Product Manager

Job Requisition ID #25WD94386Positin Overview \ Forma Design is evolving beyond interactive exploration toward a platform where knowledge, intent, and repeatable logic can be embedded directly into design workflows. As teams face increasing pressure to move faster, standardize outcomes, and reuse proven solutions, automation becomes a critical capability. Not as isolated scripts or one-off tools, but as a productized framework that allows design intelligence to scale across teams, projects, and organizations.We are looking for a Product Manager to lead Forma’s automation capabilities. The core responsibility of this role is to define and evolve a geometric/parametric automation framework that makes it possible to build, reuse, customize, and distribute automation content. This includes first-party automations, reuse of existing assets such as Revit families, configurable automation content tailored to specific needs, and the foundations for a broader ecosystem where others can contribute and extend automation over time.You will work as part of a dedicated product team within Forma Design, partnering closely with Engineering and Design in an empowered product triad.Together, you will discover, validate, and deliver automation capabilities that reduce manual work, increase consistency, and allow best practices, standards, and domain knowledge to be embedded directly into design workflows.You will define and evolve Forma’s design automation framework, with a clear focus on enabling customizable, reusable automation content to ensure that customers can explore building layouts faster and with higher precision.This role is about turning design automation s into a first-class product capability. Automations are created as reusable, configurable building blocks that can be applied and adapted across different projects and contexts, without requiring users to write code or understand the underlying implementation.Your work will enable automations that generate, modify, or validate design elements, support reuse of existing assets such as Revit families, and allow manufacturing or system constraints to be embedded into automation content early.Over time, this framework should support an ecosystem where automation content can be created, customized, and extended by both Autodesk and third parties, enabling repetitive design and proven solutions to scale consistently across projects.ResponsibilitiesProduct DiscoveryLead discovery with a strong focus on automation workflowsWork directly with architects and other building professionals to understand how automations can be created, configured and reusedExplore where current tools fall short and where cloud-native automation workflows can create new valueValidate problems and solutions through interviews, prototypes, experiments, and data, ensuring learning continuously informs what the team builds nextProduct DeliveryTranslate validated insights into clear priorities and actionable direction for the product teamPartner closely with Design and Engineering to deliver high-quality solutions iterativelyMaintain a strong connection between discovery and delivery so that learning drives executionProduct Strategy and DirectionContribute to and execute the Site Design product strategy within Forma Design, with a focus on expanding adoption among engineersEnsure new capabilities balance engineering rigor with the flexibility required in early-stage design, and fit coherently within Forma’s broader platform strategyMulti-Disciplinary CollaborationWork closely with adjacent Forma teams to ensure Automations integrates naturally into end-to-end workflowsMake dependencies visible and manageable. Drive alignment around shared intent models and consistent system behavior across the platformGoals and MeasurementDefine clear, outcome-oriented goals for your area of responsibilityEstablish meaningful success metrics related to engineer adoption, engagement, workflow impact, and cross-disciplinary collaborationTrack progress using both qualitative and quantitative insight and adjust direction as neededDecision OwnershipOwn product decisions within the squad’s scopeMake trade-offs explicitly, incorporate input from stakeholders, and stand behind the decisions that shape product direction and value deliveryTake accountability for outcomes, not just outputCommunication and RepresentationAct as the primary representative for the product team in cross team forums and stakeholder discussionsCommunicate progress, challenges, and learnings with clarity and transparencyShare insights broadly to support alignment and continuous improvement across the product areaMinimum Qualifications3-7 years of experience in product management or a closely related role in B2B or SaaS productsStrong skills in customer discovery, problem framing, and experimentationExperience working closely with Design and Engineering in empowered product teamsComfort operating in ambiguity and building products from the ground upAbility to think in systems, platforms, and AI enabled workflowsStrong communication and collaboration skillsInterest in AEC workflows, early stage design, and decision making under constraintsExperience with building design and design automations is a plus but not requiredThis is a chance to make automation a core product capability and use it to raise the baseline of how cities are designed. By enabling design logic, standards, and best practices to be reused and scaled, you help teams deliver higher-quality outcomes more consistently. You will shape a framework that embeds repeatable, customizable workflows directly into design processes, reducing repetitive work and making proven solutions easier to apply across projects, ultimately supporting more efficient, sustainable, and predictable urban development.Ready to build something that does not exist yet, but should?Learn MoreAbout AutodeskWelcome to Autodesk Amazing things are created every day with our software – from the greenest buildings and cleanest cars to the smartest factories and biggest hit movies.
