Intern, Content Designer

San Francisco, CA

Job Requisition ID #

24WD82777

Position Overview

At Autodesk, we're not just shaping tools-we're shaping the future of how ideas come to life. Our platform content designers create the clarity that's fundamental to every product launch. We understand how words and language define the entire customer experience-from command-line to in-product and beyond.

In this role, you'll craft the content experience across the Autodesk platform products through product messaging, developer documentation, unified taxonomy, and cohesive storytelling to weave together the experiences across the platform. You'll collaborate with other experience and content designers, architects, product managers, engineers, and teams who are passionate about bringing exceptional experiences to the fields of architecture, construction, manufacturing, and film and visual effects. If you enjoy dabbling in code as much as noodling on all the words, you'll fit right in.
