Senior Software Development Engineer

Position Overview

Join the team building the core infrastructure that powers Autodesk's cloud services. You'll be working on CloudOS, our cutting-edge Continuous Deployment (CD) platform used extensively by our internal cloud engineering teams. As a central component of the Autodesk Cloud Developer Platform, CloudOS simplifies and standardises how teams provision and manage their front-end, back-end, and infrastructure components across multiple global regions.

Built leveraging the power and flexibility of industry-standard open-source tools, CloudOS enables rapid delivery of new platform capabilities while benefiting from the contributions of the global developer community. This modern approach allows us to move faster and replace legacy, less flexible internal deployment systems.

We are seeking a talented and passionate Platform Engineer to join the CloudOS team. In this role, you will be instrumental in designing, building, operating, and scaling the CloudOS platform. You will work closely with internal engineering teams to understand their deployment needs, enhance the platform's capabilities, ensure its reliability, and drive adoption across Autodesk. If you're excited about building robust developer platforms, automating complex workflows, and working with the public cloud using Container services like ECS and EKS at scale, this is the role for you. We’re primarily an AWS shop but have workloads on Azure and GCP.

This hybrid role involves at least one day of onsite work in the Dublin office.

Responsibilities :

• Design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance features and capabilities within the CloudOS platform.
• Manage and operate the underlying infrastructure for CloudOS, focusing on reliability, scalability, security, and cost-efficiency (leveraging technologies like Kubernetes, AWS / Azure / GCP).
• Work extensively with Jenkins / Spinnaker : configuration, management, upgrades, and potentially contributing improvements upstream or developing custom extensions.
• Develop automation for provisioning, deployment, monitoring, and operational tasks using scripting (e.g., Python, Go, Java) and Infrastructure-as-Code tools (e.g., Terraform).
• Collaborate with internal application teams (our customers) to understand their CI / CD requirements, provide support, troubleshoot issues, and evangelize best practices for using CloudOS.
• Implement and manage monitoring, logging, and alerting solutions to ensure platform health and performance.
• Contribute to technical documentation, runbooks, and knowledge sharing within the team and for platform users.
• Stay current with industry trends and advancements in CI / CD, cloud-native technologies, DevOps, and platform engineering.
• Participate in an on-call rotation to support the CloudOS platform.
