We are on a multi-year mission to revolutionize the Design to Manufacture industry with Autodesk Fusion and are excited to offer an impactful role in our Product Development and Manufacturing Solutions division. The team you will join is spearheading the development of the Fusion engine of the Autodesk Automation API, the foundation for cloud-based Design and Manufacturing workflows.

In this role, you will be instrumental in developing and maintaining reliable, scalable, and secure cloud-based API capabilities that connect products across Autodesk's portfolio in the design and manufacturing domains. The service delivers Fusion's Design and Manufacturing functionality through a REST API released on Autodesk Platform Services (APS), and is used by a global network of developers and by other Autodesk products.

You will report to a Senior Software Engineering Manager. The team works in a primarily remote-based setup within Germany and the UK, with semi-regular meetups in our Parsberg, Munich, or Birmingham offices.

Be responsible for web services and desktop code of significant size and complexity which may require a high degree of ingenuity or creativity.

Define and implement the Fusion Automation API, with a focus on stability, security, and scalability.

Configure automated deployments and execute service releases.

Extend and adapt the codebase of the Fusion compute engine for the Automation API, improving performance and reliability.

Perform code reviews, mentor other developers, and actively contribute to decision-making on architecture.

Partner with QA to improve service quality and stability via observability, monitoring, continuous integration, test-planning and -automation.

Collaborate with software architects and developers worldwide, and with extended teams of UX, Research, Product Management, QA, and Platform Engineering.

Minimum Qualifications:

Professional software engineering experience with a track record across both web services and large desktop applications.

Strong backend web development fundamentals: designing REST APIs, authentication and authorization, automated testing, and operational experience on AWS.

Strong proficiency in modern C++ and one other language from C#, TypeScript, or Python.

A natural feeling of what is "good code" and "good architecture"

Good written and verbal English communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications:

Deep familiarity with Linux tools, and experience with large cross-platform (Windows, macOS, Linux).

Experience designing secure sandboxing or multi-tenant isolation for untrusted code execution.

Working knowledge of infrastructure-as-code tools and container technology.

Nice-to-have: exposure to CAD/CAM software and APS.
