About the Role

The Visualization Services team builds cloud infrastructure for viewing and interacting with large, complex 3D models smoothly on any device across Autodesk products. We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to own and deliver complex modules within our visualization services, working with system architects and client-rendering teams to build richer viewing capabilities, improve performance and resiliency at scale, and solve demanding distributed systems and algorithmic problems.

Responsibilities

Independently design, build, and maintain complex modules of our streaming services, using sound judgment on problems with diverse scope and significant unknowns.
Own components or initiatives end to end: drive execution, apply solid engineering practices, meet quality and operational standards, and collaborate with key stakeholders.
Operate what you build: deploy and run services on AWS across multiple regions, primarily using ECS/EC2, with supporting services such as S3, DynamoDB, SQS, ElastiCache/Redis, Lambda, and CloudFront.
Improve performance and resiliency through caching and eviction strategies, retry and dead-letter recovery, memory-mapped or pager-based data access, and scaling policies, measuring impact with concrete data.
Troubleshoot and root-cause production issues with limited supervision; participate in incident response and drive follow-up improvements.
Contribute to design and architecture discussions, bring technology ideas to the team, and provide input into technical planning, roadmap discussions, and team goals.
Act as a multiplier within the team: review code, share knowledge, mentor more junior engineers, and help raise the bar on engineering practices.
Identify opportunities to automate, simplify, and remove inefficiency, including through thoughtful use of AI-assisted development tools and agents.
Occasionally help facilitate team rituals, planning, or delivery coordination.

Requirements

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
5+ years of hands-on software development experience building and operating production services.
Strong production experience with JavaScript/TypeScript and Node.js, or strong backend engineering experience in another language with demonstrated ability to ramp quickly on a Node.js service stack.
Hands-on experience with AWS infrastructure, especially ECS and EC2, and DevOps fundamentals such as CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code, and multi-environment deployment.
Strong algorithms and mathematics skills, with the ability to reason about complexity, data structures, and performance trade-offs.
Solid grasp of object-oriented and/or functional design, concurrency, troubleshooting, and independent problem-solving.
Experience working with high-traffic distributed systems, including REST or WebSocket APIs, data interchange formats such as JSON or Protobuf, and basic observability practices such as logging, metrics, and tracing.
Familiarity with Agile development.
Openness to using AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering productivity and quality.
