Creating a better world designed and made for all

We have ambitious goals of delivering a trusted Design and Make Platform for our customers and empowering Autodeskers to shape the world and their future. As the world navigates unprecedented challenges, our shared purpose is more important than ever before. Thankfully, our global team comprises some of the most optimistic, relentless, brave, ingenious, and trusted problem solvers on the planet.

Autodeskers power forward together, driven by five shared values and our commitment to acting as One Autodesk. This ethos permeates Autodesk— guiding the way we work and treat each other, informing how we connect with customers and partners, and defining the way we show up in the world.

We know that our culture isn’t just an abstract collection of ideals; it is a dynamic force shaped by the everyday actions and decisions of Autodeskers. That’s why we have a simple acronym, One ORBIT, that helps us remember what it means to be an Autodesker – One Autodesk, our way of working, and five values: Optimism, Relentless, Brave, Ingenious, and Trusted.
