Led by VP and Fellow Marc Levoy, this relatively new team is at the forefront of developing next-generation image and video editing features powered by AI, computer vision, and computational photography.

The team has already demonstrated impressive results, recently launching an AI-based feature for removing window reflections from photographs, which received extensive positive press coverage from outlets like The Verge, CNET, and garnered attention from influential tech reviewers. Earlier in 2024, they also launched an AI model that automatically adjusts the tone and color of photographs, providing SLR/MIR camera users with high dynamic range rendering.

You'll be working with researchers to develop and optimize AI models, translate code between Python and C++, and ensure efficient deployment across various platforms from cloud servers to mobile devices.

This is an exceptional opportunity for someone passionate about both AI and photography who wants to make a broad impact, putting cutting-edge imaging features in the hands of millions of users worldwide. You'll be joining a talented team that's actively changing the photography industry through technological innovation.

The role offers competitive compensation reflecting Adobe's position as an industry leader, with a salary range of $133,900 - $242,000 annually, varying based on location and experience. Adobe provides comprehensive benefits and maintains a strong commitment to diversity, inclusion, and employee growth.
