Computer Scientist

San Jose, CA Contractor
POSTED ON 4/29/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/9/2025

We have an exciting opportunity for a Computer Scientist with the top leading multimedia and creative software company in the world using cutting-edge tools and technologies, including industry-leading AI and creative software, empower millions of users to achieve their creative and business goals.


We’re looking for an experienced Backend Engineer to join Adobe as a Computer Scientist (Level 3/4) and spearhead the development of a next-generation agentic automation framework. This framework will ingest a conversation (via NLP/LLMs) where strategies and tactics are agreed upon, and autonomously translate those agreements into automated workflows.


For example, if the conversation concludes that a user needs to schedule a weekly video recording session and subsequently post the videos on Instagram, our framework should:

  • Recognize the need to schedule a weekly time slot.
  • Send a calendar invite to the user.
  • Facilitate video recording.
  • Connect to Instagram’s API or web interface.
  • Schedule the posts.
  • Monitor analytics to measure performance.


All of these steps must be orchestrated seamlessly through APIs, virtual browser sessions (RPA), and external service integrations. The right candidate will bring an in-depth understanding of agent-based architectures, advanced knowledge of LLM deployments, and the ability to build a robust, modular, and extensible automation framework from the ground up.


Responsibilities:

  • Design & Develop: Build a scalable backend automation framework that can translate conversational instructions into actionable tasks and orchestrate them using microservices, external APIs, scrapers, and RPA/VMs.
  • LLM Integration: Work closely with conversational AI and LLMs (e.g., GPT-like models) to parse user intent, extract tasks, and dynamically plan automation flows.
  • Modular Extensibility: Architect the framework to accommodate new services, APIs, or integrations without major refactoring—ensuring reusability and maintainability.
  • Performance Optimization: Ensure ultra-low latency and high availability of LLM-driven services in production, optimizing inference pipelines and agent operations.
  • API & RPA Coordination: Integrate diverse APIs (social platforms, calendars, CRMs, etc.), and manage web-based tasks via RPA or VM-based strategies to replicate human browser actions where no direct API is available.
  • Security & Compliance: Implement best practices around data security, governance, and compliance, ensuring sensitive user data and credentials are properly managed and protected.
  • Collaboration: Partner with frontend, DevOps, data scientists, and product teams to shape technical architecture, define roadmaps, and ensure smooth cross-functional delivery.
  • Monitoring & Analytics: Develop monitoring and logging solutions that give visibility into automation flows, success/failure rates, and system performance metrics.

Skills and Experience:

  • Bachelors Degree or equivalent work experience.
  • Agentic Framework Mastery: Proven track record with agent-based frameworks (e.g., LangChain or similar) to dynamically plan and orchestrate multi-step workflows.
  • LLM Production Experience: Extensive experience deploying and operating LLM models in production environments, ensuring low-latency inference and scalable infrastructure (e.g., GPU/CPU optimization, container orchestration, etc.).
  • Backend Engineering Excellence: 5 years of software development experience building high-performance backend systems in languages like Python, Go, Java, or Node.js.
  • API Design & Integration: Deep familiarity with REST, GraphQL, or gRPC, plus hands-on work integrating complex external APIs (including social media platforms and scheduling services).
  • RPA / Virtual Browsers: Proficiency with RPA tools, virtual machines, headless browsers, or similar methods for web automation when APIs are limited or unavailable.
  • Scraping & Data Processing: Solid experience with web scraping libraries or frameworks, ensuring robust handling of dynamic or JS-driven sites.
  • Microservices & Cloud: Experience designing and deploying microservices in a modern cloud environment (AWS, Azure, or GCP), including containerization (Docker/Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Systems Architecture: Ability to architect large-scale, distributed systems with a focus on modular, extensible designs.
  • Agile Mindset: Comfortable working in a fast-paced, iterative environment, adapting to evolving priorities and technologies.


Compensation:

  • Up to $105.63 per hour.
