Hurd graduated in 1979 with a BBA (Bachelor's degree in Business Administration) from Baylor University, which he attended on a tennis scholarship, and was also a member of Phi Delta Theta at Baylor. In 2009, Baylor named its tennis complex the Hurd Tennis Center after he helped fund its renovation.

Baylor University honored Hurd with the 2012-2013 Baylor Meritorious Achievement Award (the Baylor Legacy Award) in November 2012 during the University's 103rd anniversary Homecoming celebration.

Hurd was named Vice Chair of the Baylor University Board of Regents Finance and Facilities Committee for the 2016-2017 term.

Hurd’s interest in improving American tennis led to Oracle’s partnership with the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA).

Hurd is married to Paula Hurd (née Kalupa).

Hurd spent 25 years at NCR Corporation, culminating in a two-year tenure as chief executive officer and president. His leadership was marked by successful efforts to improve operating efficiency, bolster the product line and build strong leadership. In the fiscal year of 2004, NCR generated revenue of $6.0 billion, up 7 percent from a year earlier, and net income rose nearly fivefold to $290 million. He was named president of NCR in 2001 and was given additional responsibilities as chief operating officer in 2002. He began working for NCR as a junior salesman in San Antonio in 1980, and subsequently held a variety of positions in general management, operations, and sales and marketing. He also served as head of the company's Teradata data-warehousing division for three years.
