Autodesk Education Experiences (AEX) helps students, educators, and institutions access Autodesk tools, learning programs, and certifications. We are seeking a Software Development Engineer to build and deliver education-focused product experiences that support teaching and learning across Autodesk platforms.

Our team operates like a startup within Autodesk-small, fast-moving, and focused on delivering high-quality products. You'll work across the product stack, including backend services, integrations, automation, experimentation, and user-facing features. This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy taking ownership of customer-facing products from concept to launch and collaborating across disciplines to deliver meaningful user experiences.

Start strong: you will write production-quality code, maintain and connect systems, and collaborate with cross-functional teammates to deliver education features for Autodesk products. You will help take ideas from early exploration through implementation, launch, and iteration. Typical responsibilities include:

• Implement backend services APIs, integrations, and product infrastructure that support education product features and platform experiences
• Move quickly from prototype to production, balancing speed, quality, maintainability, and user impact
• Integrate and productize ML/AI solutions in close collaboration with digital experience and platform engineering teams
• Build and maintain automation, plugins or SDKs for CAD platforms (e.g., Fusion, Revit, 3DS Max, Maya), including tooling to support reproducible experiments and product delivery
• Work across product and engineering boundaries, including lightweight frontend integration, data pipelines, service orchestration, experimentation tooling, or internal product workflows when needed
• Work with CI/CD systems (Jenkins, Git Hub Actions) and containerized deployments (Docker), and contribute to observability and reliability of services
• Write robust, well-tested code and participate actively in code reviews and design discussions; follow security and data-handling best practices
• Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, researchers, frontend engineers, ML engineers, and platform teams to turn ambiguous problems into shipped features
• Document designs, APIs, runbooks and hand-off materials to product teams, and help onboard other engineers to the codebase
• Contribute to team culture by sharing knowledge, and promoting reproducible engineering practices

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Software Engineering or equivalent practical experience
• 3+ years of professional software engineering experience (or equivalent)
• Strong experience with Full-Stack development workflows/processes and front-end familiarity (JavaScript, React/Next.js)
• Able to utilise AI coding tools for increased velocity
• Experience with containerization (Docker) and version control (Git)
• Proven ability to integrate with CI/CD pipelines and maintain testable, maintainable code
• Ability to work cross-functionally with product managers, designers, researchers, ML engineers, platform engineers, or other technical teams to ship
• features
• Strong debugging, problem-solving skills and attention to detail
• Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate in a distributed team

• Familiarity with Python and/or C++; experience writing production-quality code and libraries
• Experience working on CAD or 3D geometry systems (meshes, B-Reps, geometry kernels) or building plugins/automation for CAD platforms (e.g.,. Fusion, Revit, AutoCAD, Maya)
