About Devin Adair
I\'m a software engineer who thrives at the intersection of deep technical challenge and real-world impact. Over the past 7+ years, I’ve helped bring ideas to life at both Fortune 500s and early-stage startups — from launching generative AI features in Adobe’s flagship creative tools, to building HIPAA-compliant healthcare platforms that help clinics run smarter and patients pay with less stress. What drives me isn’t just writing clean code or building scalable systems (though I care deeply about both). It’s solving meaningful problems, owning the full arc of an idea — from architecture to delivery — and creating tools that are intuitive, secure, and empowering. At Adobe, I led development on AI-powered features used by millions, helping scale Firefly’s backend and bring new creative possibilities to life. At Apero Health, I helped build the platform from the ground up — integrating with EHR systems, applying data science to billing, and delivering better transparency for patients. And at AWS, I contributed to the launch of Amplify, making modern cloud infrastructure accessible to a new generation of developers. Above all, I care about building with empathy — for users, teammates, and the systems we depend on.
Experience
Software Development Engineer

When I joined Adobe, the goal was bold: bring generative AI into Photoshop and make creativity faster, more intuitive, and more accessible. I helped lead the development of text-to-image and Generative Fill features powered by Adobe Firefly — tools now used by millions to turn ideas into visuals in seconds.My work focused on building and scaling the AI backend to support this shift — training and deploying models across Adobe products, handling massive demand spikes, and enabling rapid iteration during a fast-moving beta phase. I also helped integrate content authenticity tagging to ensure transparency around AI-generated assets. Helped launch Firefly-powered features across Adobe Photoshop and Express, generating billions of images Architected backend systems that scaled model training capacity by 20× in under 9 months Drove ethical AI efforts by implementing content provenance tagging for responsible model use
