• Integrate AEM with Adobe Sensei and other AI/ML services for intelligent content targeting and automation.
• Design and govern DevOps processes, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure automation for scalable deployments.
• Conduct architecture reviews, performance audits, and oversee governance across AEM and front-end platforms.
