Job Overview:
As a developer of power-efficient processor technology, Arm is ideally positioned to solve challenges facing a wide variety of markets, including Automotive, IoT, Mobile, and Servers. Effective solutions require a "system" mindset and your innovative ideas will support Central Technology to develop system architectures and influence industry-leading IP that underpin each solution.
This diverse role will largely focus on providing software enablement for our next generation CPU and ML accelerator based technologies on target LLM (Large Language Model) use-cases. Typical activities would include application and system analysis, technology research, hands-on software prototyping to understand how software and hardware behaves, experimental investigations, and performance analysis.
You will join a dynamic, collaborative and highly motivated Solutions team based in Cambridge (UK)
Responsibilities:
- Application performance analysis to identify key workloads and optimisation opportunities on Arm CPUs and AI accelerators
- Evaluate workload sensitivity to CPU and AI accelerator (micro-)architectural features, balancing performance trade-offs
- Design and implement software optimisations to improve runtime efficiency
- Hand-craft optimised workloads for new (micro-)architecture exploration and performance analysis
- Propose improvements to existing (micro-)architecture features based on our investigations
- Port and bring-up applications on Arm silicon and modelling platforms
Required Skills and Experience :
- Good understanding of computer architecture and embedded systems
- Experience of software development for a commercial organization
- Strong knowledge of C or C++ programming
- Proficiency in problem solving and debugging skills
- Practical, organized and analytical approach to work
- Good oral and written English skills
“Nice To Have” Skills and Experience :
- Experience with ML software frameworks (e.g. PyTorch)
- Familiarity with ML hardware accelerators (e.g. NPUs, TPUs, GPUs with CUDA support)
- Knowledge of optimising and profiling software
- Experience with assembly programming
- Software development and integration on Linux, Android, or similar systems
- Knowledge of scripting languages, including Python
In Return:
We are at the heart of the world's most sophisticated digital products. Our technology enables the generation of new markets and transformation of industries and society.
