Agentic Governance extends these foundations to AI agents: who an agent is, what it may do, and a verifiable record of what it did.\nEnterprises are putting AI agents to work on their data, and AI regulation is setting the standard for governing them. This domain is new and owned from Bucharest: you will set how agents are identified, authorized, and audited across Adobe Experience Platform, with patterns other Adobe teams adopt.\nWhat You'll Do\nDesign and build governance, security and privacy services, integrating with existing technical services.\nDrive AI-first architecture across teams: define how agents, tools and MCP servers are authenticated, scoped and observed.\nBe the domain's technical leader: lead design, architecture, security, and threat-model reviews across business units, set the test strategy and code standards, and decide on ambiguous problems.\nUse AI-assisted development responsibly, and raise the team's practice with evals, guardrails, and quality gates for the agentic components we ship.\nMentor engineers and help shape hiring.\nWhat You Need to Succeed\n10+ years of professional software engineering experience, including technical leadership across teams.\nDeep, hands-on expertise in identity and authorization: OAuth 2.0/OIDC, RBAC/ABAC, and policy engines (e.g. OPA, Cedar, or comparable). Applying them to workload or agent identity is a strong plus.\nPractical knowledge of agentic systems in production, and can explain trade-offs for tools, guardrails, latency, costs and failure modes.\nExpert in Python, with working proficiency in Java.\nLead the architecture of distributed production services on AWS and/or Azure and Kubernetes: data stores, reliability, security and observability.\nClear written and verbal communication in English.\nPreferred Qualifications\nFormal design authority or RFC authorship across organizations or business units.\nResponsible AI frameworks (NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act).\nPrivacy engineering: data minimization and GDPR.\nOpen-source or published work in authorization, policy or agent security.\nAbout Adobe\nAdobe empowers everyone to create through innovative platforms and tools that unleash creativity, productivity and personalized customer experiences.
