Ecosystem Technology Strategy Principal
HP sits at the center of one of the most consequential technology transitions in a generation. The PC is being redefined by AI silicon, new OS platform capabilities, and frontier AI models, and the companies building those technologies are HP's most important alliance partners:
Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, Nvidia, Microsoft, Google. HP's ability to translate and leverage what those partners are building into differentiated HP products and solutions is one of the biggest drivers of how HP will win in the next cycle. The candidate will play an important role at the intersection of technical teams within HP and with the partner organizations. The candidate will have the technical depth to engage partner architects as peers, the solution architecture instinct to see how partner IP becomes HP differentiation, and the internal credibility to drive those paths through to Engineering.
The person in this role will define and lead how HP systematically converts partner technology into HP product advantage.
Partner Technology Intelligence
Build and maintain a living, technically grounded knowledge base of relevant partner technologies and IP across HP's silicon partners (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, Nvidia), OS partners (Microsoft, Google), and other potential technology providers (e.g., frontier labs, emerging technology companies). The output is a reference actively used by Alliance Leads, Engineering, TIO, Divisions and senior leadership to make prioritization decisions.
Technology-to‑Differentiation Architecture
Produce structured assessments that connect specific partner technologies to HP differentiation opportunities, with a solution architect's view of how the technology would be applied, what it enables, where it fits in HP's product and solution stack, and what the collaboration model should look like. Assessments span three categories: differentiation in HP's core businesses, acceleration of newer strategic areas, and new opportunity areas HP does not yet serve.
Technical Peer Relationships
Build and maintain trusted working relationships with engineers, architects, researchers, and technology strategists at HP's alliance partners. These relationships yield early, high‑fidelity technology signals that commercial briefing channels cannot produce, and they create the technical backbone underneath HP's alliance relationships.
New Partner Identification and Prioritization
Systematically identify and evaluate new potential partners, particularly in frontier AI models, edge AI, specialized silicon and other relevant emerging business and technology areas. Deliver prioritized recommendations on where HP should initiate engagement and maintain a continuous pipeline of new partner candidates.
Connection into HP Engineering
Serve as the structured conduit between partner technology intelligence and HP's hardware and software Engineering organizations. Engineering teams working on product development, feature incubation, and new solution development gain early, actionable visibility into partner technologies that can drive differentiation, and a technically credible internal resource who can help them evaluate applicability.
Cross‑Functional Intelligence and Prioritization
Deliver periodic technology landscape briefings and time‑sensitive opportunity alerts to Division/Product, Engineering, TIO and other relevant technical teams. Senior leadership can articulate which partner technologies HP should be prioritizing and why, and that view is grounded in this role's work.
- Engage partner organizations at a technical peer level.
- Lead technical conversations with engineers, architects, and researchers at partner organizations, going beyond commercial briefings to understand technology direction, IP, and roadmap intent.
- Evaluate partner technologies and IP from a solution architecture perspective: how they work, what they enable, where their limitations are, and how they could be combined or applied to create HP differentiation.
- Develop trusted relationships with technical leaders across silicon, OS, and AI partner organizations that generate ongoing technology…
