Real Estate Technology Program Manager

About this role

Real Estate Technology Program Manager Description - Overview As a Principal Real Estate Technology Program Manager at HP, you will own turning workplace technology strategy into capabilities that are delivered, adopted, and scaled across the global real estate portfolio. This role drives a portfolio of innovative workplace and base-building technology initiatives, from pilot through enterprise approval and global deployment, and directly influencing how Corporate Real Estate Workforce Services (CREWS) delivers long-term goals and objectives.

As CREWS’ primary delivery owner and a trusted Customer Zero partner to internal product teams, you will operate with a high degree of independent judgment, bringing real-world requirements, constraints, and feedback that shape solutions designed to scale. Working at the intersection of real estate, technology, and enterprise governance, you will reduce complexity, strengthen cross-functional execution, set functional policy and direction, and help create a more seamless, integrated employee workplace experience.

You operate with minimal direction, exercising independent judgment to navigate complex trade-offs and unclear problem spaces. You are accountable for the end-to-end delivery, learning, and scaling of workplace and base-building technologies across regions, property portfolios, and enterprise functions. By translating business priorities, building trusted relationships, and evaluating emerging and existing technologies, you will curate a collection of initiatives and develop a clear technology roadmap. You must learn quickly, make informed trade-offs, and select solutions to move from site-level pilots through global rollouts. This includes ensuring smooth progression through vendor selection, internal vetting (IT, Cyber, Privacy), deployment, adoption, and operational handoff.

You are not responsible for defining high-level real estate or IT strategy, nor for detailed system architecture or ongoing system administration. Your value lies in disciplined execution, fast learning, strong cross-functional coordination, and principal-level ownership of outcomes in a highly matrixed, ambiguous environment.
