Description -
This role focuses on building fast, secure, agentic, and deeply integrated local AI systems on Windows PCs, spanning language, voice, vision, generative, and system‑level capabilities. The engineer will design, implement, and scale on‑device AI and automation systems that operate directly on real hardware, enabling differentiated PC experiences across multiple software surfaces and real edge devices.
The role blends applied AI engineering, Windows systems development, and large‑scale device automation, with strong ownership across experimentation, evaluation, and production deployment.
*This role requires 4 days per week in the office to support hands‑on development, lab operations, and close cross‑team collaboration*
Responsibilities:
Design and build on‑device AI systems on Windows using C# and native Windows APIs.
Develop system‑level and agentic automation that can observe, reason, and take actions across the Windows OS and applications.
Integrate AI capabilities directly into PC workflows, services, and long‑running system processes, not cloud-only pipelines.
Optimize solutions for latency, reliability, security, and hardware constraints (CPU/GPU/NPU, memory, power).
Build automation frameworks to configure, control, evaluate, and manage large fleets of Windows PCs.
Automate complex, multi-step PC workflows (installation, configuration, validation, recovery).
Operate comfortably in environments that require hands-on interaction with real devices, not emulators alone.
Partner closely with IT, firmware, OS, and platform teams on hardware–software integration issues.
Create and run rigorous, real‑world, automated performance validation on live hardware.
Define evaluation metrics for accuracy, robustness, latency, and regression detection.
Design experimentation pipelines that scale across physical labs of devices.
Leverage and help evolve the team’s automation lab infrastructure for continuous validation.
Lead complex, ambiguous projects with high autonomy, from incubation to production.
Drive disciplined, practical incubation with a strong bias toward production impact across multiple surfaces.
Mentor engineers in on‑device AI, Windows systems engineering, and automation best practices.
Document architectures, experiments, and design decisions to raise the organization’s technical bar.
Education & Experience Recommended
• 7-10 year of experience in software engineering, systems engineering, or applied AI.
• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, computer science, information technology or a related field.
This role operates within HP’s evolving platform‑ and service‑oriented operating model, ensuring that architectural direction, AI platforms, and cloud solutions align with shared platforms, service ownership models, and cross‑organizational priorities
