About the software and large-scale systems group and our work

The Software and Large-Scale Systems Research works on distributed systems, edge computing, compute-in-memory, and computer-in-network among other subjects. We are interested in High Performance Computing, Computational Engineering, and High-Performance Data Analytics.

Through our work we try to address three main questions: How do we balance hardware diversity with the software ecosystem? How do we evolve ARM technology to be relevant at large-scale (scale-up as well as scale-out)? What is the necessary infrastructure for evaluating large scale systems (in the absence of hardware)?

Our research is currently focussed on two threads. One is developing IoT Gateway Reference Design and Proof of concept deployments around various edge use cases (Cities, Agriculture, Rural, Telco). The second one is exploring edge computing, networking, and data centre scale cluster solutions.

Are you passionate about setting new standards in physical implementation? Are you interested in working for one of the most successful IP design companies in the world? Do you want to take part in designing the next groundbreaking GPU?

This is a rare opportunity for you to become a part of the Arm GPU group. The GPU group is at the forefront of advanced GPU IP products for the consumer, wireless and automotive infotainment markets. You will join an international team of hardworking engineers working together to remain on the state of the art of IP and SoC development techniques. This successful team has been central to the development of recent graphics processors.

In this role your directive will be to influence RTL development whilst innovating, crafting and deploying the latest implementation techniques on live projects. You will provide the quality support that our customers desire and collaborate with them to develop the best products that help influence the world, and you will have the opportunity to drive EDA vendors on leading-edge processes (eg. 7nm FinFET) whilst pushing the boundaries of power efficiency and influencing physical library development.

A wide range of learning opportunities and challenges will be available. You will also be given the opportunity, if desired, to travel and work with our other teams.

Location

This opportunity is based in Cambridge (UK)

About the Role
As an Imaging R&D Graduate, you will be joining the ISP team within Arm, which develops and designs image processing technology that is used in a range of applications including automobiles, security cameras, and drones. The algorithm development team is tasked with solving a variety of image processing problems, from denoise to demosaic, auto-exposure to motion compensation. Our algorithms must satisfy the competing demands of high image quality, and efficient, low-power hardware implementation.

This is an opportunity to contribute towards the next generation of imaging systems, for both human viewing and autonomous driving applications.

Why should you apply?

• You want to work in leading digital imaging technology.
• You have a keen interest in imaging or image processing, which you would like to develop into a career.
• You want to see tangible results from your work.
• You want to have the opportunity to learn from the best engineers and start a career in a leading imaging and vision technology group.

What will I be accountable for?

• Working with image quality experts to determine requirements for processing.
• Developing new image processing algorithms, often from early concept phase and typically in a mathematical modelling environment.
• Implementing novel algorithms, starting from a floating-point model
• Testing and benchmarking of the results, working closely with our image quality experts.
• Collaborating with the wider engineering team to arrive at an architecture and fixed-point model of your algorithm, optimized for hardware or software implementation

Job Description

Are you passionate about setting new standards in physical implementation? This is a rare opportunity to become a part of the Cambridge CPU implementation team. The CPU group defines, designs and validates Arm's processor IP - the brains inside billions of electronic devices.

As a physical implementation engineer, you will join the successful team that has enabled huge volumes of next-generation high-efficiency processors, including the hugely successful Cortex-A53, the most recent Cortex-A55 through to the smallest and most energy efficient Cortex-M0+ processors.

In this role your mandate will be to influence RTL development whilst innovating, crafting and deploying the latest implementation techniques - from RTL, thorough place and route to STA - on live projects. You will provide the quality support that our customers desire and collaborate with them to develop the best products that help influence the world, and you will have the opportunity to drive EDA vendors on leading-edge processes (eg. 7nm FinFET) whilst pushing the boundaries of power efficiency and influencing physical library development.

What things will you be responsible for

Our team is tightly integrated with the RTL design teams and this gives you an unrivalled opportunity to improve your knowledge of CPU microarchitecture. Your wide-ranging set of responsibilities will include:

• The physical implementation of Arm processors using the entire implementation flow from RTL through Place and Route to STA
• Investigating the trade-offs involved in CPU design
• Tackling complex challenges like low power and methodologies for improving the efficiency of implementation
• To understand, plan and address the life-cycle phases of engineering projects
• Working with the sales and marketing teams to support the launch of new cores
• Supporting our customers and enabling them to be successful in the world
• Collaborating with EDA vendors to extend the best in class results from our processors whilst focussing on the ideal user experience

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.
