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
