Job description

  • Design the Journey: Create and improve the content experience for the Autodesk delivery platform. You will help define and apply our content strategy, information architecture, and voice and tone to create a seamless and intuitive path for specific user personas.

  • Create High-Impact Developer Content: Design, write, and scale our developer education materials. This includes producing crystal-clear reference documentation, insightful conceptual guides, practical video tutorials, and code samples that accelerate learning and user success.

  • Advocate for the Developer: Act as a strong voice for our developer community. You will help establish feedback loops, engage with users, and translate their insights into actionable recommendations that influence product priorities and improve the developer experience.

  • Collaborate to Enhance DevEx: Partner closely with Product Managers, Engineers, and other Designers to embed Developer Experience (DevEx) principles into our product development process and ensure content is a forethought, not an afterthought.

  • Measure and Optimize for Success: Define and track key metrics (like developer satisfaction, content effectiveness, and adoption rates) to measure the impact of your work and drive continuous, data-informed improvements.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of demonstrated experience in a content-focused role for a technical audience, such as Content Design, UX Writing, Technical Writing, or Developer Advocacy for a platform company.

  • A strong portfolio that showcases not just finished content (like API docs, tutorials, or guides), but also your process, use of user research, and the measurable impact your work had on user success.

  • Deep empathy for developers and a solid understanding of their ecosystem, including REST APIs, SDKs, and common developer tools (e.g., Git, OpenAPI, Postman).

  • A systems-thinker with proven expertise in information architecture, content strategy, and UX principles as they apply to complex technical domains.

  • An exceptional writer and communicator, with a talent for distilling complex technical concepts into clear, concise, and engaging content.

  • Data-literate with experience using metrics to measure content impact and improve user experience.

  • Proven experience building trustworthy, adaptive AI experiences grounded in human insight and data fluency. Preferred Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in English, computer science, human-computer interaction, or a related field

  • Hands-on experience designing and shipping API and GraphQL experiences
  • Familiarity with Autodesk products including BIM 360, Autodesk Docs, Revit, AutoCAD, etc.

  • Experience working with Confluence, and JIRA a plus
