Scaled Program Lead
About The Position
Adobe’s Unified Platform operates at a large scale — supporting hundreds of active programs, thousands of connected work items, and global teams across product, program management, user experience, and engineering. When Adobe acquires a new company, there is a need for centralized program leadership to oversee and manage the entire integration process, from pre-close planning through post-close integration, ensuring the acquired business is successfully integrated into the platform. This high-leverage role was developed to meet that need. It builds on the core expectations of a Lead Program Manager — strong execution, cross-functional leadership, and delivery accountability — while extending them across the platform.

- Strong background in information technology, with familiarity in identity and access management systems, payment management, and offer onboarding
