Autodesk ICM Customer Success Engineer | UK Career in Columbus
Career & Market Insight
This is a Customer Success Engineer / Technical Account Manager hybrid role for a niche but highly respected water modelling software — a strong career move if you are already working with InfoWorks ICM and want to transition from pure consultancy into the software industry.
Market positioning: Autodesk is a global software leader. Moving into a Customer Success role at this level typically commands a UK salary in the £50,000–£75,000 range depending on experience, with additional bonuses and stock grants on top. The lack of published salary is typical for Autodesk's EMEA roles, but the total compensation package is generally competitive versus pure engineering consultancy.
Skills developed in this role:
- Customer success methodology and SaaS adoption strategies
- ICM scripting, AI integration in water modelling workflows
- Cloud infrastructure strategy (Autodesk Platform Services and alternatives)
- Stakeholder management with large enterprise clients
- Thought leadership — social media, webinars, conferences
Career trajectory: This role bridges technical engineering and commercial customer success — a combination that opens doors to Senior CSM, Solutions Engineering, Product Management, or even Strategy roles within Autodesk or the broader water/infrastructure tech sector.
Green flags: Autodesk's size means genuine career mobility, strong L&D resources, and global exposure. Potential watch-out: The role requires significant self-direction and proactive relationship-building — it suits someone with a consulting mindset, not someone who prefers structured task lists.

Position Overview
We are seeking an expert in InfoWorks ICM (ICM) to assist our customers in adopting and optimizing their software. This is not a traditional software support role — instead you will engage new and existing customers to ensure they are using ICM as efficiently and effectively as possible, from both an IT and engineering perspective. You will use your in-depth experience to enable, support and guide our customers throughout their water projects.
This is a proactive role where you will develop a strategy to understand which customers we should speak to and what we should speak to them about. The role focuses on building relationships within Autodesk — with our Sales, Development and Engineering teams — but principally with our customers, taking ownership of their ideas, concerns and requests to build trust in our software. The intention is to have high-value conversations, then collate and analyse those conversations into a coherent strategy for customer success.
We value hybrid working, and if you live near enough to one of our offices you are welcome to work there some or all of the time, but remote working is also supported. You will report to the Manager for Customer Success, EMEA Water.
Responsibilities
- Establish and maintain working relationships with customers as a trusted technical advisor.
- Collate and analyse customer conversations to identify actions needed to improve the customer experience and promote the use of ICM.
- Add value to the use of ICM — scripting and the use of AI will be key components of this.
- Promote yourself as a subject expert through social media, webinars, conferences, and customer events.
- Develop and deliver expert coaching to drive customer adoption, which could include:
- Model building and import from other model types.
- Calibration or verification against observed data.
- Model application.
- IT strategy, whether using the Autodesk Cloud, a customer's own cloud, or an in-house system.
- Identify and improve self-serve material to drive better adoption of our tools.
- Demonstrate thought leadership and product expertise internally to help drive the product portfolio; work collaboratively with customer success, sales, product, and strategy teams.
- Provide technical assistance and recommendations for customers based on data analytics.
- Travel as required to meet customers at their offices or at conferences.
- Develop knowledge across the Autodesk Water portfolio, particularly in the area of asset management.
Minimum Qualifications
- Knowledge of InfoWorks ICM in a commercial environment with recent industry experience.
- Demonstrable experience of scripting within ICM.
- Degree in a Technical, Engineering, or Science subject, or equivalent experience.
- Experience with cloud environments.
- Expertise in other water modelling products.
- Consulting experience and/or technical project delivery experience with large, demanding customers.
