Software Engineers perform development work across the technology stack (both front-end/back-end expertise). They are versatile in how they can add value, demonstrating the ability to manage the completion of projects that involve databases, back-end services, or the development of front-end applications. They should be able to demonstrate a strong understanding of emerging technologies to support the development of new solutions. Software Engineers understand the full technology stack and underlying applications, services, and databases in order to ensure optimal performance.
The Adobe Journeys Software Engineer will perform development work across the Adobe Journey Optimizer stack. The successful software engineer will demonstrate the ability to manage the completion of projects that involve databases, back-end services, and OO/UI development. The individual in this role will design, build, enhance, and implement solutions in a fast-paced Agile environment participating in scrum ceremonies and working closely with a highly-motivated team.
