As a software engineer on Autodesk’s Data Platform team, you will design and develop scalable APIs and microservices using modern languages like Go, Java, or Python, and build backend services that process millions of records across batch and real-time pipelines. You’ll architect distributed systems, create control-plane services for orchestration, and develop self-service infrastructure abstractions. Additionally, you will ensure high availability and reliability by implementing strong testing practices, CI/CD, and observability frameworks, while also automating manual processes to improve engineering productivity. This role requires 5+ years of experience in building production systems, expertise in distributed systems, and familiarity with cloud platforms like AWS, Kafka, Flink, and big data ecosystems such as Spark and Presto.
