Familiarity with modern AIenabled developer tooling and practices. ## Description Our iOS mobile team is part of the Adobe Video organization, where we build video creation and editing experiences for storytellers across desktop, mobile, and web. We move fast, care deeply about craft-and we're hiring a Senior Engineering Manager to help lead that work on iOS! We want someone who will help define both what we build and how we build it. That includes establishing modern engineering practices and embracing AIassisted development to improve quality and speed. We're looking for a manager who empowers their team to ship great iOS experiences while encouraging use of AI tools to move fast. We think you'll thrive here if you bring people leadership and technical fluency. You communicate clearly across disciplines. And you enjoy working through tradeoffs with engineers and product partners to deliver the best outcome for customers. What You'll Do You'll lead, grow, and support a talented team of senior iOS engineers. Together, we build creative, userfacing features-from early product and interaction design through execution and production quality. You'll set technical and quality standards for the iOS organization. That means ensuring architectural coherence, maintainability, and performance across the codebase. We also need someone who can coach engineers on effective use of AIassisted development tools and agentic workflows. You'll help the team accelerate responsibly while maintaining rigorous standards for code quality, correctness, and security. You'll partner with Product, Design, and Engineering leaders to shape product strategy. We want a collaborator who brings a clear technical and UX perspective-not just resourcing or delivery plans. You'll guide the team in making thoughtful scope and priority decisions, balancing user impact, velocity, and longterm technical health. We believe great products come from safetoexperiment cultures. You'll create that environment: validating assumptions early, learning from real user feedback, and treating each release as a chance to improve. You'll develop talent through regular feedback, mentorship, and career growth conversations. And you'll represent our iOS team in orglevel planning, advocating for investment, technical excellence, and a usercentered approach! ## Related Videos - [SwiftUI In Production](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/134-swiftui-in-production) - [From Zero to Mobile Developer in 45 Minutes With SwiftUI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/183-from-zero-to-mobile-developer-in-45-minutes-with-swiftui) - [Xcode development redefAIned](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100195-xcode-development-redefained) - [Hacking iOS and Developing for Airbnb with Nicolas Haunold, Software Engineer at Airbnb](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100361-hacking-ios-and-developing-for-airbnb-with-nicolas-haunold-software-engineer-at-airbnb) - [Unsolved mysteries between Usability and Accessibility in iOS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/737-unsolved-mysteries-between-usability-and-accessibility-in-ios) - [Your next 10x engineer isn't in your city.
