About the job
Exciting opportunity for a Principal Product Manager, GenAI Landscape Intelligence, and drive the future of generative AI at Adobe. Lead 3P model evaluation, partner engagement, and strategic consultation for creative asset workflows. Shape product strategy, publish actionable insights, and represent Adobe as a trusted advisor in the evolving AI landscape.
Responsibilities
Maintain a comprehensive, always-current view of the third-party generative AI landscape across image, video, audio, vector, 3D, and document modalities.
Develop and continuously refine a structured evaluation framework that maps model capabilities to specific user needs and creative workflow stages.
Track model releases, capability changes, pricing shifts, and licensing terms across all major and emerging 3P providers.
Build and maintain direct relationships with 3P AI model providers, attending briefings, early- access programs, and industry events.
Conduct primary research through hands-on model testing, structured benchmarking, and qualitative user research to validate provider claims.
Represent Adobe as a sophisticated, credible evaluator in conversations with external AI labs and emerging startups.
Author and distribute high-quality intelligence reports — including landscape overviews, model spotlights, and head-to-head comparisons — consumed by senior leadership and product teams.
Operate a regular cadence of insights delivery (e.g., monthly landscape digest, quarterly deep- dives) that keeps Adobe ahead of market shifts.
Build internal tools or systems to prioritize and surface model intelligence efficiently across the organization.
Serve as an embedded advisor to Firefly and Creative Cloud product teams evaluating 3P model integration opportunities.
Provide concrete, data-backed recommendations on which models are best suited for specific user jobs-to-be-done.
Qualifications
Minimum
8+ years of product management experience, with at least 3 years at the Principal or equivalent senior-IC level.
Deep, hands-on familiarity with the generative AI ecosystem — you can speak fluently about model architectures, capabilities, and tradeoffs without relying on vendor talking points.
Demonstrated experience conducting rigorous comparative model evaluations or competitive analysis, ideally across multiple creative modalities.
Proven track record of producing high-quality written intelligence or research artifacts consumed by executive and cross-functional audiences.
Strong external relationship-building skills; comfortable representing Adobe in direct partner and vendor conversations.
Experience working cross-functionally with engineering, design, legal, and business development partners.
Preferred
Prior experience in an AI research, applied science, or technical PM role within a creative software or media technology company.
Familiarity with creative professional workflows across design, photography, video, illustration, or similar subject areas.
Experience with structured data analysis or lightweight tooling (e.g., Python, SQL, no-code platforms) to support intelligence synthesis.
Background in competitive intelligence, market research, or technology analyst roles.
