The opportunity

Are you a systems thinker who is excited about GenAI and new technology? The Firefly design team is seeking a designer to help us build the best tools for creativity. We are a collaborative team that is passionate about building approachable tools for creativity. We believe GenAI should accelerate creativity and not replace it; this role will play a key role in the future.

What you’ll do

• Explore design ideas via sketches, storyboards, wireframes, and prototypes. Use feedback and research to refine and iterate toward product objectives. Pair strong communication skills with a user-centered perspective in order to influence and persuade.

• Dig in with prototypers, engineers and researchers to understand the capabilities of new and developing technologies to match user needs.

What you need to succeed

• An understanding of creator tools and experience using them. 

• College degree or equivalent practical experience in design with an emphasis on graphic design, HCI, or related design field

• Mastery of Figma, Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and other design tools such as Keynote or sketch.

• Enthusiasm to work closely and iteratively with engineering teams to bring the vision to life

• Strong interpersonal, written, and oral communication skills and storytelling skills

• Willingness and ability to be a part of the creative spirit of the Adobe Design team

• An appreciation for design craft and the ability to blend that with a strong intuition for business

• A real passion for collaborating across many subject areas and teams
