20 Hp Product Development Jobs Hiring Near You

Description -

HP's Strategic Technology Accelerator is a fast-cycle engine that connects external technology ecosystems - incumbent ISVs, AI-native disruptors, universities, open-source communities, and VC-backed startups - to HP's product teams. We run POCs, build reference architectures, and turn external breakthroughs into validated proof points that accelerate HP's product roadmap.

We're hiring a Strategist to lead the program end-to-end. You'll run a portfolio of technical POCs, decide how each gets taken to the next level - whether that's a product feature, an open-source contribution, a sales demo, or captured IP - and drive adoption across HP product teams and go-to-market functions.

What You'll Do

• Own the full POC lifecycle across 5-10 concurrent external engagements: scoping, partner alignment, technical validation, and decisive next-step recommendations.

• Determine the right pathway for each POC - HP product roadmap integration, open-source contribution or spin-out, sales demo, analyst briefing, or IP capture.

• Drive adoption of external findings across HP product teams, sales, and marketing by building trust with senior leaders and navigating "not invented here" resistance.

• Capture reusable reference architectures and IP from every POC, even those that don't ship as products.

• Own technical engagement with university labs, open-source communities, research institutions, and strategic ISV partners.

• Report program outcomes to senior leadership with evidence-based recommendations.

What You'll Bring

Required

• 12+ years of experience spanning large-tech and startup or VC environments.

• Demonstrated track record running technical POCs end-to-end with measurable outcomes - including POCs you chose to kill.

• Evidence of influencing product or engineering roadmaps across org boundaries without formal authority.

• Technical depth sufficient to evaluate AI/ML, systems, or adjacent technologies as a peer to senior engineers.

• Experience structuring and managing technical partnerships with external entities (ISVs, labs, or startups).

Preferred

• Engineering or CS degree (BS required; MS/PhD valued).

• Prior experience in corporate development, strategic partnerships, or technology scouting at a large technology company.

• Existing network in AI research labs, open-source communities, or enterprise ISV ecosystems.

• Prior founder, early-stage operator, or corporate VC experience.

What Success Looks Like

• 6 months: POC portfolio defined and running; relationships established with key HP product team stakeholders.

• 12 months: At least two POCs have produced artifacts adopted into HP product roadmaps, open-source projects, or sales enablement; reference architecture library established.

• 18-24 months: Accelerator recognized internally as a durable source of de-risked technology bets; measurable reduction in HP product team time-to-ship on accelerator-sourced work.
