technical vision
  • Perform hands-on development of data preprocessing, feature extraction, and transformation modules optimized for downstream ML model performance
  • Investigate and apply advanced techniques including self-supervised learning, active learning, and weak supervision to maximize the value of unlabeled data
  • Drive strategic technical planning across the team—identifying bottlenecks, proposing long-term architectural improvements, and aligning data/ML infrastructure with product goals
  • Lead the design and development of intelligent data processing and characterization systems that transform unstructured inputs (e.g., text, images, geometry) into structured, ML-ready formats
  • Stay current with advances in generative AI, foundation models, and data-centric AI—translating research into practical, scalable solutions
  • Mentor and support a team of ML engineers, fostering a culture of engineering excellence, curiosity, and technical ownership
  • Define and establish best practices for model experimentation, evaluation, and deployment in high-throughput environments
  • Set the strategic technical vision for Autodesk’s generative AI capabilities in the AEC domain, influencing both short-term priorities and long-term investments
  • Architect and implement scalable, production-grade data and ML pipelines that support training and fine-tuning of models
  • Collaborate closely with data engineers, applied scientists, and product teams to integrate large-scale data and related attributes into model development workflows
  • Own and evolve the model/data feedback loop by monitoring model quality, diagnosing failure modes, and guiding iterative improvements
