Position Overview Autodesk's Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) Platform Data organization is seeking an experienced Software Architect to join its centralized Architecture  this role, you will be responsible for designing and building the systems and services that power cross-cutting data capabilities across both engineering teams in our organization:
Information Lifecycle and Data Authoring, and their integration with Autodesk's existing and future AEC products.

This opportunity is for you if you have a passion for the design of complex system architectures and are excited by the idea of transforming how AEC professionals use data to capture knowledge, inform decisions, and deliver projects.

As a Software Architect in the centralized Architecture team, you will be at the forefront of designing the next generation of capabilities for the Autodesk Forma Industry Cloud. You'll collaborate with software architects in the centralized Architecture team as well as with software architects from the world's foremost applications and services for designing and constructing buildings and infrastructure, including Revit, Civil 3D, AutoCAD, the Autodesk Construction Cloud, and Autodesk Forma.

You'll define the software architecture that reimagines the continuous flow of AEC Data (e.g. 3D models, 2D drawings, issue tracking, cost, sensor streams, etc.) and information throughout the entire lifecycle of a built asset, from design and construction through operation and maintenance.

This is an individual contributor role reporting to the Distinguished Architect, AEC Platform Data, central Architecture team.# Responsibilities
