The Opportunity
Adobe is reimagining the future of creativity — where generative AI, intelligent agents, and human imagination work hand in hand. As Director, Product Management – Agentic Product, you will lead Adobe's strategy for creative experiences powered by AI agents across the third-party AI ecosystem. You'llshape how Adobe's creative intelligence reaches users in entirely new contexts: not through Adobe's own surfaces, but through the platforms, assistants, and vertical applications that are redefining how people work and create!
Adobe's creative capabilities are increasingly foundational to the AI ecosystem. Our agentic product team packages and publishes Adobe's unique creativity and productivity capabilities across a rapidly expanding landscape of third-party AI surfaces — AI chat portals, operating systems, and industry-specific applications. The mission: package Adobe's agentic capabilities — tools, skills, and orchestration layers — into compelling, well-crafted experiences that drive adoption,demonstrateAdobe's unique value, andestablishAdobe as the creative capability layer of the agentic internet.
This work requires deep fluency in the emerging standards of agentic packaging — MCP, skills manifests, hero prompts, plugin architecture — as well as sharp commercial instinct for how to position and sequence Adobe's capabilities across multiple partner surfaces. It also requires a forward-looking perspective on entirely new distribution models: what does an "agent forhire" look like in a vertical marketplace? What new business modelsdoesthat unlock that Adobedoesn'thave today? Partnerships with the world's leading AI platforms, high-velocity ship timelines tied to major platform launches, and an executive-visibility release cadence make this one of the highest-impact PM seats at Adobe right now.
This is a rare opportunity to define Adobe's presence in the next generation of creative software distribution — one that compounds Adobe's reach while ensuring every third-party experience reflects the quality and creative intelligence Adobe is known for.
