Summary
Juan Ayala is a Principal Engineer with two decades of experience and a deep specialization in Adobe Experience Manager, currently leading architectural strategy and cloud integrations at Comerica Bank. He combines hands-on engineering—designing OSGi services, CI/CD pipelines, and AEM cloud migrations—with identity and API-led integrations across Azure B2C, APIM, and managed identities to deliver secure, scalable digital experiences. Juan has repeatedly guided large migrations (Sitecore→AEM, AEM 6.5→AEMaaCS), avoided costly refactors through forward-compatible design, and improved authoring and delivery performance for global multi-site deployments. A certified Azure Administrator and Adobe AEM Sites Architect Master, he also mentors teams, authors technical content (theaemmaven.com), and has a track record of turning complex business requirements into pragmatic, production-ready architectures.
