1. Position Summary

The AEM Lead for Platform Enablement is a strategic technical role responsible for the health, scalability, and standardization of the Adobe Experience Manager ecosystem. Unlike a project-specific lead, you will own the "Platform as a Product." Your primary goal is to empower multiple delivery teams by providing a stable, governed, and high-performing AEM environment. You will define the "Golden Path" for development, automate platform setup, and act as the primary technical liaison between the organization and Adobe’s engineering teams.

• Architecture Governance: Define and maintain the Global Reference Architecture, ensuring all project teams adhere to Sling, OSGi, and Oak repository best practices.
• CI/CD Leadership: Direct the configuration of Adobe Cloud Manager, including custom functional tests, UI testing suites, and code quality gates.
• Security & Compliance: Oversee Dispatcher security filter configurations, SSL management, and integration with Enterprise Identity Providers (Okta/Azure AD).

B. Enablement & Best Practices

• The "Enablement Playbook": Create and maintain a centralized Wiki/Repository of coding standards, branching strategies, and component reuse guidelines.
• Component Library Management: Oversee the "Core Component" strategy to ensure teams are not reinventing the wheel and are utilizing OOTB (Out of the Box) features effectively.
• Performance Tuning: Establish baseline performance metrics (Core Web Vitals) and provide guidance to teams on optimizing caching and CDN (Cloudflare/Akamai) strategies.

C. Adobe Liaison & Roadmap Strategy

• Adobe Partnership: Serve as the Primary Technical Contact for Adobe Customer Success Managers (CSMs) and Technical Account Managers (TAMs).
• Roadmap Alignment: Evaluate upcoming Adobe releases (e.g., Edge Delivery Services, Franklin, or AI-integrated features) and conduct Impact Assessments for the current tech stack.
• Escalation Management: Lead the resolution of platform-level "Blocker" tickets with Adobe Support, ensuring timely RCA (Root Cause Analysis) for any environment outages.

3. Required Experience & Skills

Technical Skills

• Expertise: 8+ years of experience with AEM (6.5 or AEMaaCS).
• Cloud Native: Deep understanding of Adobe Cloud Manager and AEM as a Cloud Service architecture.
• Integrations: Proven experience integrating AEM with the broader Adobe Experience Cloud (Target, Analytics, Launch/Tags, and AEP).
• DevOps: Strong knowledge of Maven, Jenkins/GitHub Actions, and Dispatcher optimization.
