Position Overview
We are building a SaaS platform that packages Autodesk Consulting’s intellectual property — proven workflows, implementation guidance, learning content, and tooling recommendations — into a scalable digital experience that connects customers and internal Autodesk consultants to the knowledge they need to drive successful digital transformation. This is a platform built at the intersection of knowledge management, content delivery, and AI-assisted discovery, and it is evolving rapidly.
As Senior Principal Product Manager, you will own the full platform — the foundation on which our Solutions, Services, and advisory experiences are built. You will define and drive the product vision and roadmap, work directly with lead architects and engineering teams across India and Poland, partner closely with our UI/UX designer, and collaborate with Product Owners who manage sprint-level delivery across multiple scrum teams. You will also serve as the connective tissue between three critical stakeholder groups: the customers and Autodesk consultants who use the platform daily, and the Solutions and Services PMs who have a stake in how their content and services are experienced and consumed.
This is a role for someone who is energized by building. The platform is new, the market opportunity is significant, and the roadmap reflects that ambition. The person in this role will thrive on creating structure in a fast-moving environment, making high-quality decisions with incomplete information, and shaping a product that is still defining what it can become.
Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end product vision, strategy, and roadmap for the platform, balancing near-term delivery with long-term platform integrity
- Define and drive the AI-assisted discovery and personalization strategy that enables customers and consultants to find relevant workflows, solutions, and knowledge based on their specific context
- Partner with lead architects and senior engineers across globally distributed teams to translate product strategy into technical direction
- Work with Product Owners to ensure roadmap priorities are effectively executed across multiple scrum teams
- Collaborate with Solutions and Services PMs to ensure platform capabilities effectively support content delivery and service consumption experiences
- Develop deep understanding of the needs of both external customers and internal Autodesk consultants, and translate those needs into platform features and experiences
- Define and track success metrics that reflect both platform health and the business outcomes the platform is designed to drive
- Navigate a complex stakeholder environment, building alignment across consulting leadership, engineering, design, and go-to-market teams
- Contribute to the commercialization strategy, helping define how the platform creates and captures value over time
Minimum Qualifications
- 10+ years of product management experience, with a track record of shipping complex, multi-stakeholder products
- Demonstrated experience building AI-enabled applications, particularly in the areas of intelligent search, contextual discovery, recommendation systems, or personalization
- Experience building products that span SaaS applications, content platforms, and service delivery — not just traditional software features
- Proven ability to operate effectively in early-stage or rapidly evolving product environments where structure and clarity must be created, not inherited
- Strong technical fluency, with the ability to engage meaningfully with architects and engineers on system design, data architecture, and AI/ML approaches
- Experience working with globally distributed engineering teams
- Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence without authority at a senior level
- Nice to have: experience building content lifecycle management products, particularly those involving structured, hierarchical, or reusable content — including authoring, publishing workflows, versioning, and change propagation
- AI/ML frameworks and application patterns, including RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), vector databases, semantic search, and large language model integration
- Modern SaaS platform architecture and API-driven product design
- Content management and knowledge management systems
- Content lifecycle management tooling, including structured authoring environments, library management, and publishing workflows
- Analytics and data pipeline tooling
- Agile delivery methodologies and experience working with Product Owners across multiple scrum teams
The Ideal Candidate
- The ideal candidate has built products where an intelligent discovery layer is the differentiator — where the ability to surface the right knowledge, in the right context, for the right user is what makes the product worth using. They understand what it takes to make that experience feel effortless, and they bring the technical depth to engage meaningfully with engineers and architects on how to build it.
- They are comfortable in the ambiguity of a brand new product. They don’t need a mature backlog or a well-worn playbook — they can create structure where none exists, make sound decisions with incomplete information, and keep a complex roadmap moving without losing sight of the long-term vision.
- They think in systems. They understand that a platform serving customers, internal consultants, and peer product managers simultaneously requires architectural thinking, not just feature thinking.
- They are a natural connector. In a role that sits at the center of platform, solutions, and services, they build trust quickly, communicate with clarity, and have a track record of aligning diverse stakeholders around a shared direction.
- A candidate who also brings experience with content lifecycle management — structured authoring, library systems, versioning, and hierarchical content relationships — would bring a rare and particularly valuable perspective to this role.
