Hello, I reviewed your Lead Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Developer project and it immediately stood out because enterprise AEM implementations require strong expertise in scalable architecture, component development, and content management workflows. Problem: Many AEM projects become difficult to maintain due to customizations that don't follow best practices, resulting in performance issues, complex deployments, and inconsistent authoring experiences. Solution: I can contribute as a Lead AEM Developer by designing scalable solutions, developing reusable components and templates, integrating third-party APIs, optimizing workflows, and ensuring high code quality. My experience includes Adobe Experience Manager, Java, OSGi, Sling Models, HTL (Sightly), JCR, REST APIs, cloud deployments, and enterprise CMS development with a focus on performance, maintainability, and security. Result: You will have a reliable technical lead capable of delivering scalable AEM solutions, improving content authoring workflows, accelerating development, and ensuring long-term platform stability. A few questions: • Which AEM version are you currently using (AEM 6.5 or AEM as a Cloud Service)? • Is the role focused on new feature development, migration, performance optimization, or ongoing maintenance? • Are integrations with Adobe Experience Cloud, Commerce, Analytics, or third-party systems required? • Will this be a long-term engagement with team leadership responsibilities?. Thanks

Hey, I'm Abraham. How is the AEM setup split today, especially around Dispatcher, GraphQL, and the React pieces? I’m a partner and tech lead at BW Digital, working with a team on enterprise delivery, and I’ve spent years on Java, PHP, and React-heavy systems where reviews, task breakdowns, and deployment impact matter. I can help with Sling Models, OSGi services, workflows, content fragments, plus the caching and performance calls that usually decide whether an AEM rollout feels solid or painful. Send over the current architecture and I’ll point out the main risks.
