Principal Backend Software Developer

Position Overview

Autodesk is building a shared AI-assisted commerce platform that enables AI copilots and agents to safely discover, recommend, and transact Autodesk offerings. As a Principal Developer you will design and build the core APIs and orchestration layer (MCP) that connects AI systems to Autodesk’s commerce infrastructure—pricing, subscriptions, entitlements, and checkout—with enterprise-grade reliability, security, and governance. This role sits at the intersection of platform engineering, distributed systems, and applied AI enablement.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement the runtime and APIs that allow copilots/agents to invoke commerce capabilities safely and consistently (e.g., product discovery → pricing → eligibility/entitlements → checkout).
• Create standardized patterns for tool invocation (idempotency, retries, rate limits, validation), error contracts, and deterministic behaviors suitable for LLM/agent workflows.
