Changing the world through digital experiences is what Adobe’s all about. We give everyone—from emerging artists to global brands—everything they need to design and deliver exceptional digital experiences! We’re passionate about empowering people to create beautiful and powerful images, videos, and apps, and transform how companies interact with customers across every screen.

We’re on a mission to hire the very best and are committed to creating exceptional employee experiences where everyone is respected and has access to equal opportunity. We realize that new ideas can come from everywhere in the organization, and we know the next big idea could be yours!

The Opportunity

The Corporate Strategy team works closely with Adobe’s top executives and our three business units (the Creative Cloud, Document Cloud, and Experience Cloud) to ensure that the company stays on its fast growth trajectory. We have played an active role in some of Adobe’s boldest and most strategic decisions, such as its well-publicized transition to cloud, expansion into Digital Marketing, and Adobe's positioning in the market around Generative AI.

Today, Adobe is at the forefront of digital experiences worldwide—by giving creatives everything they need to design amazing new content, or by enabling global enterprises in their digital transformation and the creation of experience businesses.

Your responsibilities will include developing product strategies, assessing technological trends, analyzing the competitive landscape, determining Adobe’s future strategic positioning, and crafting perspectives on market adjacencies, including strategies to pursue (build, buy, or partner). You will drive projects and cross-functional initiatives aimed at accelerating Adobe's long-term growth. This role offers the opportunity to support senior executives, providing insights into their decision-making processes. It also provides exposure to operational and general management roles within the company.
