Creative Director, Flow Studio  

Autodesk builds the tools behind the world around us. From the buildings we live in to the products we use, our customers design and make   what’s   next, and we power that work.     We’re evolving into a Design and Make platform, connecting the full lifecycle from idea to reality.   It’s   a shift from standalone tools to a more connected, intelligent system, and   it’s   changing how things get made.     Within Autodesk, Flow Studio is building a new category at the intersection of AI, creativity, and storytelling.  

Why this role exists  

Flow Studio sits at the intersection of product and culture. We need a Creative Director who can define how the product shows up in the world, not just through campaigns, but through everything we make.     This role requires a builder mindset. Someone who can create a distinct creative voice,   operate   at speed, and bring a level of craft that stands out in a crowded AI and creative tools landscape.

Provide clear creative direction and actionable feedback

ownership   

high standards  

 

What great looks like  

Flow Studio work stands out   immediately   in a crowded AI and creative tools space  

Creative feels culturally relevant while staying rooted in the product  

We show, not tell. The product is visible, understood, and desirable  

Social content is as considered as campaign work  

The team delivers high-quality work at speed without losing craft   We consistently create work people want to watch, not skip  

What you bring  

Strong portfolio across brand, product, and social content  

Experience in media, entertainment, or film is a strong plus  

Background in fast-moving, content-driven environments  

Ability to concept and execute, not just direct  

High taste level with attention to detail and storytelling craft  

Understanding of how AI is shaping creative workflows and output  

Comfort working across formats including film, social, digital, and product storytelling  

Collaborative mindset with a bias toward making  

 

About the team  

We’re   building a fully integrated marketing and creative team designed for how modern products grow. High taste, high velocity, and a clear focus on impact. We believe the best creative comes from teams that care deeply about the product and move fast enough to keep up with it.
