Position Overview
At Autodesk, we do what no other company can: we help our customers design and make anything. The Experience Foundations team at Autodesk plays a critical role in designing the experiences that make that mission a reality, especially in this transformative moment where seamless digital experiences and AI-powered innovation will empower customers and teams to achieve meaningful outcomes faster.
Within the Experience Foundations team for AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction), we are seeking a Senior Principal Content Strategist to lead content strategy for Forma Construction and Data. This team is responsible for the construction and data management software and platform that enables connected, trusted experiences across the entire build lifecycle with real-time insights. Reporting to the Senior Director of Content Strategy for AEC, this role will be responsible for setting a holistic content strategy and developing standards across the Forma Construction and Data portfolio while also driving strategic impact through end-to-end content strategy on the top priorities. They'll work in close collaboration with content strategy leadership, content designers on individual products, and cross-functional partners to ensure that content strategies and frameworks account for diverse needs across a broad portfolio, scale across use cases and increasingly interconnected workflows, and are future-forward. They will also help shape user interfaces and customer experiences that are easy to use, provide transparency and control, manage expectations, and spark joy. The content systems they help develop will be able to evolve as quickly as the product, supporting frequent releases with a unified, outcome-oriented user experience in a measurable way.
This moment requires us to work in new ways—using AI internally to improve how we operate, make decisions, and deliver experiences, while also building trusted AI capabilities that help our customers automate repetitive work, accelerate creativity, and unlock smarter, more connected workflows. To deliver on our vision, we need exceptional contributors and leaders who are curious, adaptable, customer-focused, and excited to help shape the future of work at Autodesk.
