The Opportunity Bridgeway is Adobe's agentic marketing partner for small businesses and solopreneurs - photographers, estheticians, fitness coaches, bakers, contractors - the people running a business with no marketing team behind them. We're building software that acts like a great marketing hire, not another tool to learn. We're looking for a design engineer who lives at the intersection of design and code. Bridgeway runs like a startup - a small, talent-dense team bringing startup speed inside Adobe, with Adobe's platform and reach behind it. If you want early-stage pace and ownership plus enterprise-scale resources, this is that combination. Work directly with product and engineering to prototype, build, and ship the experiences that make Bridgeway feel like a partner. Our engineers already build with AI-native workflows, and we want design at that same clock speed - motivated by generating options, not just refining one, so "which direction" becomes today's conversation instead of next week's. What great looks like We look for builders who have shipped - people who've launched something real and are proud of the outcome - more than a specific title or pedigree. Everyone here operates across three lenses: product, design, and engineering. That means real design sense, production-quality code, and product-manager-level reasoning, without outsourcing any of it. What sets people apart isn't which of the three they can do - it's which one they lead with. Taste and judgment sharp enough to orchestrate AI-assisted prototyping at high speed while holding a bar most teams miss even working slowly. Taste Identify what good looks like before it exists - faced with dozens of AI-generated directions, can immediately spot the two worth refining. Judgment Know what to build, not just how. Understand our user - a solo business owner with 90 seconds to spare - well enough to make the call without a committee. Speed of orchestration Operate AI tools like instruments - fast prototyping loops, rapid evaluation, continuous refinement - getting through in days what would take a team weeks, without cutting corners. Ownership breadth Own a design surface end to end: concept, prototype, production code, and the system it plugs into. The Challenge Turn a single problem into several distinct, high-fidelity prototypes so the team chooses between real options, not one idea presented one way Build production-quality UI components and interactions in code, so what we're evaluating is close to what we'd ship Ground decisions in first-principles thinking about our users - solo business owners with 90 seconds to spare Champion simplicity: cut, collapse, and clarify so the product feels effortless for non-designers and non-technologists Bridge design and engineering - translating concepts into real code, and feasibility into the design process from the start Evolve Bridgeway's design system so the team ships faster and quality compounds instead of resetting each screen Two things matter most in this role: 1. Systems - Can you build a design system and prototyping workflow that compounds - so every new prototype starts stronger than the last? 2. Review - Can you judge quality at an unreasonably high bar - spotting the two options worth building out of a wall of AI-generated ones, and saying why? What is needed to succeed Comfortable in Figma and a code editor - and increasingly reach for the code editor first Strong front-end skills (React, TypeScript, CSS, animation) Strong sense of build - an understanding of craft, hierarchy, restraint - and can explain why something works Naturally explore multiple directions before converging, and you'd rather show than describe Prototype in hours, not days, using AI tools without cutting corners on quality A bias toward simplicity and love designing for real people - SMB owners, not power users Think in systems and build reusable components, not one-off screens Genuinely excited about AI agents and new interaction paradigms, not just AI as a buzzword If interested in applying please provide links to projects you have completed About Adobe Adobe empowers everyone to create through innovative platforms and tools that unleash creativity, productivity and personalized customer experiences.
