Our Company

Changing the world through digital experiences is what Adobe's all about. We give everyone-from emerging artists to global brands-everything they need to design and deliver exceptional digital experiences! We're passionate about empowering people to create beautiful and powerful images, videos, and apps, and transform how companies interact with customers across every screen.

We're on a mission to hire the very best and are committed to creating exceptional employee experiences where everyone is respected and has access to equal opportunity. We realize that new ideas can come from everywhere in the organization, and we know the next big idea could be yours!

The opportunity:

We are seeking a Program Manager for Adobe's Unified Platform. This role challenges you to align technical needs with business outcomes in a highly collaborative environment, where how we work is as important as what we deliver. You will individually lead critical programs in concert with cross-functional peers from product, business, design, and engineering. Owning the execution for program outcomes will require you to utilize value-based prioritization and create clear expectations and transparency. As you deliver programs, you will propose trade-offs related to resources, sequencing, and prioritization. You will also have an opportunity for innovative approaches as you solve barriers to execution within your area. With clear communication, you'll confidently present your team's insights to stakeholders and discuss technical trade-offs with engineers. We value curiosity, a passion for learning, and a growth mindset. Join us to grow your career and make a significant impact!

What you'll do:

  • Collaborative Partnerships: Establish collaborative and productive strategic partnerships with product, design, operations, engineering, and business partners.

  • Execution: Foster excellence in execution delivery by articulating clear expectations, ensuring transparency, and driving trade-offs.

  • Program Delivery: Lead technical programs, including defining, prioritizing, and mobilizing cross-functional teams.

  • Organizational Improvements: Own the outcome within our organization to streamline processes, accelerate execution, and bring tooling efficiencies.

What you need:

  • 8 years of experience in software engineering or technical product/program management.

  • Experience running large-scale org-wide initiatives requiring teamwork across a broad set of partners and participants.

  • Proven knowledge of portfolio, resource, and process management.

  • Experience managing a portfolio in an "always on" cloud/services-based organization; driving resiliency and optimizations to ensure a positive customer experience every time.

  • Adept at working well across organizations and building relationships with a globally diverse workforce.

This role is pivotal in driving the success of Adobe, ensuring seamless delivery and strategic alignment across all projects and programs.

Our compensation reflects the cost of labor across several U.S. geographic markets, and we pay differently based on those defined markets. The U.S. pay range for this position is $124,300 -- $228,400 annually. Pay within this range varies by work location and may also depend on job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for the job location during the hiring process.
