Senior Trust/Security Engineer

Position Overview

Autodesk is a global leader in design and make software for architecture, engineering, construction, manufacturing, and media and entertainment. Autodesk Operations Solutions is building a cloud-first platform that unifies facility operations, asset management, maintenance, process improvement, and building-systems data-connecting the full building lifecycle and day-to-day operations. Central to this platform is Autodesk Tandem, which turns building and asset data into digital twin operational workflows and services. The platform is being developed with a modern web experience, a common information model, published APIs, and connector patterns that enable customers and partners to integrate OT/IT/CMMS systems, extend functionality, and operationalize analytics and managed services at scale.

As a Senior Trust/Security Engineer, you will own and evolve the telemetry, automation, and reporting systems that measure, improve, and communicate the trust, security, and compliance posture of our products and platforms. You will partner with DevOps, Engineering, Architecture, Security, Legal, and Privacy teams to translate trust and security requirements into scalable technical controls, measurable signals, and actionable insights for both engineering teams and leadership. This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who thrives in cross-functional environments, combines security and compliance expertise with strong software, automation, and data engineering skills, and is comfortable turning complex requirements into durable systems, measurable controls, and executive-ready reporting.

Autodesk offers a hybrid work experience.

Responsibilities

Lead the design, implementation, and maintenance of trust, security, and compliance telemetry systems, including automated pipelines that aggregate signals from multiple sources into centralized reporting and analytics platforms.

Develop and maintain automation and tooling to continuously assess compliance with internal standards, security policies, and external frameworks (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST, internal trust commitments).

Define and implement metrics, KPIs, and success indicators for trust and security programs, including control coverage, adoption, exceptions, remediation progress, and operational health, embedding measurement into CI/CD and build systems where appropriate.

Build and maintain scalable mechanisms for collecting, validating, and surfacing audit evidence and control status in a timely, repeatable manner.

Design and maintain dashboards and reporting frameworks for executive, leadership, and stakeholder consumption, translating technical signals into clear risk, progress, and compliance narratives.

Design and implement scalable cloud and platform security controls, including IAM, network security, and data protection mechanisms where relevant to product and platform trust requirements.

Build and maintain secure platform architectures, partnering with engineering teams to improve security design, auditability, and resilience across cloud-based systems.

Partner with Engineering, Architecture, Operations, Security, Legal, Privacy, and Product teams to integrate security-by-design practices into trust signal collection, reporting, and monitoring systems, and to define, track, and communicate trust and security standards across the organization.

Drive remediation by helping teams identify gaps, prioritize fixes, and track progress to closure for trust and security commitments.

Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to data quality, pipeline reliability, automation failures, and reporting accuracy across trust and security systems.

Produce well-documented, secure, and maintainable code for automation, integrations, and reporting tools, following established engineering best practices.

Act as a trusted advisor to leadership, translating complex trust and security data into clear narratives, actionable insights, and recommendations that inform decision-making.

Mentor junior engineers and analysts in trust, security automation, and metrics development, fostering a culture of high-quality delivery and continuous improvement.

Participate in on-call rotation to support production systems.

Minimum Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Security, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.

6+ years of industry experience in security engineering, trust engineering, platform engineering, security/compliance automation, or data/automation roles supporting security or compliance programs.

Strong understanding of security principles, risk management, and compliance concepts, including how they apply at organizational scale.

Experience implementing or operationalizing controls aligned to common frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST, or similar.

Experience producing or automating audit evidence, control validation, and security/compliance reporting at scale.

Proficiency in scripting and automation languages such as Python, Bash, or PowerShell for data processing and pipeline automation.

Experience building automated pipelines that ingest, normalize, and validate data from multiple systems.

Experience designing and maintaining metrics, dashboards, and reporting systems for technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Familiarity with DevOps and CI/CD concepts, including integrating security and compliance checks into build and deployment workflows.

Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and cloud-native services used for data processing, storage, and monitoring.

Experience implementing or supporting cloud security controls such as IAM, network segmentation, secrets management, or data protection mechanisms in AWS, Azure, or GCP.

Working knowledge of data stores and query systems (e.g., SQL, NoSQL, analytics platforms) used for reporting and dashboards.

Experience working cross-functionally with engineering, product, security, legal, privacy, or compliance stakeholders to deliver measurable outcomes.

Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to clearly explain security and trust concepts to diverse audiences, including leadership.

Excellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to adapt to evolving organizational priorities and regulatory requirements.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) platforms or trust reporting tools, and with building workflows that keep controls measurable and audit-ready.

Experience partnering with engineering teams to embed security controls and reporting into SDLC or CI/CD workflows.

Experience with audit preparation, customer trust requests, or external assurance activities such as questionnaires, evidence reviews, or certification support.

Experience translating technical controls and operational data into materials used for customer trust conversations, audits, or executive reviews.

Experience with BI and analytics tools used for dashboarding and stakeholder reporting.

Experience with data modeling, ETL/ELT, or observability tooling used to support security telemetry and reporting.

Prior experience operating in a centralized trust, security, or platform organization.

Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform or CloudFormation.

Experience with threat modeling, secure design reviews, or cloud security architecture in modern SaaS or platform environments.

Industry certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISM, GIAC, CEH) preferred..
