Principal Technical Architect @ Adobe

Remote, Arizona


Who?

Principal Technical Architect with 8+ years building and shipping enterprise-scale e-commerce and cloud systems. At Adobe, I've led some of the first production implementations of next-generation Adobe products — working at the intersection of architecture, client strategy, and hands-on engineering. I know how large systems fail, how to migrate them without breaking things, and how to build organizations around them.

Outside of client work, I build. I'm developing production applications on Cloudflare's edge platform — Workers, D1, Durable Objects, Workflows — and working deeply with LLMs and AI agent architectures. I'm looking for roles where technical depth and direct impact aren't mutually exclusive: forward-deployed engineering, technical product work, or founding-stage teams where the problems are genuinely hard.
