Principal Product Operations & Strategy Manager, Edge & AI Solutions

Role Overview

The Principal Product Operations & Strategy Manager strengthens how HP’s Edge & AI product portfolio operates by improving alignment, product practices, and evidence-based decision making across solutions. Working across Product Management, Engineering, Design, Marketing, and Sales, this role leads the portfolio operating cadence, maintains shared planning and discovery frameworks, and synthesizes insights that inform product strategy.

What You Will Do

Key responsibilities include facilitating portfolio planning and alignment discussions, identifying gaps and overlaps, maintaining a consolidated view of product plans, and supporting teams in adopting shared discovery, prioritization, and outcome-tracking approaches.

Why It Might Be a Fit

Success requires systems thinking, sound judgment in ambiguous situations, and the ability to turn customer, market, product, and deployment evidence into clear recommendations for product leaders. The role partners with data owners and does not require ownership of analytics infrastructure.
