Position Overview
We are seeking a Principal Backend Software Developer to join our team working on Autodesk Construction Cloud Assets — a flagship product in Autodesk’s enterprise construction suite. Autodesk Construction Cloud is a connected construction management platform that empowers teams to collaborate, automate workflows, and make data-driven decisions across the entire project lifecycle. Assets, specifically, provides robust construction asset and equipment tracking, customizable workflows, and integrated field collaboration tools that help teams manage physical assets from specification through acceptance and handover.
In this role, you will be responsible for building, scaling, and maintaining frontend applications that power one of the most impactful products in the AEC industry, delivering mission‑critical experiences for construction professionals around the world. You will have the opportunity to influence architecture, improve frontend quality and performance, and mentor other engineers as we elevate the way construction teams manage assets and equipment across global projects.
Responsibilities
Architect, design, and evolve RESTful APIs and backend services using Node.js (Express) and Python (Flask) in high‑scale, global environments
Lead the development of scalable, resilient backend systems leveraging PostgreSQL, Redis, and cloud‑native services
Design and optimize asynchronous processing pipelines using AWS SQS/SNS and RabbitMQ
Define and drive technical design discussions, ensuring systems are reliable, observable, and maintainable
Establish best practices for clean, well‑tested code, including comprehensive unit and integration testing strategies
Collaborate cross‑functionally to design and deliver features supporting asset creation, submission workflows, reporting, and field data management
Guide database schema design and oversee migration strategies (e.g., Alembic)
Improve system observability through instrumentation (Open Telemetry), monitoring, and operational excellence practices
Participate in and elevate code reviews, architectural reviews, and long‑term technical planning
Support production systems, contribute to incident response, and help mature operational processes
Mentor engineers and provide architectural leadership across the team
Minimum Qualifications
7+ years of professional software engineering experience, with deep expertise in backend and distributed systems
Demonstrated experience architecting, scaling, and evolving production‑grade services with high reliability and availability requirements
Expert‑level proficiency in Python (3.x) and modern Python development practices
Strong production experience with Node.js and Type Script, including strict typing in complex service architectures
Extensive experience designing, building, and governing RESTful APIs using OpenAPI/Swagger and contract‑driven development
Deep experience with PostgreSQL, including schema design, performance optimization, and migration strategies
Proven expertise in event‑driven and message‑based architectures (e.g., AWS SQS/SNS, Redis, RabbitMQ), including reliability patterns such as idempotency, retries, backoff, and failure handling
Strong implementation experience with observability at scale, including distributed tracing (Open Telemetry), metrics instrumentation, structured logging, and production diagnostics
Experience designing and operating containerized workloads (Docker, Docker Compose) in production environments
Strong understanding of distributed systems principles, microservices architecture, scalability patterns, and data consistency trade‑offs
Experience driving engineering standards across teams, including testing strategy, CI/CD practices, feature flag governance, and secrets management (e.g., Launch Darkly, AWS Secrets Manager)
Demonstrated ability to lead architectural decisions, influence cross‑team technical direction, and mentor senior engineers
Proficiency with Git‑based collaborative development in large codebases
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with Kubernetes orchestration and modern deployment strategies (e.g., blue/green, canary, progressive delivery)
