The Opportunity We’re looking for a Staff Designer to help define how intelligence, automation, and creativity come together in the next generation of creative workflows.

Love experimenting with new technologies? Curious about how AI can expand creativity? This might be your next challenge! What You’ll Do This role designs systems and interfaces that empower creatives to work with intelligent tools—whether that means developing adaptive brand systems, building design automation frameworks, or exploring how custom image and video models become part of the creative process.

Prototypes are used as thinking tools, evolving concepts through feedback and exploration. What We Offer At Adobe, creativity belongs to everyone—and that includes our team.
