At Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), we're at the forefront of the AI and supercomputing revolution. Our High Performance Computing (HPC) and AI business unit is building the world's most powerful systems, like the exascale Frontier and Aurora supercomputers, to solve humanity's most complex problems. We are seeking a driven and deeply technical Program Manager (TPM) to orchestrate the development and delivery of our next-generation HPC and AI solutions. A Technical Program Manager (TPM) is a leader who drives complex, cross-functional technical projects from conception to launch, serving as the nexus of engineering, product management, and operations. They act as the bridge between all stakeholders, ensuring that technical projects meet strategic goals, stay on schedule, and fall within budget. This role requires a unique blend of a strong technical background in large-scale systems, program management rigor, business acumen, and exceptional communication skills to manage dependencies across hardware, software, and partner ecosystems.
Job Responsibility:
End-to-End Program Leadership: Own and manage the entire lifecycle of complex HPC & AI programs, from initial concept and architectural definition through development, validation, and customer delivery. Define program scope, deliverables, and success metrics
Cross-Functional Execution: Lead and align a diverse team of hardware engineers (silicon, systems, networking), software developers (firmware, OS, AI frameworks), product managers, supply chain experts, and marketing teams. Foster a collaborative environment to ensure seamless execution
Technical Roadmapping & Scheduling: Create and maintain integrated master schedules that track hardware development milestones (e.g., CPU/GPU integration, system design, validation) alongside software release cadences. Identify and manage the critical path and interdependencies
Risk & Dependency Management: Proactively identify technical and logistical risks, develop mitigation strategies, and manage complex dependencies between internal teams and external partners (e.g., NVIDIA, AMD, Intel). You're not just tracking risks
you're actively solving them
Stakeholder Communication: Serve as the central point of communication for your programs. Clearly and concisely report on status, risks, and decisions to executive leadership and key stakeholders. Translate complex technical issues into clear business impact
Drive Technical Decisions: Leverage your deep technical knowledge of HPC/AI architectures—including accelerators (GPUs), high-speed interconnects, liquid cooling, and system management software—to facilitate technical trade-offs and drive architectural decisions that align with program goals
Manage complex projects following defined PLM process and governance, utilize PDP tools, and implement best practices across each phase of PLM
Create and manage high confidence program schedules with clear dependencies, critical path, and systematic methodology to communicate program status. Manage risks and mitigations, and re-plan as events warrant
Provide clear, timely and objective communication to executive management and other stakeholders
Strengthen core team relationships through collaboration, influence and negotiation. Be able to lead through ambiguity and change
Develop and deliver complete and accurate program materials to facilitate appropriate discussion and drive timely decisions, predictable results, and clear accountability
Drive PLM planning and execution with Business Unit cross functional leads to achieve schedule, scope, and budget program commitments aligned with business and quality targets, process execution and product launch
Proactively identify issues and solutions, and marshal resources necessary to resolve them
Be an agent of change by supporting, applying, and advocating PLM processes and governance requirements
Requirements:
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field
5+ years of experience in technical program management, software engineering, or hardware engineering
Proven experience managing the New Product Introduction (NPI) lifecycle for complex hardware and software products
Demonstrated experience leading cross-functional teams to deliver products on schedule
Agile, PMP, or other program management certifications are a plus
HW, SW,Six Sigma, etc.
Nice to have:
Master’s degree or PhD in a relevant technical field
Direct experience in High-Performance Computing (HPC), supercomputing, or AI/ML infrastructure
Deep familiarity with server system architecture, including CPUs, GPUs (e.g., NVIDIA H100, AMD MI300), networking fabrics (e.g., Slingshot), and storage hierarchies
Hands-on experience with manufacturing processes, Bill of Materials (BOM) management, and supply chain logistics for large-scale systems
Understanding of the AI/HPC software stack, including parallel programming models (e.g., MPI, CUDA), job schedulers (e.g., Slurm), and popular AI frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow)
Exceptional problem-solving skills, with an ability to navigate ambiguity and make data-driven decisions in a fast-paced environment
Experience working directly with strategic partners, suppliers, and enterprise customers.
