About the role
- Define and drive the design vision for Adobe GenStudio, centered on AI-first, agentic workflows.
- Champion the evolution from traditional creative editing to intelligence-layer design—where AI, data, and human creativity intersect.
- Act as a player/coach: rolling up your sleeves to prototype, tinker, and experiment, while also elevating and mentoring a team of designer.
- Lead end-to-end design across core areas of GenStudio.
- Partner with engineering to ensure designs are feasible, scalable, and performant.
- Champion a tinkerer’s mindset: experimenting with prototypes, emerging UI patterns (chat + canvas + editor), and new generative AI capabilities.
- Create spaces for rapid experimentation (Labs-style pilots, internal playtesting, customer co-design).
- Translate evolving customer insights and enterprise feedback into actionable design strategies with a focus on short and long-term impact.
- Advocate for marketer needs and ensure design decisions are grounded in research and real-world usage.
- Be a trusted partner across Adobe—working with Firefly, Experience Cloud, and enterprise platform teams.
- Influence senior stakeholders with compelling narratives, prototypes, and strategy docs.
Requirements
- 12+ years in product design, with 5+ years in leadership roles.
- Proven track record leading design for complex enterprise products—ideally in marketing, data, or AI.
- Hands-on design and prototyping skills; ability to inspire by showing, not just telling.
- Deep curiosity and comfort working in emerging spaces (AI agents, LLMs, generative interfaces).
- Strong systems thinker, able to simplify complexity into intuitive, composable workflows.
- Passionate about scaling and mentoring design teams; player/coach mindset is essential.
- A leader who balances strategic vision with execution discipline, adapts team structures as needed, and drives customer-driven change management.
- Experience instrumenting design experiments to measure adoption, value, and trust.
- Proven ability to build and scale a high-performing design organization, while remaining flexible with team structures.
- You've driven systems thinking in design—balancing micro-interactions (chat, editor, agent handoff) with macro-flows (marketer journeys, enterprise governance).
Benefits
- Compensation reflects the cost of labor across several U.S. geographic markets.
- Health insurance.
- Flexible working hours.
- Remote work options.
- Professional development opportunities.
