Senior Product Manager — Machine Simulation, Post Processing & Manufacturing Libraries

Autodesk Autodesk · Enterprise · Toronto, ON +2

This role is for a Senior Product Manager at Autodesk, focusing on the Fusion Machine Digital Twin solution. The core responsibilities include owning the product strategy and roadmap for CAM machine simulation, post processing, manufacturing content libraries, and the vendor ecosystem. The role involves driving CAM simulation and verification, shaping post processing with AI-assisted setup, leading manufacturing libraries, and partnering with vendors. While the role is primarily product-focused within the industrial domain, it emphasizes a future growth into an AI-first Product Manager, utilizing AI assistants and the Autodesk Assistant for Manufacturing.

What you'd actually do

  1. Own and shape the product strategy and roadmap for the Fusion Machine Digital Twin solution — CAM machine simulation, post processing, manufacturing libraries, and the vendor ecosystem
  2. Drive CAM machine simulation and verification — multi-axis and turn-mill kinematics, connection moves, rendering with real machine geometry, fixture and tool-block modelling, verification beyond visual
  3. Shape post processing — controller coverage, AI-assisted post setup and modification, post-author and customer experience
  4. Lead manufacturing libraries and assets — strategy, content quality, and lifecycle of tool, holder, post, machine, fixture, and material libraries; lead the team that builds and curates them
  5. Partner with the Autodesk partnership team to create and expand relationships with machine, fixture, and tool vendors
