Position Overview

The AEC industry is perhaps the most collaborative industry in the world - with each journey to design->plan->build->operate involving sometimes hundreds of different companies from Owners to Architects to General Contractors to all the different trades. One place where Autodesk excels is connecting these entities in the AEC ecosystem together in a collaboration platform, and at the heart of that is our Forma Administration organization.

In our Forma Administration organization, we develop various services for managing:
- Users & Business Relationships
- Collaboration Spaces
- Workflows & Data
 

Responsibilities

  • Be the voice of the customer, especially the workspace administrator persona, by bringing deep user and market insights to our engineering and leadership teams

  • Own the full product lifecycle: from early discovery and concept testing to launch, go-to-market, enablement, and adoption

  • Deliver a consistent, intuitive workspace setup experience across all Autodesk products

  • Lead the launch of public APIs (create, read, update, delete) to empower integration and extensibility

  • Support regionalization by evolving workspace capabilities to meet diverse global compliance and user needs

  • Build tools that enable Admins to easily configure settings, define custom properties, and manage business units

  • API-first development and platform product management (building for developers - not just UI)

  • Communicating succinctly and accurately

  • Expressing ideas through imagery & prototypes (eg Lovable, Figma Make, etc)

  • Focusing on understanding the customer problem, not the solution


Minimum Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience in B2B SaaS product management (e.g. Salesforce, Shopify, Adobe, OpenText)

  • Product leadership experience focused on admin or purchaser personas, or hands-on experience as a software administrator (e.g., Salesforce Admin)

  • Strong communication and storytelling skills are required, whether you're creating a product wiki, running a customer session, or presenting to leadership

  • Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, approachable ideas

  • You thrive in fast-paced, collaborative environments and are energized by learning and growth

  • Clear understanding of how to define and track success metrics and KPIs

  • A passion for precision: You're intentional with language and messaging in both customer and R&D conversations
