Job summary

MaintainX is building AI-powered agent infrastructure to streamline software delivery. You will own the infrastructure enabling reproducible environments, agent orchestration, MCP tool integrations, and the observability layer needed for trustworthy AI at scale.

You'll partner with product and platform teams to drive adoption, ship production-grade agent capabilities, and empower internal customers with scalable, reusable solutions.

Qualifications

• 4+ years in platform development, developer experience, or infrastructure.
• Hands-on experience with AI coding tools (Claude Code, OpenCode, Cursor, or similar).
• Strong working knowledge of containerization (Docker, Dev Containers) and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or equivalent).
• Comfortable with Node.js, TypeScript, Python, or similar.
• Knowledge about LLM agent frameworks, MCP, or tool-use patterns is a strong differentiator.

Responsibilities

• Build and operate the full agent infrastructure stack: isolated dev environments, agent orchestration, and the MCP tool registry that gives agents to internal systems.
• Design and maintain reproducible developer environments, ensuring dev, CI, and agent environments are identical by construction.
• Integrate agents with internal and external tooling so agents can be triggered from anywhere and agents have the context they need to act.
• Instrument agent runs with OpenTelemetry to produce traces of tool invocations, CI outcomes, and failure points, turning AI pipelines from black boxes into observable systems.
• Establish standards for MCP tool development and agent configuration sharing so teams can author capabilities once and reuse them across repos.
• Collaborate with product and platform teams as internal customers, running enablement, demos, and office hours to drive adoption of the agent platform.

Job description

MaintainX is a leading mobile-first work execution platform for industrial and frontline teams. More than 13,000 customers, including Duracell, McDonald's, Shell, DHL and Volvo, use MaintainX to cut unplanned downtime and run better operations, across 13.9 million managed assets and 79.5 million completed work orders.

In August 2026 MaintainX became part of Autodesk, joining Autodesk Operations Solutions , the organization unifying Autodesk's operations platform alongside Tandem, FlexSim and Fusion Operations. Autodesk's strategy is to converge design, make and operate into one continuous lifecycle: design an asset, build it, run it, then feed what you learn running it back into the next design. Autodesk had design and make. Operate is the phase that tells you what actually happened, and it is ours.

The way software gets built is changing faster than most companies can keep up with. At MaintainX, we're not waiting to see how it plays out, we're building the infrastructure that puts our developers at the leading edge of it.

We're forming a dedicated team focused on accelerating how our developers build and ship software with AI. The team will develop agentic tooling across the software development lifecycle — starting with autonomous coding agents that can take a ticket, implement the change, and open a pull request, with minimal manual intervention.

In this role, you'll own the infrastructure that makes that possible: reproducible developer environments, containerized sandboxes, agent orchestration, MCP tool integrations, and the observability layer that makes AI agents trustworthy at scale. You'll be a foundational contributor to a system that every developer at MaintainX will rely on.

What you’ll do:

Build and operate the full agent infrastructure stack: isolated dev environments, agent orchestration, and the MCP tool registry that gives agents to internal systems.

Design and maintain reproducible developer environments, ensuring dev, CI, and agent environments are identical by construction.

Integrate agents with internal and external tooling so agents can be triggered from anywhere and agents have the context they need to act.

Instrument agent runs with OpenTelemetry to produce traces of tool invocations, CI outcomes, and failure points, turning AI pipelines from black boxes into observable systems.

Establish standards for MCP tool development and agent configuration sharing so teams can author capabilities once and reuse them across repos.

Collaborate with product and platform teams as internal customers, running enablement, demos, and office hours to drive adoption of the agent platform.

About you:

4+ years of experience in platform development, developer experience, or infrastructure — you've felt the friction of inconsistent environments and flaky CI, and you know how to fix it.

Hands-on experience with AI coding tools (Claude Code, OpenCode, Cursor, or similar) and a genuine interest in making agentic workflows your full-time focus.

Strong working knowledge of containerization (Docker, Dev Containers) and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or equivalent).

Comfortable with Node.js, TypeScript, Python, or similar.

Knowledge about LLM agent frameworks, MCP, or tool-use patterns is a strong differentiator.

A product mindset: you build platforms with and for internal customers, not just for yourself.

Bonus: you've already shipped an agent integration to production.

Our mission is to keep the physical world running. Factories, fleets, hospitals and campuses stay up because the people who maintain them have tools worth using. That is what we build.

Compensation and benefits. Base pay is one part of the package. Depending on the role, compensation may also include commission, an annual bonus and equity. Benefits differ by country. For roles in the United States, Autodesk’s benefits are described at benefits.autodesk.com . For roles in Canada and other countries, the plan differs on health coverage, retirement and leave, and your recruiter will walk you through it.

Belonging. We take pride in a culture where everyone can thrive. More at autodesk.com/company/global-belonging . More on where this is going: Autodesk CEO Andrew Anagnost on building the future of connected operations, and AOS SVP Stephen Hooper on welcoming MaintainX to Autodesk.

Competitive pay, meaningful equity, performance bonuses, and rewards for outsized impact.

Flexibility that fuels speed

Hybrid work, unlimited time off, and the autonomy to move fast and own your results.

Growth at startup velocity

L&D budget, real ownership, stretch opportunities, and recognition for bold thinking and innovation.

Health & wellness that keeps you at your best

Comprehensive benefits, wellness programs, parental support, and access to the tools you need to perform.

A culture built for builders

Catered lunches, off-sites, hackathons, energetic teams, and a community that celebrates big wins and resilience.
