About the role
The Opportunity Our iOS mobile team is part of the Adobe Video organization, where we build video creation and editing experiences for storytellers across desktop, mobile, and web. We move fast, care deeply about craft—and we’re hiring a Senior Engineering Manager to help lead that work on iOS! We want someone who will help define both what we build and how we build it. That includes establishing modern engineering practices and embracing AI‑assisted development to improve quality and speed. We’re looking for a manager who empowers their team to ship great iOS experiences while encouraging use of AI tools to move fast. We think you’ll thrive here if you bring people leadership and technical fluency. You communicate clearly across disciplines. And you enjoy working through trade‑offs with engineers and product partners to deliver the best outcome for customers. What You’ll Do You’ll lead, grow, and support a talented team of senior iOS engineers. Together, we build creative, user‑facing features—from early product and interaction design through execution and production quality. You’ll set technical and quality standards for the iOS organization. That means ensuring architectural coherence, maintainability, and performance across the codebase. We also need someone who can coach engineers on effective use of AI‑assisted development tools and agentic workflows. You’ll help the team accelerate responsibly while maintaining rigorous standards for code quality, correctness, and security. You’ll partner with Product, Design, and Engineering leaders to shape product strategy. We want a collaborator who brings a clear technical and UX perspective—not just resourcing or delivery plans. You’ll guide the team in making thoughtful scope and priority decisions, balancing user impact, velocity, and long‑term technical health. We believe great products come from safe‑to‑experiment cultures. You’ll create that environment: validating assumptions early, learning from real user feedback, and treating each release as a chance to improve. You’ll develop talent through regular feedback, mentorship, and career growth conversations. And you’ll represent our iOS team in org‑level planning, advocating for investment, technical excellence, and a user‑centered approach! What We’re Looking For • 10+ years of experience shipping Apple applications, with significant time delivering complex, production‑scale iOS products. • Experience managing and growing teams of senior engineers, including hiring, performance management, coaching, and career development. • Technical fluency in Swift, SwiftUI, UIKit, and the iOS SDK. You can review, guide, and influence architectural decisions even when not coding daily. • Product instincts and UX sensibility—familiarity with Apple Human Interface Guidelines, a keen eye for interaction quality, and a feel for why details matter to users. • Comfort operating in ambiguous problem spaces. You help teams move from unclear problem statements to crisp execution plans. • Experience using AI‑assisted development tools at a team level—setting expectations, workflows, and guardrails for AI‑generated output. • A clear, compelling communicator who translates between technical, product, and design perspectives. • An understanding of mobile video editing workflows—or the curiosity and drive to develop that understanding quickly. Even Better If You Have A track record of influencing product direction, technical strategy, or design outcomes beyond your immediate team. Experience evolving engineering processes on growing teams (quality, reliability, release management). Experience building creative tools, video production software, or editing workflows. Hands‑on experience using video editing applications, wit
