Job Details
Job Description:
The world is transforming - and so is Intel. Intel is a company of bold and curious inventors and problem solvers who create some of the most astounding technology advancements and experiences in the world. With a legacy of relentless innovation and a commitment to bring smart, connected devices to every person on Earth, our diverse and brilliant teams are continually searching for tomorrow's technology and revel in the challenge that changing the world for the better brings. We work every single day to design and manufacture silicon products that empower people's digital lives. Come join us and do something wonderful.
The Role And Impact
Intel's Consumer Industries vertical focuses on enabling intelligent, secure, and reliable transactional devices across the retail, grocery, hospitality, venues, and retail banking ecosystem. As workloads increasingly move closer to where data is generated and the industry is shifting toward edge native solutions that must operate within real-world constraints such as latency, data privacy, reliability, power, and regulatory compliance. In this dynamic position, you will also lead industry transformation with the design and development of integrated AI solutions that combine hardware, software, firmware, board, and silicon components, pushing technological boundaries to solve complex challenges that will transform vertical industries.
The Consumer Industries vertical team operates at the intersection of technology, industry, and ecosystem partners to translate these constraints into actionable roadmaps and deployable solutions across point of sale, self-checkout, ATMs and edge-enabled transactional platforms. Success requires tight alignment between forward looking roadmap strategy, AI enablement, and practical solution definition, ensuring innovation at the edge can be validated, scaled, and adopted in real retail and service environments.
We are seeking a Solution Lead to operate across portfolio roadmap ownership and customer and partner-facing solution definition. This role is intentionally balanced between shaping long term strategic direction and driving near-term solution clarity, ensuring strategic intent translates into executable, scalable growth and business outcomes. The ideal candidate brings hands-on experience, is comfortable navigating ambiguity, and can align product, engineering, and go-to-market stakeholders around clear priorities grounded in vertical industry needs.
