About The Position

DEPT® is seeking a highly technical, consultative, and hands-on Architect, Software Engineering (Adobe - AEM/WorkFront) to join our forward-deployed architecture squad in North America. Mapped back to our platform-agnostic Web Craft, this role is a specialized engineering seat focused on Web Craft excellence. You will step directly into complex client environments to execute deep-dive frontend code audits, optimize rendering speeds, and resolve complex web and asset architecture blockages. This is a hands-on technical execution role. You will work in tight sprint windows to remediate technical debt, configure permissions pathways, and execute migration tasks from legacy architectures to modern cloud-native content environments, restoring customer confidence and establishing technical stability.

Requirements

  • Frontend Engineering Mastery: 10+ years of software engineering experience focusing on frontend performance, modern CSS/JS frameworks (React, Next.js), and headless web development.
  • Web Architecture Excellence: Deep technical understanding of CDN edge routing, web caching layers, Single Sign-On (SSO) configurations, and taxonomy models.
  • Required Adobe Experience: Hands-on engineering expertise across Adobe Experience Manager (AEM Sites and AEM Assets), including AEM Cloud Service and legacy on-prem/managed versions.
  • Direct development experience deploying and tuning AEM Edge Delivery Services (EDS) for high-speed page performance.
  • Proven experience utilizing AEM Assets (DAM), configuring asset search facets, and managing creative workflows across Creative Cloud for Enterprise and Adobe Express.
  • Experience architecting and integrating commerce capabilities such as products, payment and fulfillment leveraging Adobe Commerce and similar platforms.
  • Consultative Mindset: Strong collaborative skills with the ability to work directly with client development teams and explain technical fixes clearly.

Responsibilities

  • Perform Code & Performance Audits: Execute deep frontend code reviews and implement targeted speed optimizations (e.g., page-load speeds, edge routing configurations, script minimization).
  • Deliver Cloud Migrations: Lead hands-on technical migration tasks to transition legacy, on-prem, or managed web environments to modern cloud-native CMS architectures.
  • Remediate Asset Workflows: Reconfigure asset taxonomies, permissions, metadata schemas, and Single Sign-On (SSO) paths to unblock creative workflows.
  • Implement Decoupled Interfaces: Build and optimize modern headless or decoupled web frontends, ensuring highly performant rendering.
  • Support Technical Handoffs: Document code fixes, establish standard operating procedures (SOPs) for client development teams, and transition stabilized assets cleanly.
