Staff Software Engineer

Overview

Technical lead to own the technical direction of GE HealthCare's global web platform built on Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Sites and AEM Edge Delivery Services (EDS), leading the migration of high-volume marketing properties to EDS and bringing AI into everyday engineering practice.

What you'll do

• Own the end-to-end architecture across AEM as a Cloud Service and EDS, including the decision framework for which properties belong on each and how they coexist (CDN routing, shared design system, shared integrations).
• Lead migration and creation of sites, microsites and marketing pages to EDS, with a focus on performance, authoring simplicity and lower run cost.
• Set coding standards, review designs and code, and make the hard technical trade-offs between speed, quality and maintainability.
• Guide integrations with commerce (e.g., SAP Hybris), search (e.g., Algolia), Adobe Analytics, Adobe Target/CDP, Marketo, Salesforce and tag management (GTM), plus consent/compliance tooling.
• Actively use AI coding assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor) to accelerate component and block development, refactoring, documentation and test creation, and set team guidelines for using them safely and well.
• Design and refine prompts, prompt templates and lightweight agents/automations for repeatable engineering and content tasks (e.g., content migration, page/block scaffolding, metadata and alt-text generation, QA checks).
• Support AI-driven experiences on the site, such as conversational/concierge assistants, AI-assisted search and personalization, including API integration, guardrails, and evaluation of output quality.
• Bring a clear point of view on where AI should assist, accelerate or automate, and where it should not, with attention to security, privacy, IP and regulatory compliance.
• Lead a team of developers (internal and partner), plan sprints with Product, and deliver predictable releases against time-bound commitments such as global launches and events.
• Build an automation-first quality approach: unit tests, Playwright (or similar) end-to-end tests, Lighthouse/Core Web Vitals performance budgets in CI/CD, and accessibility checks (WCAG 2.1 AA).
• Own Cloud Manager pipelines, environments, release management and production support, including incident response and root-cause analysis.
• Mentor engineers, grow EDS and AI skills across the team, and act as the technical voice in conversations with business stakeholders and leadership.

What you'll need

• 10–14 years of web/software engineering experience.
• At least 8+ years on Adobe AEM (Sites, ideally AEM as a Cloud Service).
• 2+ years in a technical lead or architect role.
• Hands-on experience building on AEM Edge Delivery Services, including blocks, document-based or Universal Editor authoring, aem.live tooling, and performance tuning.
• Strong core AEM skills: Java, OSGi, Sling Models, HTL, Core Components, Dispatcher, content and component architecture, multi-site/multi-language management (MSM).
• Strong front-end skills: modern JavaScript (ES6+), HTML5, CSS3, responsive design, and Core Web Vitals optimization.
• Demonstrated, practical use of AI tools in day-to-day development, plus solid prompt-design skills, with real examples of what you built or sped up with AI.
• Experience integrating REST/GraphQL APIs, headless delivery, and third-party platforms (search, commerce, analytics, marketing automation).
• CI/CD and Git experience (Adobe Cloud Manager, Jenkins or GitHub Actions), and comfort with Agile/Scrum delivery.
• Clear communicator who can explain technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders and influence without direct authority.

Nice to have

• Adobe certifications (AEM Sites Developer / Architect).
• Experience with Adobe Target, Adobe Analytics/CJA, Real-Time CDP or AEM Assets/Dynamic Media.
• Experience with Algolia or other search platforms, and with SAP Commerce (Hybris) integrations.
• Experience building with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI), RAG patterns, or agentic workflows.
• Background in regulated industries (healthcare, life sciences, financial services), including consent management, privacy and compliance tooling such as Evidon and GTM governance.
• Experience migrating from other CMS platforms (Sitecore, WordPress) to AEM.
