Principal Product Manager

Position Overview

The AEC industry is perhaps the most collaborative industry in the world – each journey to design → plan → build → operate involves many companies from owners to architects to general contractors to the various trades. Autodesk excels at connecting these entities in the AEC ecosystem through a collaboration platform, and the Forma Administration organization is at the heart of that effort.

Responsibilities

• Develop various services for managing: users & business relationships, collaboration spaces, workflows and data.
• 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 configure settings, define custom properties, and manage business units.
• Drive API‑first development and platform product management (building for developers, not just UI).
• Communicate succinctly and accurately, expressing ideas through imagery and prototypes (e.g., Lovable, Figma Make).
• Focus 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 creating a product wiki, running a customer session, or presenting to leadership.
• Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, approachable ideas.
• Thrives in fast‑paced, collaborative environments and is energized by learning and growth.
• Clear understanding of how to define and track success metrics and KPIs.
• A passion for precision: intentional with language and messaging in both customer and R&D conversations.
