Position Overview
Autodesk's Technical Advisory organization delivers a catalog of productivity tools through its digital consulting platform — utilities, integrations, and analyzers that extend Autodesk core technology and help customers work more effectively. The Senior Product Manager, Tools will own this portfolio end-to-end: what tools are in the catalog, how they evolve, and how customer input shapes the roadmap.
Reporting to the Senior Manager, Product Management within Global Delivery & Solutions, you will manage the full lifecycle of tools from field-originated concepts through platform-ready releases. Tools originate from consulting engagements, then go through a development process with our engineering team to meet catalog standards for quality, maintainability, and supportability. You will manage this pipeline and own the decisions about what gets built, enhanced, or retired.
A core part of this role is a program where subscribed customers provide input into the tools roadmap through a dedicated feedback portal. You will manage this program, synthesizing customer requirements that are common across the user base and working with engineering to prioritize and deliver enhancements on a rotating release cycle.
In the first year, you will establish the tools portfolio strategy, define the program operating rhythm with customers and engineering, and build the cross-functional coordination needed to ensure tools are well-integrated into the broader solutions and services offerings.
