About the Role :

We are seeking a hands-on Adobe Workfront Engineer at the SAL2 level to translate defined business processes and solution designs into scalable, production-ready Workfront configurations. The role is centered on independently configuring end-to-end workflows and implementing supported out-of-the-box (OOTB) or native integrations across the Adobe ecosystem.

Key Responsibilities :

- Independently translate approved business processes, user stories, and functional requirements into working Adobe Workfront configurations.

- Configure projects, tasks, programs, portfolios, templates, milestones, statuses, calendars, users, teams, groups, job roles, and access controls.

- Build reusable project and workflow templates that promote consistent execution across teams.

- Configure custom forms, fields, metadata structures, views, filters, groupings, reports, and dashboards.

- Troubleshoot configuration, permissions, routing, reporting, notification, and user-access issues.

- Apply configuration standards and avoid unnecessary customization or operational overhead.

Workflow Implementation :

- Configure end-to-end workflows covering intake, planning, assignment, execution, review, approval, delivery, and closure.

- Implement request queues, queue topics, routing rules, task dependencies, milestones, assignments, approvals, notifications, and workflow statuses.

- Convert process maps and functional designs into executable Workfront workflows with limited day-to-day supervision.

- Validate workflow behavior across user roles, teams, business scenarios, and exception paths.

- Identify whether requirements can be fulfilled through native Workfront functionality or need additional automation or integration.

- Participate in design discussions and provide implementation-level recommendations based on Workfront platform capabilities.

OOTB and Native Integrations :

- Independently configure, validate, and support Workfront native integrations, including AEM Assets/DAM, Frame.io, and Adobe Creative Cloud applications.

- Configure native integrations in accordance with approved functional and technical designs.

- Configure supporting Workfront metadata, object relationships, permissions, and mappings required by the integration.

- Validate the exchange or availability of assets, assignments, project information, and workflow data across connected applications.

- Perform functional and integration testing and independently troubleshoot configuration or connectivity issues.

- Document configuration settings, dependencies, assumptions, limitations, and operational support requirements.

- Escalate requirements that cannot be achieved through native capabilities and require Fusion, APIs, webhooks, or custom engineering.

Workfront Fusion and Integration Awareness :

- Understand when workflow requirements exceed native Workfront functionality.

- Support straightforward Workfront Fusion scenarios where appropriate and within the approved design.

- Work effectively with integration architects and specialists on complex automation or bespoke integrations.

- Understand common REST API, webhook, JSON, authentication, error-handling, and integration troubleshooting concepts.

- Diagnose issues across the boundary between Workfront configuration and downstream integration logic.

Testing, Deployment, and Quality :

- Develop configuration-level test scenarios from functional requirements and acceptance criteria.

- Conduct unit, functional, workflow, role/access, regression, and integration testing.

- Support user acceptance testing, triage defects, and implement configuration fixes.

- Prepare deployment checklists and validate configurations after release.

- Assist with production stabilization and resolve configuration-related incidents.

Documentation and Knowledge Transfer :

- Maintain configuration documentation for workflows, templates, custom forms, queues, approvals, dashboards, security, and integrations.

- Create configuration inventories, mapping documents, test evidence, release notes, and support handover materials.

- Provide knowledge transfer to client Workfront administrators, product owners, and support teams.

- Clearly document risks, assumptions, dependencies, known limitations, and escalation points.

Required Experience and Skills :

- Demonstrable hands-on experience configuring Adobe Workfront in an enterprise environment.

- Ability to independently configure end-to-end Workfront workflows without continuous guidance from senior architects.

- Strong knowledge of projects, templates, tasks, dependencies, programs, portfolios, request queues, custom forms, statuses, approvals, notifications, reports, dashboards, users, groups, teams, job roles, and access controls.

- Hands-on experience implementing or supporting Workfront OOTB/native integrations.

- Experience translating process and functional requirements into maintainable Workfront configuration.

- Ability to troubleshoot workflow, permissions, reporting, notification, and integration issues.

- Experience supporting testing, UAT, defect remediation, deployment, and production stabilization.

- Strong written documentation and stakeholder communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications :

- Experience integrating Adobe Workfront with AEM Assets / AEM DAM.

- Experience with Frame.io and Adobe Creative Cloud integrations.

- Working knowledge of Adobe Workfront Fusion.

- Familiarity with REST APIs, webhooks, JSON, authentication, monitoring, and error handling.

- Experience with enterprise marketing operations, creative operations, or content supply-chain workflows.

- Adobe Workfront certification or other relevant Adobe credential.

Success Profile :

- Consistently delivers complete and supportable Workfront configurations from approved requirements.

- Uses native platform capabilities first and avoids unnecessary complexity.

- Independently resolves common configuration and OOTB integration issues.

- Produces clear test evidence and implementation documentation.

- Escalates architecture, Fusion, API, or custom-integration needs early and with sufficient technical context.

Role Boundaries :

- Primary : hands-on Adobe Workfront configuration and workflow implementation.

- Primary : OOTB/native integration configuration, testing, and troubleshooting.

- Secondary : Workfront Fusion and API awareness; support for straightforward automation where appropriate.

- Contributing : solution-design workshops, estimation, UAT, deployment, and production stabilization.
