Position Overview

Autodesk’s Data Platform is building the next generation of data infrastructure, AI native, scalable, and developer-friendly systems that power analytics, AI, real-time insights, and customer-facing experiences across Autodesk.

To power this vision, we are hiring software engineers who build platforms. You are someone who learns quickly, moves decisively, and takes ownership of complex systems. You enjoy solving hard distributed systems problems, writing production-grade code, automating everything, and turning ambiguity into scalable architecture.

You will design and build APIs, streaming systems, control planes, automation frameworks, and developer-facing platform capabilities that enable thousands of engineers and data practitioners across Autodesk.

This is a high-impact engineering role with real architectural ownership.

Responsibilities

Build the Platform

Design and develop scalable APIs and microservices (REST, GraphQL, event-driven)

Build backend services using modern languages such as Go, Java, or Python

Develop full-stack capabilities when needed (React, micro-frontends) to enable platform usability

Architect and implement distributed systems that process millions of records across batch and real-time pipelines

Build and evolve streaming and ingestion systems using Kafka and Flink

Develop control-plane services for orchestration, workflow management, and metadata-driven automation

Design self-service infrastructure abstractions for storage, compute, and workflow provisioning

Engineer for Scale & Reliability

Build highly available, fault-tolerant distributed systems

Define SLAs/SLIs and drive observability across platform services

Implement strong testing, CI/CD, and modern, cloud-native practices

Drive performance optimization and system efficiency

Participate in on-call rotations and take operational ownership seriously

Automate Everything

Identify manual processes and replace them with resilient automation

Build intelligent workflow orchestration and scheduling systems

Improve deployment pipelines and reduce operational overhead

Leverage AI/LLMs and modern tooling to accelerate engineering productivity

Collaborate & Lead Technically

Partner with product managers, architects, data engineers, and ML teams to translate business needs into scalable systems

Contribute to architectural direction and technical strategy

Mentor engineers and raise the engineering bar through code reviews and design discussions

Promote engineering best practices, documentation discipline, and long-term maintainability

Minimum Qualifications

5+ years of professional software engineering experience building production systems

Strong programming skills in Go, Java, or Python

Proven experience designing and building distributed systems or microservices architectures

Experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred)

Experience building and consuming APIs (REST, GraphQL, event-driven)

Strong understanding of CI/CD, containerization, and cloud native infrastructure

Demonstrated ability to learn new technologies quickly and apply them effectively

Ownership mindset: you build it, you run it, you improve it

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with streaming technologies (Kafka, Flink)

Experience with big data ecosystems (Spark, Trino/Presto, Hive, EMR)

Experience building data platforms, storage systems, or orchestration engines (Airflow, Temporal)

Familiarity with data modeling, schema design, and large-scale data processing

Experience implementing observability and monitoring frameworks

Background in building developer platforms or internal tooling
