Software Architect, AI/ML

Job description

Position Overview

If you love building real systems that real customers use—and you get genuinely excited about LLMs, RAG, MCP, and agentic architectures—this role is for you.

The Applied AI team in Autodesk's Data and Process Management (DPM) organization ships Cloud-Native AI agents that make our Product Data Management (PDM) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) workflows smarter and easier. This is a hands-on architecture role where you'll design core platform patterns and also write code that lands in production. We're looking for a modern builder: Ambitious, Curious, and Practical—someone who has already shipped scalable, Cloud-Native AI Applications to production and wants to level up further. You might have expertise in GenAI Applications, or you might have shipped traditional Machine Learning applications (recommendations, forecasting, anomaly detection) at scale and are ready to go all-in on agentic architectures. Either way, you build for reliability, quality, and impact.

Responsibilities

• Architect and build scalable, secure cloud-native services and Agentic AI workflows that run in production

• Own the GenAI/ML architecture for production agentic systems: tool-use, orchestration, state/memory, routing, and multi-step workflows

• Define model strategy across prompting, retrieval (RAG), and fine-tuning—making tradeoffs using measurable quality, latency, safety, and cost
