Manav Padhariya - Solution Architect

Solution Architect specializing in Adobe Experience Cloud, composable commerce, and agentic AI engineering. President of the Adobe Commerce Champions Forum.

About

A certified Content & Commerce technology expert and Solution Architect — specialising in content strategy and user-experience optimisation for global enterprise brands, with deep proficiency across the Adobe Experience Cloud and a practice increasingly shaped by agentic, AI-assisted engineering.

The Approach

Translating complex business problems into composable, API-first, and cloud-native implementations — using modern stacks like Next.js, TypeScript, Python, and Java to deliver seamless omnichannel commerce. By leveraging tools like Jira, Figma, and robust CI/CD workflows, I establish the delivery standards and governance models that ensure predictable, high-quality execution across digital commerce platforms. A core focus of my practice is advancing the software development life cycle through agentic engineering and AI-assisted development — integrating tools like Claude, Cursor, and v0 to build AI-enabled workflows, agents, and automated processes that meaningfully boost developer productivity and operational efficiency.

How I Work

  • Composable by default: API-first, cloud-native architecture that scales cleanly.
  • Governance that frees teams: Delivery standards, CI/CD workflows, and clear API contracts.
  • AI-native engineering: Agentic workflows and AI-assisted development woven into the SDLC.
  • Outcomes over output: Post-release KPI analysis and A/B testing that keep the work anchored to measurable business value.
