In this role you will serve as the technical authority for all AEP capability domains — spanning data ingestion architecture, identity resolution, real-time segmentation, federated data strategies, and platform governance — translating complex business objectives into scalable, future-proof AEP solutions. You will operate at the intersection of strategy and delivery: partnering with stakeholders and programme sponsors on digital experience roadmaps while providing hands-on technical leadership to implementation teams across schema design, Flow Service API orchestration, Query Service / Data Distiller patterns, and Federated Audience Composition.
You will set and own the AEP architectural standards, review patterns, and governance frameworks that underpin enterprise RTCDP programmes. Roles & Responsibilities: - Expected to be a SME with deep knowledge and experience. - Should have Influencing and Advisory skills. - Responsible for team decisions. - Engage with multiple teams and contribute on key decisions. - Expected to provide solutions to problems that apply across multiple teams.
- Collaborate with stakeholders to align technology strategies with business objectives. - Mentor and guide junior team members to foster professional growth and knowledge sharing. Professional & Technical Skills: - 10+ years of enterprise software architecture experience 5+ years leading AEP / Adobe Experience Cloud architecture on large-scale implementations. - Authority-level knowledge of AEP platform architecture — XDM schema design, dataset lifecycle, Profile store, Identity Graph, Segmentation Engine, and Destination framework.
- Proven delivery of end-to-end RTCDP programmes — from platform onboarding and ingestion architecture through to segmentation, activation, and operational observability. - Strong command of AEP Source Connectors — Adobe-native (Target, Audience Manager, Analytics) and third-party (Redshift, Reltio, Veeva, Salesforce, SAP, Marketo). - Experience defining AEP sandbox strategy, SDLC pipeline, and environment governance for enterprise programmes with multiple development teams.
- Hands-on architecture experience with the AEP Flow Service API — designing and governing the full object lifecycle across batch, streaming, and CDC ingestion patterns. - Proven ability to architect custom AEP source connectors using the Sources SDK for proprietary systems with no native connector. - Deep expertise in AEP HTTP Streaming Inlet API authentication, XDM payload contracts, and inlet monitoring — and in Edge Network Server API for server-side and server-to-server collection.
- Experience designing event-driven ingestion architectures using Adobe I/O Events, SNS/SQS, and Event Grid with serverless transform layers. - Expert-level AEP API authentication design — IMS OAuth 2.0 client credentials, API key lifecycle, JWT flows — and secrets management integration (Azure Key Vault, AWS Secrets Manager). - Mastery of all Flow Service API object types and dependency order ability to define enterprise naming conventions, JSON payload templates, and governance policies governing their use.
- Experience defining Data Prep mapping standards — XDM field path conv
