More than 13,000 customers, including Duracell, McDonald's, Shell, DHL and Volvo, use MaintainX to cut unplanned downtime and run better operations, across 13.9 million managed assets and 79.5 million completed work orders.\nIn August 2026 MaintainX became part of Autodesk, joiningAutodesk Operations Solutions, the organization unifying Autodesk's operations platform alongside Tandem, FlexSim and Fusion Operations. Autodesk's strategy is to converge design, make and operate into one continuous lifecycle: design an asset, build it, run it, then feed what you learn running it back into the next design. Autodesk had design and make. Operate is the phase that tells you what actually happened, and it is ours.\nThe Role:\nWe are seeking a visionary and execution-driven AI leader to define and scale our AI strategy and organization. This leader will drive innovation across Agentic AI and Machine Learning solutions to ensure MaintainX becomes the category-defining intelligence layer for industrial operations.\nWork Intelligence: Conversational and Agentic AI solutions to empower frontline teams to digitize their operations, schedule and execute work, manage inventory and deliver insights.\n\nAsset Intelligence: Transforming raw machine and sensor data into actionable insights, predictive models, prescriptive recommendations and automated workflows to reduce downtime and labor costs. The vertical scope encompasses integration with OT/IT platforms/protocols, Machine Learning platform, full-stack product development and various sensor modalities such as tabular, vibration, and image data.\n\nGTM Intelligence: Accelerate MaintainX's and potentially Autodesk’s business by building AI-powered agents, tools, and internal products that help our revenue, service, and operations teams move faster, close smarter and scale. The flagship platform is MaintainX's data intelligence layer (Atlas) - a unified, agentic system that connects our internal knowledge with external signals. Atlas empowers agentic or conversational solutions through the tools teams already use such as Salesforce and Claude.\n\nYou’ll shape how MaintainX and potentially Autodesk Operations Solutions leverages predictive, generative and agentic AI to unlock new enterprise value. You’ll partner cross-functionally with not only Engineering, Product and Design, but also Marketing, Sales and Customer Support; while building and leading a world-class AI/ML team.\nWhat You’ll Do:\nAI Strategy & Vision\nDefine the long-term product and platform vision with progressive milestones and KPIs.\n\nEmpower every MaintainX engineer to incorporate Agentic AI tools into their feature development flows.\n\nTranslate emerging AI/ML research (GenAI, anomaly detection, RUL prediction, multimodal fusion) into production-ready solutions that deliver measurable customer value.\n\nBuild and evangelize Autodesk and MaintainX’s position as the AI leader in CMMS/EAM, differentiating through workflow-native intelligence.\n\nExecution & Delivery\nLead the design and build of scalable Agentic AI platforms: Retrieval augmented generation (RAG) systems, evals and agentic orchestration frameworks.\n\nBuild a data ingestion, processing and inference pipelines that can scale to millions of unstructured documents and videos.\n\nDrive delivery of predictive models across sensor modalities (tabular, vibration, IoT, multimodal), balancing time-to-market with reliability and scalability.\n\nEnsure models are explainable, trusted, and deeply embedded into MaintainX workflows - not siloed features.\n\nPeople Leadership & Organization Building\nBuild and scale a high-performing AI organization spanning platform, machine learning and product teams.\n\nHire and develop technical leaders; create a culture of innovation and accountability.\n\nEstablish a feedback-driven and high performance culture, empowering teams to take calculated risks and learn from successes and failures.\n\nCross-Functional Leadership\nRepresent AI internally and externally as a thought leader - with executives, customers, and industry stakeholders.\n\nPartner with Product and Design to translate customer needs into AI-powered workflows.\n\nCollaborate with GTM teams to develop AI messaging, customer pilots, pricing strategies, and case studies.\n\nAbout You:\n12+ years of experience in applied AI/ML, with 7+ years leading teams in high-growth, data-driven technology companies.\n\nProven success designing, building and deploying predictive deep learning models into production at scale (ranking & recommendation systems, anomaly detection, forecasting, multimodal).\n\nTrack record of organizational leadership: building AI/ML teams, hiring senior technical leaders, and scaling organizations through growth.\n\nDeep expertise across one or more: multimodal ML (sensor, text, image, vibration), MLOps or Agentic AI frameworks.\n\nAdept at operating at multiple altitudes: from architecture design reviews to C-suite strategic planning.\n\nComfortable working in fast-moving environments; you balance speed with reliability and long-term vision.\n\nStrong communication skills, able to influence across disciplines, present to executive leadership and inspire both technical and non-technical stakeholders.\n\nEntrepreneurial mindset: thrives in ambiguity, biases for action, and balances long-term vision with near-term execution.\n\nOur mission is to keep the physical world running. Factories, fleets, hospitals and campuses stay up because the people who maintain them have tools worth using. That is what we build.\nCompensation and benefits. Base pay is one part of the package. Depending on the role, compensation may also include commission, an annual bonus and equity. Benefits differ by country. For roles in the United States, Autodesk’s benefits are described at benefits.autodesk.com. For roles in Canada and other countries, the plan differs on health coverage, retirement and leave, and your recruiter will walk you through it.\nBelonging. We take pride in a culture where everyone can thrive. More at autodesk.com/company/global-belonging.
