About this role
Job Requisition ID # 26WD101322 Senior Site Reliability Engineer, Reliability Automation Position Overview Autodesk is the global leader in design and make technology, including industry-leading 3D design, engineering, and entertainment software and services, that offer customers better outcomes through automation and insights for their design and make processes. If you’ve ever driven a high-performance car, admired a towering skyscraper, used a smartphone, or watched a great film, chances are you’ve experienced what millions of Autodesk customers are doing with our software. Want to help make a better world? As a Senior Site Reliability Engineer at Autodesk, you can help us build and operate reliable, secure, and scalable cloud services for Autodesk products and customers. As part of an SRE team focused on Reliability Automation, you will have a unique opportunity to help shape how Autodesk detects, responds to, and engineers away production issues at scale. This is a project-oriented, engineering-heavy role where you will build the automation, tooling, and platform capabilities that other engineering teams rely on to run their services reliably. You will combine software engineering and production operations to automate how Autodesk services are operated, monitored, recovered, and validated. You will partner closely with product engineering, platform, infrastructure, and operations teams to turn manual operational work into durable, reusable automation. The ideal candidate is a strong software engineer who is drawn to operational problems. You should be comfortable designing and shipping production-grade software, and equally comfortable reasoning about how distributed systems fail. Success in this role requires strong technical judgment, the ability to drive projects end to end, and a passion for replacing manual operational work with durable engineering.
Responsibilities
Lead reliability automation projects end to end, from problem definition and design through delivery, adoption, and measurable impact on availability, performance, and operational efficiency. Design, develop, and maintain shared automation, tooling, and platform services that improve the reliability, scalability, and operability of production systems across Autodesk. Partner with engineering teams to understand their operational pain, and drive adoption of the automation and reliability capabilities your team builds. Instrument and automate reliability signals such as SLOs/SLIs, error budgets, and alerting-as-code, so teams get reliability measurement by default rather than by manual effort. Build automation that improves deployment safety, operational efficiency, and service recovery, including self-healing and auto-remediation capabilities. Automate incident response workflows, diagnostics, and runbook execution to reduce time to detect, time to mitigate, and manual intervention. Extend monitoring, alerting, logging, and tracing capabilities, and automate their coverage and consistency across services. Own the reliability, availability, and operability of the automation and platform services your team runs, including on-call response when they fail. Turn incident and post-incident findings from across the organization into automation, tooling, and durable engineering fixes. Design and scale automated resilience testing, chaos engineering, Gameday, and disaster recovery tooling to validate system behavior and recovery capabilities. Continuously identify and eliminate operational toil through software engineering, automation, and process improvement. Ensure the automation and services your team builds meet Autodesk security, privacy, and operational risk requirements. Participate in a 24x7 on-call rotation for the automation, tooling, and platform services owned by the team. Function effectively in a fast-paced environment while helping mature reliability automation practices across engineering.
