  • Align enterprise solution architectures with business goals and digital marketing strategies.
  • Translate complex technical concepts into clear recommendations for both executive and technical audiences.
  • Serve as the bridge between client business leaders, IT stakeholders, and Adobe delivery teams to ensure alignment from strategy to execution.
  • Provide thought leadership to executive sponsors, evangelizing solutions that drive value and innovation.
  • Capture client insights and partner with Adobe product and engineering teams to influence product evolution.

WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED:

  • 5+ years of experience as a Solution Architect, Enterprise Architect, or Consultant leading enterprise technology initiatives.
  • Deep expertise in digital marketing and customer experience solutions across data, content, personalization, commerce, analytics, and engagement.

  • Strong track record of delivering successful enterprise integrations and digital marketing transformations involving analytics, personalization, testing/optimization, and customer data activation.
  • Proven ability to engage senior executives (CMO, CIO, CXO) and facilitate consensus across business and IT stakeholders.
  • Excellent communication skills—able to simplify complexity for non-technical stakeholders and dive deep with technical teams.
  • Strong problem-solving, facilitation, and strategic thinking skills with the ability to translate business needs into technical solutions.
  • Experience creating solution blueprints, capability maps, and strategic roadmaps.
  • Consulting background or experience in a world-class technology services organization preferred.
  • Strong leadership in fast-paced, dynamic environments; adept at managing multiple client opportunities at once.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection.

Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
