PS Software | Technology & Innovation Organization

HP is accelerating its investment in AI-powered experiences across Personal Systems, delivering intelligent software solutions that ship on millions of devices globally. To lead this effort, we are seeking a Director, Software Engineering - AI Solutions, a senior, hands-on technical leader who owns the end-to-end AI solutions portfolio within PS Software.

This role spans strategy, architecture, and large-scale execution, sitting at the intersection of AI, software engineering, and business outcomes. You will lead multiple cross-functional and globally distributed teams responsible for delivering high-quality AI solutions across on-device and hybrid environments, ensuring alignment with HP's long-term product roadmaps and commercial objectives.

This is not a research or product-only role. The ideal candidate is a technical AI/software leader who has built and scaled real, shipped AI solutions, understands the constraints and opportunities of on-device AI, and can drive execution across a complex, matrixed organization while influencing without authority.

• Lead and scale multiple engineering teams across geographies, driving alignment, execution rigor, and delivery excellence
• Drive on-device AI capabilities as a core focus area, ensuring solutions are performant, scalable, and differentiated on HP devices
• Guide system architecture and engineering execution for hybrid AI solutions spanning on-device and cloud services
• Partner closely with Product, Commercial, Hardware, Chipset, Security, Privacy, and External Partners to deliver integrated, high-quality solutions
• Oversee solution quality, reliability, integrations (3rd-party and hardware/chipset), and long-term platform competitiveness
• Translate business and product needs into clear technical priorities, roadmaps, and feature delivery plans
• Define success metrics, assess feature impact, and know when to pivot or evolve solutions based on business and customer feedback
• Identify and mitigate technical, delivery, and operational risks across complex dependencies
• Own budget planning, investment estimates, and future funding needs for the AI solutions portfolio
• Coach, develop, and retain top engineering talent, fostering growth, accountability, and HP leadership behaviors

What We're Looking For

Required Experience & Capabilities

• Senior-level engineering leader (Director / Sr. Director / Group Manager) in AI, ML, or platform software
• Proven experience leading shipped AI products (consumer or enterprise) at scale
• Strong on-device AI expertise (critical) with experience delivering AI on constrained or edge environments
• Working knowledge of cloud-based AI services and hybrid architectures (cloud + on-device)
• Experience managing large, complex software platforms with high visibility and business impact
• Ability to balance deep technical credibility with strong business and commercial acumen
• Demonstrated success operating in matrixed, global organizations
• Strong cross-functional leadership skills and ability to influence without authority

Preferred Background

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or related field
• 10+ years in the software industry
• 5+ years leading software engineering organizations
• Prior hands-on experience as a software architect, engineer, or technical lead
• Exposure to hardware and chipset integrations a strong plus
• Experience at large-scale technology companies (devices, platforms, SaaS, consumer tech) strongly preferred

Leadership Profile

You bring an AI platform "GM mindset" with engineering depth - someone who can set vision, make architectural trade-offs, drive execution through others, and represent AI solutions confidently with senior stakeholders, while staying grounded in technical reality.

The pay range for this role is$174,050to$278,450USD annually with additional opportunities for pay in the form of bonus and/or equity (applies to United States of America candidates only). Pay varies by work location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
