We are looking for a talented and creative Open Source Coordinator who will support the Open Source Software organization.  The ideal candidate will bring strong detail oriented execution and organizational skills to help drive the impact of Arm in the Open Source community.

 About the role

• The position reports to the Director Open Source Communities. The position has working relationships with, but not limited: Software Engineering groups, Global Event Teams, Enterprise Marketing, Legal, Procurement, Finance, Business Line Groups, IT, as well as external service providers.
• Responsible for coordinating activities within the Open Source Office and supporting various aspects of events (including industry trade shows, special events and conferences) and multifaceted projects.
• Some knowledge in project management is highly beneficial
• Working with globally dispersed teams, engaging engineering leads to drive Arm’s Open Source presence at a variety of events from large commercial to grass root community

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.

A musical “tail” that will bring the house down

There are two sides to every story, and when the Big Bad Wolf takes the stand in Piggsylvania’s Trial of the Century, he finally gets his say. But whether he’ll get a fair trial in a corrupt piggy court is anyone’s guess.

In a first-best world, we'd all save enough money and there'd be no scammers. In a second-best world, we'd all know how to protect ourselves.

That's what Sheila Bair thought, too. As former chair of the FDIC, she noticed many kids and adults weren't quite getting the education they needed. So, she decided to do something about it.

Today on the show: What Sheila Bair has learned about American capitalism as one of its top regulators and how she's trying — one book at a time — to help new generations from falling into its traps.

We learned about Sheila Bair's kids books from listener Erin Vetter. If you've come across anything that makes finance fun, email us! We're at indicator@npr.org.

In a small New Hampshire community two sisters, Henrietta and Jane, grow up under the shadow of a folk tale about the ruins of a house near their own. The house, more than a century earlier, was the home of a family of five who, legend has it, were transformed into coyotes.

When Joe Hill launched his career as a writer, he didn't want anyone to know about his famous writer parents, Stephen and Tabitha King. Rather than ride their coattails, he wanted to find success on his own—thus the pen name, Joe Hill.
