Director of AI-Driven Marketing Orchestration

Autodesk; San Francisco (CA); On-site; USD 151,000 - 271,000; Full time

Job summary

Autodesk is seeking a Director of Marketing AI Orchestration to design and ship the AI orchestration layer for Worldwide Marketing. This builder role focuses on architecture, adoption, and a data-driven measurement framework across multiple marketing functions.

You will drive a platform that defines autonomous versus human-led workflows and ensure governance, trust, and alignment with the enterprise AI roadmap. A strong technical and executive-communication track is essential.

Qualifications

• 10+ years across platform engineering, AI/data product, or marketing technology with at least one tour building and shipping a platform that other teams now depend on day-to-day.
• Deep, hands-on fluency with modern AI: agents, RAG, evals, orchestration frameworks, model selection, and MLOps. Has built, not just bought
• Track record landing technical capability inside a non-technical organization. Adoption is something you engineer for, not hope for
• Strong product sense and architectural judgment. Ships
• Excellent executive communication. Can walk an ELT audience through the architecture and the business case in the same meeting
• Bias toward shipped capability and measured impact over decks, frameworks, and pilots
• Track record building agentic systems or AI-native platforms in a marketing, sales, or customer-facing context

Responsibilities

• The WWM AI orchestration layer. Architect and build the platform that orchestrates AI agents, models, knowledge, and workflows across marketing. Define what runs autonomously, what is human-in-the-loop, and what stays human-led
• Capability roadmap. Sequence what gets built based on impact to marketing effectiveness. Make build / buy / partner calls. Own the budget
• Cross-function integration. Embed the layer into the workflows of every WWM function — Brand & Creative, Growth & Partner Marketing, Industry Portfolio Emerging Business Marketing, Digital Ecommerce, Acquisition & Performance Marketing, Education, Communications, and the new Small Business team. Adoption is engineered as part of the build, not bolted on after
• Measurement. Define and report the metrics that prove the layer is making marketing more effective. Own the case for continued investment
• Governance and trust. Build guardrails for brand safety, data privacy, IP, and responsible AI into the platform — as enforced behaviors in the system, not as policy documents
• Partnerships. Represent marketing's interests in Autodesk's enterprise AI roadmap
