Machine Learning Developer
Autodesk is leading the transformation of the AEC industry, integrating AI technology into our products. We're enhancing our applications with cloud-native capabilities, including data at scale, edge computing, AI-based solutions, and advanced 3D modeling and graphics. This innovation is happening across our flagship productsAutoCAD, Revit, and Construction Cloudand Forma, our new Industry Cloud.
As a Machine Learning Engineer on the AEC Solutions team, you will join a team of technologists to help build foundation models and generative AI tools for the AEC industry. You will work collaboratively to create and interpret design data that can enhance design and engineering workflows. Report : You will report to the Machine Learning Manager in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) Solutions Team. Location : We support hybrid work, and you work near our Boston, Massachusetts or Toronto, Canada offices.
Responsibilities :
- Collaborate with other engineers to develop scalable data pipelines and architectures
- Work with large-scale datasets including text and geometric data, to support preprocessing, augmentation, analysis and content understanding
- Write production-quality code for model training, testing, and deployment. Design and execute model experiments, evaluate performance, and iterate based on findings
- Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize machine learning models to ensure accuracy, efficiency, and low latency
- Perform requirements analysis, working with team members of different levels and documenting solutions
- Communicate your findings through quantitative data analysis and qualitative visuals and insights
- Implement agile approaches ensuring flexibility and responsiveness to evolving project needs
