Senior Software Engineer - Backend

We are seeking a highly motivated Senior Software Engineer to join the new Project Graph services team at Adobe.

Project Graph is a new creative system that lets you combine first and third-party AI models, Adobe tools, and custom interactive components inside a visual, designer-friendly node graph editor. Connect a library of tactile, interactive components that bring creative control of AI back to your fingertips. Transform ideas into powerful workflows and modular tools that run anywhere, from the web to Adobe apps like Photoshop. And if you'd rather focus on creating than building, you can tap into a growing ecosystem of community-built tools without ever opening the editor.

The services team focuses on developing HTTP APIs for two primary uses: (1) managing Graph plugins, their versioning, publishing, access control and search, (2) async compute platform for running Graphs on the cloud.

In this backend-focused role, you will play a key role in developing HTTP APIs, working closely with cluster orchestrators like Kubernetes, and building on top of AWS cloud infrastructure.

What you'll do:

• Collaboratively write scalable, resilient HTTP APIs for Project Graph

• Contribute to an async job scheduling system built on top of Kubernetes and Postgres, If this role is open to hiring in Colorado (as listed on the job posting), the application window will remain open until at least the date and time stated above in Pacific Time, in compliance with Colorado pay transparency regulations. If this role does not have Colorado listed as a hiring location, no specific application window applies, and the posting may close at any time based on hiring needs.
