Responsibilities

Our team of security experts helps Autodesk design, build, deploy and maintain secure products.

We are embedding security in the full spectrum of how we build our products from inception, design, development, testing to how we are running them in the cloud as well as how we are responding to any existing or emerging threats to our products or the building blocks of our products and services.

Our job is to be one step ahead of the bad guys and use expertise, technology and other resources to thwart their efforts to compromise our products and the environment in which they operate.

Our team keeps a single-minded focus on protecting our customer’s data and their investment in our products by strengthening our applications, underlying services and network.

As part of this team, you will help strengthen Autodesk's products by partnering with product and engineering teams to design, build, deploy, and operate secure applications and services.

This role focuses on application security across the software development lifecycle, including secure design, threat modeling, code review, vulnerability assessment, secure coding guidance, and security testing in CI/CD pipelines.
