Practically, the work includes low-level system software (such as hypervisor, OS kernel, and embedded RTOS components) and hardware such as Intel & ARM CPUs along with APUs, MCUs and FPGAs.

Security of computing devices such as PCs, laptops and printers, is an important topic for HP, and HP Labs has a long history of driving innovation in this area through the use of hardware, firmware & system software based solutions. Examples of our work in this space includes using monitoring techniques to protect low level firmware and strengthening the security of the Linux kernel.

Join us in our new office in the heart of the bustling Bristol city centre, within walking distance from the old town cafes and restaurants, in the middle of the city’s thriving startup and academic tech ecosystem. We are looking for curious and creative research-minded individuals who enjoy teamwork, have an excellent grounding in computer science and engineering, theory and practice, and are relentlessly excited to have impact and lead with innovation to solve real world challenges.
