Software Development Engineer 4 New York, New York, United States of America R163998 01/05/2026 Job associated with 2 categories Engineering and Product Our Company Changing the world through digital experiences is what Adobe’s all about. We give everyone—from emerging artists to global brands—everything they need to design and deliver exceptional digital experiences! We’re passionate about empowering people to create beautiful and powerful images, videos, and apps, and transform how companies interact with customers across every screen. We’re on a mission to hire the very best and are committed to creating exceptional employee experiences where everyone is respected and has access to equal opportunity. We realize that new ideas can come from everywhere in the organization, and we know the next big idea could be yours! THE OPPORTUNITY Engineering at Frame.io, an Adobe Company, is about more than just writing code - it's crafting products that inspire creativity and allow our users to do great work. We care deeply about how our products are built, how they look, how they feel, and how they function. We are looking for a senior backend engineer who can turn ideas into beautifully written code that other people—or you, six months into the future—will find easy to comprehend and modify. You will: - Model a rich and expansive domain. You’ll design and implement data models for every facet of the post-production domain, as well as powerful systems to keep the Frame.io application efficient and stable. - Contribute to a mature Elixir application. Frame.io is home to one of the largest Elixir applications in the world, and senior engineers here have the opportunity to design highly concurrent, fault-tolerant systems. - Own the implementation of amazing features. You’ll work directly with designers, client engineers, and product owners to bring new features to life. You’ll provide guidance and input into the process of building and deploying their vision, as well as writing the code that makes it real. - Guide and mentor your fellow engineers. You’ll be an authority on practices for the engineering team, as well as an important leader for other engineers - backend and otherwise. Our team is highly productive and committed to mutual support, collaboration, and knowledge-sharing. We are dedicated to a work environment where we can all grow and learn, and combine this commitment with a dedication to quality engineering and sound, informed technical decisions. We understand that the best code moves our business forward, and we make every decision about the backend in the context of the product that everybody is building together. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Write solid and scalable code. - Doing regular code reviews. - Building new features and services in Elixir. - Providing technical leadership to junior engineers. WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED - Extensive experience in designing and developing multiple large-scale Web application backend systems. - Deep experience in overall system design and implementation—how they scale, how they should fit together, and how they’re likely to break. - Familiarity with common API and services design standards. - Experience in PostgreSQL or MySQL outside of an ORM, including the ability to design SQL queries for performance and efficiency. - Experience in modifying and migrating legacy components with little to no downtime. - Ability to analyze and solve difficult problems across the backend. - Experience in Elixir or a comparable functional programming language, or interest and a deep desire to learn. If you are an avid learner, an excellent human, and passionate about functional programming - we want to hear from you!
