Software Architect

Position Overview

Our team within Autodesk Construction is looking for a Software Architect to help us build collaborative tools for Payment Solutions. We facilitate payments between builders and subcontractors, making the construction process much more efficient and allowing owners and general contractors to easily monitor progress.

As a software architect on the team, you’ll be responsible for owning, building, and maintaining the overall architecture that provides best-in-class Progress Payment workflows. We are currently in the process of modernizing our codebase and are aggressively looking to remove legacy code with new patterns, techniques, and tools. This opens up huge opportunities to re-architect or re-engineer our already-successful platform.

Our current stacks are fairly standard for modern development : React / Angular on the front-end, Javascript / Typescript / .NET on the back end. As our applications evolve, we are finding that we are becoming more of a platform, and we are needing to simplify our infrastructure and remove as much legacy as possible as we plan for the future.
