Job Requisition ID #
Position Overview
Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) is transforming how things get built. We believe (deeply!) that our customers and the construction industry deserve a truly great platform to manage the full lifecycle of their projects — and achieve greater success than they thought possible.
A key part of our mission is delivering a world-class developer experience, since many of our customers and partners integrate with our APIs. Our DevX team is focused on making this process incredibly intuitive and seamless. We’re building a developer portal — one that’s best-in-class, award-winning, and supports extremely low time-to-hello-world (TTHW) and submit-to-publish (STP) rates.
Responsibilities
Write and maintain clear, structured API documentation, tutorials, and integration guides that help developers rapidly understand and use our APIs
Collaborate with product managers and engineers to understand features, use cases, and workflows — and translate them into effective documentation
Review API request/response payloads, test endpoints in Postman or Swagger, and ensure examples and workflows are accurate and complete
Participate in team documentation reviews, ensuring consistency, tone, and structural cohesion across the documentation ecosystem
Track and document API changes across versions and highlight breaking changes or key differences to minimize developer confusion
Minimum Qualifications
5–7+ years of experience in technical writing for SaaS products, including at least 2 years of direct API documentation experience
Strong writing and editing skills with the ability to explain complex systems in simple, accurate, developer-friendly language
Hands-on experience using tools like Postman, Swagger/OpenAPI, or equivalent API clients
Ability to read and understand JSON, REST APIs, and basic code samples (e.g., JavaScript, Python)
Self-driven and detail-oriented, with the confidence to test and explore APIs independently
Open to receiving and giving feedback and committed to continuous improvement
Preferred Qualifications
Experience working on a globally distributed team across multiple time zones
Familiarity with GitHub, static site generators (e.g., Docusaurus), and Markdown
Exposure to enterprise developer documentation strategies and internal knowledge base tools
A strong writing portfolio with at least one sample of API or developer documentation (public links or anonymized PDFs are fine)
