Scott Borduin, acting CTO of Autodesk, after the departure of Jeff Kowalski, was told yesterday (August 21, 2018) that the position is his for keeps. Scott was previously CTO of Autodesk until 2005, under Carol Bartz. Jeff took over the role of CTO in 2006, according to his corporate bio.

Scott is based in Autodesk’s Portland office. More to come about Scott in his new old position after our interview (soon).

From Autodesk:

Scott has an MS in mechanical engineering and has worked in the CAD/CAM industry since 1984. Scott joined Autodesk in 1993 as part of the Woodbourne, Inc acquisition, and was subsequently chief architect on Inventor. Scott became Autodesk CTO in 1999 and held that position until 2005 when he left to join the non-profit world. He returned to Autodesk in 2012 and has held several senior technology leadership positions since then.
