Position Overview

The Platform Services and Emerging Technologies (PSET) Technical Program Manager (TPM) role is a critical position, ensuring that engineering teams achieve key business outcomes. Our TPM works across the PSET domain areas to formulate and deliver technical solutions, taking responsibility for complex programs and initiatives from planning through execution. This includes delivery forecasting, managing risks, dependencies, and ensuring alignment with stakeholders. In this role, you will engage with cross-functional teams, other Autodesk divisions, or external partners to drive key aspects of technical solutions, strategic planning, and address cross-team dependencies and relationships.

As the ideal candidate, you possess strong technical expertise and the ability to influence both leaders and peers. You have a bias toward action, champion business outcomes over merely performing development activities, and proactively manage stakeholders while building relationships with customers. You thrive in collaboration, working as an "equal partner" with engineers, architects, product managers, experience designers, and product owners. You are also an Agile practitioner with deep expertise in supporting and enabling engineering teams.

You will report to the Sr. Manager of Technical Programs. This is a hybrid position based in Pune.
