Job summary

Adobe’s Data Science team is seeking a summer intern to help apply AI/ML to big customer data and tackle business problems like go-to-market strategies and product engagement. Interns will work in a co-located hybrid model, splitting time between the office and home to maximize collaboration and experience.

You’ll turn business needs into architecture options, prototype AI tools, and help ensure architectural guidance is easy to use across domains.

Qualifications

• Enrolled full-time pursuing a BS or MS in CS/CE/EE or equivalent.
• Self-motivation.
• Strong technical background with analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Eagerness to research and learn new technologies.

Responsibilities

• Turn business needs into architecture options. Work with architects and business partners to understand requirements. Then help write up solution options that weigh architecture standards, readiness, implementation effort and total cost of ownership.
• Build AI tools for architecture work. Prototype AI assistants or agents that help with architecture reviews, risk analysis and documentation, such as summarizing designs, checking them against standards and flagging gaps early.
• Make architecture guidance easier to use. Apply AI to our standards, reference patterns and architecture repositories (for example, LeanIX) so teams can find and use the guidance on their own.
• Work across business domains. Partner with Adobe architects across Marketing, Sales, Post-Sales and Finance to design solutions that help customers get started, renew and get more value from Adobe.
• Evaluate new technology. Research and test new AI and platform technologies, such as agent frameworks, MCP integration and AI observability tools. Share recommendations that feed into the Enterprise Architecture roadmap.
• Share what you learn. Present your prototypes, findings and recommendations to architects and leaders at the end of your internship.
