We had a guy like this on our team last year. He never said he was autistic, but in my opinion he was pretty far over on the spectrum. He was a very smart guy and a prolific developer, but absolutely terrible to work with. He would argue endlessly with everyone about everything. Often he was right, but unfortunately even when he was wrong he almost never backed down.
Ultimately he was unable/unwilling to change his ways. Several team members got themselves transferred to other teams just to avoid working with this guy before he ultimately ended up leaving our company to return to his old job. I suspect he had himself a nice window-sitter R&D position where he could work without interacting with anyone.
I wish him the best, but I absolutely would never work with him again.
Oh, I guess I have no advice for you.
