Position Overview
At Autodesk AEC, we help teams meet the world’s rapidly expanding building and infrastructure needs while making design and construction more predictable, safe, and sustainable. The Construction Field Delivery team is transforming how projects are delivered through a connected productivity platform that is intuitive, scalable, AI-driven, and seamlessly accessible across mobile, and web.
We’re seeking a Principal UX Designer to join our Field Delivery team to own key workflows across mobile, web, and emerging agentic interfaces used in the construction field. This is a highly strategic individual contributor role focused on defining the long-term vision, experience architecture, and design quality for our most critical field workflows. You will shape how construction teams capture, understand, and act on projects in dynamic, real-world environments.
As a principal-level designer, you will operate with high autonomy, partnering closely with product, engineering, and research leadership to align on strategy, define durable experience frameworks, and elevate the craft and systems thinking of the broader team. Curiosity and excitement about exploring new interaction models, including agentic experiences, are essential, as are design details and willingness to be "in the weeds."
**Resume and portfolio with password/access are required when applying**

8+ years of professional UX or product design experience, with demonstrated impact leading complex, workflow-heavy product areas
Strong portfolio showcasing ownership of end-to-end experiences for mobile and web products, including complex operational or data-driven workflows
Proven ability to define experience strategy and influence product direction beyond feature-level design
