**Job Requisition ID #** 26WD97909 **26WD97909, Principal Trust Governance Lead** _French translation to follow!/Traduction française à suivre!_ **Position Overview** The Principal Trust Governance Lead will advance Autodesk’s Trust Governance program by defining and operationalizing the mechanisms that enable teams to build and release trusted services and products. This role will evolve and implement a framework directly informed by Trust policies, standards, and procedures that translates Trust expectations into Trust Baselines (the foundational requirements a product/service must implement to be considered a Trusted Service) and holds teams accountable through accurate measurement. This individual will partner closely with Trust domain teams (Security, Privacy, Resilience, Trusted AI), Product and Platform Engineering partners and stakeholders to drive clarity, consistency, and adoption across portfolios without centralizing delivery. The role requires a systems-oriented program leader who can define practical expectations, create transparent operating cadences, and use measurable signals to drive durable posture improvements. **Responsibilities** **Baseline Framework and Trust Accountability** * Evolve and implement a framework to drive the delivery of trusted services and products by deriving Trust expectations directly from Trust Policies, Standards, and Procedures and translating them into Trust Baselines * Define baseline guidance, measurable conformance criteria, and evidence expectations that can be met through repeatable signals (design artifacts, controls, telemetry, testing, and operational readiness) * Establish and maintain measurement and reporting that reflects real adoption and posture—not just process completion—and drive follow-through on gaps and remediation plans **Transparency and Operating Cadence** * Design and run cross-portfolio cadences that make Trust delivery visible and actionable (e.g., portfolio Trust reviews, baseline adoption revi
