About the Role

The Experience Foundations team at Autodesk plays a critical role in designing experiences that help customers design and make anything. This role is a founding data science position for a next-generation agentic product platform, focusing on building fundamental experiences and defining success metrics for users and the product. You will work at the intersection of predictive modeling, behavioral analytics, and AI system design, partnering with product, engineering, and platform teams.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement predictive models to analyze and anticipate user behavior, intent, and outcomes across multi-agent workflows.
  • Define and establish data instrumentation, telemetry, and observability standards for agent-based systems and user interactions.
  • Develop frameworks and prototypes for analyzing and optimizing non-deterministic user experiences driven by AI agents.
  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams to integrate predictive intelligence into agent orchestration and decision-making systems.
  • Create analytical models and reporting frameworks to generate business intelligence, forecasting, and performance insights.
  • Guide experimentation strategies, including A/B testing, causal inference, and evaluation methodologies for agent performance.
  • Provide technical leadership and recommendations on data architecture, model selection, and system scalability.
  • Translate ambiguous, early-stage product questions into structured analytical programs with clear hypotheses, methods, and business impact.

Requirements

  • 10+ years in data science or applied ML, with significant time in product analytics or user behavior modeling.
  • Demonstrated ability to conduct applied research and stay at the forefront of emerging AI technologies (LLMs, agentic systems, MCP, tool-use frameworks, RAG architectures).
  • Ability to translate new AI advances into practical product and measurement innovations.
  • Familiarity with modern AI evaluation approaches for AI-powered and agentic systems, including benchmark datasets, offline and online evaluation methodologies, LLM-as-a-Judge techniques, human-in-the-loop evaluations, and quality measurement for non-deterministic AI outputs.
  • Deep experience with predictive modeling (classification, survival analysis, sequence models, or LTV/propensity frameworks).
  • Fluency in designing instrumentation and event schemas for complex, stateful systems.
  • Demonstrated ability to define metrics and measurement frameworks for new product spaces.
  • Experience working on or adjacent to AI/ML-powered products, especially those with non-deterministic outputs.
  • Strong communicator who can translate modeling work into product and business language at the executive level.
