The Opportunity

‍

We're seeking a curious and versatile intern to join our People Data Science team within People Analytics. This role offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of AI development and user experience research, helping us build and refine AI-powered tools (bots and agents) that transform how our organization works with people data.

‍

You'll split your time between technical development and user research, giving you hands-on experience in both building AI solutions and understanding how real users interact with them. This is an ideal role for someone who wants to develop technical skills while maintaining a strong focus on human-centered design.

‍

All 2026 Adobe interns will be co-located hybrid. This means that interns will work between their assigned office and home. Interns will be based in the office where their manager and/or team are located, where they will get the most support to ensure collaboration and the best employee experience. Managers and their organization will determine the frequency they need to go into the office to meet priorities.
