The Opportunity
We are seeking a skilled Software Engineer to join the Adobe Express Mobile App team. We're looking for outstanding Android engineers with a passion for making creative tools that impact people’s lives and a keen curiosity for how agentic tools will transform how we develop software.
What you'll Do
- Design and implement major user-facing features in Kotlin or Swift, and sometimes Typescript in our hybrid web/native application stack
- Build intelligent agents that instrument code and analyze hard to pin down performance and stability metrics — spotting trends and anomalies a human would need days to surface.
- Make the mobile app experience sing with features not achievable in the web stack alone.
- Use AI-assisted and agentic coding tools to accelerate delivery: steer agents, critically review and validate generated output, and refactor into maintainable, production-quality code — without lowering the bar on craft.
- Define quality planning for the entire app lifecycle, not just before release.
- Collaborate with Product Management and Designers to define the product roadmap and assess new technologies.
What you need to succeed
- 3+ years of shipping software development experience, including commercial mobile applications developed using Kotlin or Swift
- Experience with TypeScript or Javascript development
- Driven to achieve objectives, with a keenness for picking up new technologies and adjusting promptly to evolving needs and surroundings
- Comfortable in a fast-paced environment, taking on multiple roles with autonomy and ownership
- Strong grasp of architectural patterns (MVC, MVVM), design patterns, and object-oriented programming
- Proven track record investigating complex, hard-to-reproduce issues in shipping software
- Experience with multi-threading programming and memory management
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and automation testing frameworks
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with hybrid web/native app development
- Familiarity with Lit, MobX, Web Components, and modern browser-based tech stack
- Experience working on mobile web apps, especially in resource-constrained environments
