Graduate Software Developer, Graduates, Cambridge, UK, Applications Engineering

The SPE (Sales and Partner Enablement) Infrastructure team at Arm is looking for a hardworking and enthusiastic graduate to join our team based in Cambridge with an ambition to become a crucial member of the team.

We combine people, technology and domain specific knowledge to craft tools, services and infrastructure for Arm workforce that improve their productivity. It can be challenging at times, but there are many opportunities for people who take pride in, and enjoy developing these services and systems to make a real difference. 

You will join our established team in working closely with the Sales, Technical Communications and the Arm customer support team to provide them with the tools they need to ensure the success of Arm's partners.

The Role

You will have a chance to work across a range of systems, services and tools, focusing on developing, maintaining, and running the continuous integration and testing infrastructure of our tools. This will include bespoke and third-party solutions. You will be adept at scripting, designing automated tests, and have a track record of picking up and working with different technologies, for example:

  • XML, DITA CMS
  • XSLT
  • XPath
  • JSON, YAML, Markdown
  • Java
  • The Document Object Model
  • Systems integration using REST APIs
  • Jenkins
  • Azure Cloud

Key Accountabilities/Responsibilities

As a key member of a small team of engineers, you will engage with team leadership, project management, and other teams in Arm to deliver high-impact improvements and new functionality to our existing tools and code infrastructure. We use CI / CD pipelines to accommodate auto-generated documentation and varied working practises of our documentation teams across Arm, as well as more traditional CMS offerings. Your primary focus will be on the continuous integration and testing infrastructure, but you will contribute to all aspects of software development within the team; you will get involved in developing / supporting the tools used by the Sales and Application Engineering teams, Linux system administration and technical consulting with other teams in Arm to support requirement and solution definition.

Graduate Concurrency Architecture Verification Engineer, Graduates, Cambridge, UK, Software Engineering

Concurrency architecture verification engineer

Are you interested in concurrency, CPU design, and verification? Then we have just the opportunity for you.

Arm uses innovative tools [1] for modelling and reasoning about concurrency in our products. 

Those tools serve different purposes, such as: clarifying our architecture specification [2], communicating with our partners, and enabling verification of our CPU hardware designs.

This last point is at the intersection of architectural specification and CPU hardware design, which is where your role would be.

We seek to encourage interaction between those activities within Arm and beyond: by working hand in hand with architects and CPU verification teams to understand their requirements, you will improve our methodology and tools. You will also be in charge of inventing and prototyping new ways to verify pre-silicon designs.

This is an outstanding opportunity if you are interested in:

  • developing open-source tools [3] which benefit the Arm ecosystem and wider communities such as language standard committees, compiler and kernel developers;
  • furthering the understanding of an area that has been the subject of intense research in the last decade;
  • demonstrating the impact of formal models on industrial products.

Our tools are written in Ocaml and C; knowing those languages would be ideal, as well as a working knowledge of Linux, git and RTL.

Director, Executive Communications, Experienced Professionals, San Jose (CA), USA, Marketing & Communications

About the Role
We are looking for a passionate story teller. A person who combines an astute business mind with a knowledge and thirst to know more about how technology is shaping our connected world. You will need to engage with our C-suite audience, win their confidence and help shape individual narratives. You must also be a real team-player and confident networker able to build up a bank of ideas from talking to our many world class experts. Whether that is our R&D team looking at shrinking microprocessor technologies or our 5G experts thinking about network transformation.

You should not be constrained by the story-telling form. You may be producing an onstage presentation to 1,000 engineers, or a speech to an audience who only want to know what technology can do for them and not how it works. You may be working with one of our executives to write a monthly blog on industry trends or working with our creative team on a film script. We need someone who is as passionate about the future of technology as we are. Someone who enjoys an intellectual or philosophical discussion but who has narrative ability to sift the soil to find the gold and apply laser focus to get the job done on time, and at the highest quality. Arm is an architect of technologies and markets. We want an architect of our executive story.

What will I be accountable for?

  • Shape the narrative of the C-suite and key business leaders
  • Support and lead content/presentation creation for key Arm and industry conferences, bylined pieces
  • Work with the content marketing, PR, creative, campaign and digital marketing teams to produce narratives that work on multiple story-telling levels and captivate our audiences
  • Research audiences, event agenda, and topics; map the appropriate messages and Arm executive speakers to the opportunities; ensure end- to-end smooth delivery
  • Develop powerful and visually-compelling C-suite keynote presentations, articles and other vehicles that tell our business story
  • Debrief executive and business leads following each presentation to achieve continuous improvement.
