About Personal Systems

HP Personal Systems operates at global scale, spanning hundreds of millions of devices across commercial, consumer, and gaming segments. We sit at the intersection of silicon, software, and ecosystem, and are defining how AI reshapes the role of the PC in both work and personal computing.

The Personal Systems Engineering organization builds the full stack platform behind HP devices, from firmware and system architecture to OS integration and AI driven experiences. The engineering mandate is to evolve from a device oriented model to a system platform that delivers integrated, continuously improving experiences across the portfolio.

 

The Opportunity

You will own the operating cadence, drive strategic planning processes, and lead cross-functional programs. This role sits at the center of the system, connecting strategy, architecture, and execution, and is responsible for driving clarity, speed, and alignment across the organization.

 

If you are looking for your next challenge to be at the center of a significant technological transformation – this is the role for you.

• Represent the SVP in key forums with senior leaders and partners, ensuring alignment and continuity of direction
