Job description
This is a remote position.
Experience Level: 6–8+ Years overall, with 4+ Years on Adobe Experience Manager (AEM)
Work Hours: 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM (Melbourne, Australia Time)
Employment Type: Permanent Remote

Salary: Negotiable
Notice Period: Immediate Joiners Only (Less than 30 days)
Role Overview:We are seeking an AI-first Senior Full Stack Engineer to own AEM builds end-to-end, frontend to backend, headless to hosted, for clients who expect senior judgement rather than a pair of hands. This role requires daily, demonstrable use of agentic AI tooling as your primary way of working, the ability to set an agent up to succeed on a real codebase, and the ability to lift the AI maturity of the engineers around you.
Key Responsibilities:
Deliver every stage of your work AI-first, analysis, design, code, tests, documentation, and release notes, using agentic tooling as the default and your engineering judgement as the quality gate
Set up and maintain repository context and rules files, reusable prompts and skills, MCP integrations, and sub-agent patterns for the team
Review AI-generated output with the same rigour as human code; own what you ship regardless of what generated it
Design and build AEM Sites components, templates, and Sling Models across authoring and delivery tiers
Configure and extend AEM Assets and Content Hub, including DAM workflows and metadata schemas
Develop backend services in Java, integrating AEM with downstream CRM and enterprise systems
Deliver AEM Headless solutions using Content Fragments and GraphQL, structuring content with Schema.org markup for discoverability
Own delivery performance end-to-end: Dispatcher/CDN caching strategy, page weight, and Core Web Vitals against agreed budgets
Operate and deploy within AEM as a Cloud Service (AEMaaCS), including Cloud Manager pipelines and Dispatcher configuration
Own features end-to-end, from technical design through build, testing, deployment, and hypercare
Engage directly with client stakeholders, translating business requirements into technical solutions
Mentor engineers and contribute to AEM delivery standards, reusable patterns, and AI playbooks
Qualifications and Requirements:
6–8+ years in full stack software engineering, with at least 4 years dedicated to Adobe Experience Manager (AEM)
Demonstrable, current, daily use of AI and agentic coding tools across code, tests, documentation, and analysis, with sound judgement on where AI helps and where it must not be trusted
AEM Sites component and template development across frontend and backend: Sling Models, HTL/Sightly, client libraries, OSGi services, workflow models, JCR content modelling
AEM Assets and Content Hub, including DAM workflows and metadata governance; AEM Headless via Content Fragments and GraphQL
Strong core Java (Java 8+), Spring, RESTful API design; integration with CRM platforms (Salesforce or Dynamics) and Adobe Analytics
React JS or an equivalent framework; component-based design systems with documentation and governance; WCAG 2.1 AA applied consistently
AEM as a Cloud Service (AEMaaCS), including Cloud Manager pipelines, Dispatcher configuration, CDN, DNS, and environment topology
Test automation with Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium; working knowledge of security and penetration testing
Client-facing consulting or agency experience; excellent written and verbal communication with technical and non-technical stakeholders
At least one current Adobe Certification (e.g. AEM Sites Developer, AEM Developer, or equivalent)
Nice to have: custom agents/MCP servers/skills you've built for a team, Edge Delivery Services, AEM Forms, Multi Site Manager/localisation, Node.js/microservices, Adobe Experience Platform tools (Target, AJO, CJA), Workfront, or other CMS/Salesforce platforms
