- Ensure agentic experiences are context-aware and continuous across surfaces.
- Establish standards for critical user journeys (CUJs), tone/voice, conversational/LLM design and agentic experiences.
- Define a multi-year content strategy and conversational UX vision for the AEC portfolio, rooted in customer outcomes.
- Create the north-star vision for AI-assisted and agentic experiences (chat, copilots, proactive workflows, voice) and the content foundation that powers them.
- Build and lead a high-performing team (content strategists, conversation designers, content ops, UX writers).
- Shape how content becomes the backbone of agentic experiences, ensuring AI systems can reason over structured content, act on behalf of users, and deliver trustworthy outcomes.
- Create governance practices that ensure agentic systems always act within defined boundaries of accuracy, compliance, and trust.
- Define how content enables agents to personalize workflows by role, discipline, and project phase—anticipating user needs, not just responding.
- Partner across Product, AI/ML, Engineering, and Design Systems to turn content into a strategic enabler of autonomy and reasoning.
- Partner with AI/ML teams across Autodesk to integrate LLMs and emerging agentic frameworks (e.g. reasoning + tool use + memory) into AEC workflows.
- Define evaluation systems to ensure agents can generate reliable, actionable responses grounded in authoritative content.
- Build a scalable content model (taxonomy/ontology, metadata, structured content) to fuel both human-facing UX and machine-readable knowledge for agents.
