craft by bringing finesse-level quality to the insight experiences we ship.
• Close the gap between design intent & technical implementation by partnering with production engineers to ensure our emerging development processes are architected, from the ground up, to deliver high-quality UX.

Requirements

• 10+ years of experience at the intersection of design & engineering
• Hands-on experience building & shipping LLM-powered apps, automations, or agentic systems
• A body of work (production-level shipped product) demonstrating quality & attention to detail
• Experience in design organizations & an understanding of what it takes to earn designers' trust

Qualifications

• Growth mindset to everything
• Genuinely energized by how product design is evolving
• Curiosity, continuous learning, and a maker’s mindset to your work
• Comfortable exploring and experimenting
• Bias to action

Skills

• Experience in building libraries, frameworks, or internal tools that designers and/or engineers adopt and extend
• Background working in enterprise product development/SaaS environments
• Experience building data & analytics tools, or with data visualization libraries (Vega, D3)
• Experience building systems for communication & collaboration
• Multi-surface/platform thinking, particularly at enterprise scale
