26WD98437, Product Manager, Machine Simulation, Post Processing & Manufacturing Libraries

Position Overview

Autodesk has fully reimagined the Design and Manufacturing business for the digital automation age, enabling companies to address the most important challenges they face today while preparing for new ways of working in the future. The Autodesk Product Design and Manufacturing Solutions (PDMS) portfolio connects the top floor to the shop floor and supply chain so customers can move seamlessly through each phase of a product's development lifecycle - from design and validation to production engineering, manufacturing execution, and operation - with a best-in-class Fusion Industry Cloud platform and market-leading specialist products.

Reporting directly to the Director of Product Management for Fusion Manufacturing, we are seeking an experienced Product Manager to take single-lead ownership of the Fusion Machine Digital Twin solution. The Machine Digital Twin is critical to the current and future growth of Fusion. You will lead the strategy across CAM machine simulation, post processing, manufacturing content libraries, and the machine / fixture / tool vendor ecosystem - so that every program is verified on a digital twin of the customer's machine, with the right tools, holders, fixtures, and post, before it touches real material. You will also lead the team that builds and curates our manufacturing content libraries, and own joint vendor strategy in partnership with the Autodesk partnership team.

We are a hybrid-first workplace. You'll work with teammates across the globe and travel up to 20% of the time for face-to-face meetings like conferences, team offsites, and customers. The role is based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada - if you prefer office life, we have an Autodesk office in Montreal.

We are open to a range of seniority for this role. Depending on your experience, we will align the final title and level at offer.

Responsibilities

Own and shape the product strategy and roadmap for the Fusion Machine Digital Twin solution - CAM machine simulation, post processing, manufacturing libraries, and the vendor ecosystem Drive CAM machine simulation and verification - multi-axis and turn-mill kinematics, connection moves, rendering with real machine geometry, fixture and tool-block modelling, verification beyond visual Shape post processing - controller coverage, AI-assisted post setup and modification, post-author and customer experience Lead manufacturing libraries and assets - strategy, content quality, and lifecycle of tool, holder, post, machine, fixture, and material libraries; lead the team that builds and curates them Partner with the Autodesk partnership team to create and expand relationships with machine, fixture, and tool vendors Work closely with the Autodesk partnership team to lead the integration of partner add-ins into the Autodesk App Store, ensuring a high-quality experience for Fusion customers Partner with the Autodesk Technology Centers - primarily Birmingham (UK), with access to Boston and San Francisco (US) - to validate machine simulation, post processing, and content libraries against real high-end CNC hardware Drive the outcome metrics that matter - accuracy, coverage, and customer trust across the machine ecosystem Collaborate with our Fusion Design, Fusion Operations, and Fusion Manage teams to streamline machine-trust workflows across the entire process chain Communicate status and deliverables to stakeholders, gather feedback for engineering, and engage actively with the Fusion community

Minimum Qualifications

Deep technical credibility in CAM machine simulation, post processors, machine kinematics, or manufacturing content libraries - gained as a PM, application / pre-sales developer post specialist, simulation developer, library / tooling manager, or machine-builder application developer Working knowledge of CAM workflows on real machines; turn-mill/mill-turn experience strongly preferred Comfort with the machine-builder ecosystem and the major tool / fixture vendor landscape People or matrixed-team leadership - you can set quality bars, prioritise content investment, and grow people Customer- and partner-facing track record Excellent verbal and written English; comfortable with teams distributed across multiple locations and time zones

Preferred Qualifications

Prior PM experience in CAD / CAM / simulation / digital-twin / tooling-library or similar domain Hands-on post-processor authoring; multi-axis kinematic modelling Experience with commercial simulation engines and a clear point of view on how a modern Machine Digital Twin should differ Curating manufacturing content libraries at scale Mechanical, manufacturing, or control-systems engineering degree Familiarity with modern product-development methodologies

The Ideal Candidate

Domain expert with the ambition to grow into an AI-first Product Manager Deep simulation, post, kinematics, or library credibility from day one, and you will visibly expand your PM craft into AI-leveraged territory over the course of the role Work on day-to-day with modern AI assistants and the Autodesk Assistant for Manufacturing across discovery, specification, and operations, alongside AI-fluent PM peers Domain depth and a strong ambition to grow into an AI-first PM role
