Adobe DXP Architect

We’re looking for a highly technical Adobe DXP Architect to lead the design and delivery of enterprise digital experience platforms for large, complex organizations. This is a hands-on, client-facing role for someone who is equally comfortable in a stakeholder workshop and in a technical design review. You’ll understand how the business operates, shape the target architecture across the Adobe Experience Cloud, and guide delivery teams through to a production-ready, scalable platform. You’ll work on enterprise-scale transformation programmes with multiple workstreams, demanding stakeholders, and real accountability for outcomes. We want someone who brings a point of view, not just someone who executes a specification. You should have shaped solutions, defended architectural decisions, and seen them through go-live. What You'll Do ❏ Lead discovery with business and technology stakeholders to understand objectives, current-state landscapes, and customer experience requirements. ❏ Define end-to-end target architectures across Adobe Experience Manager (Sites, Assets, Forms) and Adobe Experience Platform (RT-CDP, Journey Optimizer, Target, Analytics / CJA). ❏ Translate business and experience requirements into scalable, secure, and maintainable technical solutions. ❏ Make and document key architectural decisions, including AEM as a Cloud Service vs. on-premise/AMS, headless vs. hybrid delivery, and data and identity strategy. ❏ Design integrations between Adobe products and enterprise platforms such as CRM, commerce, ERP, CDPs, identity providers, and data warehouses, using APIs, event-driven patterns, and middleware. ❏ Define data models, XDM schemas, identity resolution, and audience segmentation approaches that support personalization and journey orchestration. ❏ Provide technical leadership to development teams, including code and design reviews, development standards, CI/CD via Cloud Manager, and environment strategy. ❏ Ensure solutions meet performance, security, accessibility, and data privacy requirements, including regional data residency where applicable. ❏ Contribute to solutioning, estimation, and scoping of new phases and change requests. ❏ Prototype and validate approaches before full implementation to reduce delivery risk. ❏ Identify opportunities to use AI capabilities across the Adobe stack, such as AI Assistant, generative content, and predictive audiences, where they create real business value. ❏ Advise clients on platform roadmap, licensing implications, and adoption best practice. ❏ Produce high-quality architecture artefacts, including solution designs, integration specifications, and decision records. ❏ Collaborate with UX, data, marketing, and delivery leads throughout discovery, design, build, and optimization.
