[4eyes] Adobe DIG

[Matthew Turk]

I forget if this has already made the rounds or not (in addition to the
Adobe intern announcements), but in any case here's an announcement for the
new Adobe Disruptive Innovation Group (DIG). Joe Marks (former VP of Disney
Research) will be at UCSB in a couple weeks and will be happy to talk with
anyone interested.

Adobe is pleased to announce the opening of its Disruptive Innovation Group
(DIG) in San Francisco in 2013. The group will be part start-up, part
corporate research lab: it will incubate adventurous new products, services,
and business models for digital media & marketing in the spirit of a small
company, while also having the stability and resources of a major
corporation. 

 

We are seeking world-class individuals at all levels of seniority from
student interns to principal investigators with the following backgrounds:

 




.         Anthropology

.         Behavioral Economics

.         Business Development

.         Computer Graphics

.         Education

.         Electrical Engineering

.         Experience Design

.         Human-Computer Interaction

.         Marketing

.         Psychology

.         Sociology

.         Software Engineering

.         User Research

 




 

Candidates should have an outstanding record of achievement for their level
of experience. DIG will pursue an empirical approach to the development of
new business opportunities, so candidates should be comfortable with lean
product development, experimental methodologies, and entrepreneurial
thinking. DIG's innovators will have the opportunity to remain in the lab
long-term, where they may contribute to a sequence of new products;
alternately, they will have the option to stay with a new business as it
transitions out of DIG.

 

To apply for this position please send a CV and personal statement to
DIG-jobs at adobe.com.

 

The Disruptive Innovation Group will be part of the Creative Technologies
Lab, an open and collaborative environment with a world-class set of
researchers in digital imaging, computer vision and graphics, audio
processing, and human-computer interaction. The DIG leadership team includes
David Salesin (Director) and Joe Marks (Adviser). In addition to Adobe's
strengths in media authoring, recent growth in areas like web analytics
(e.g., SiteCatalyst, powered by Omniture), cloud computing (e.g., Creative
Cloud), and consumer photo sharing (e.g., Photoshop.com and Revel) provides
new opportunities for research and entrepreneurship.

 

Adobe is an equal-opportunity employer. We welcome and encourage diversity
in the workplace.
