Job Overview

Arm’s Strategy & Ecosystems group is hiring in western Europe! Want to help show developers the ML capabilities of efficient, next-generation mobile devices? If so, we should talk!

We are a diverse team of hardworking problem solvers located across multiple countries and our flexible working practices enable us to collaborate efficiently across our different regions. We design and deliver machine learning software packages, tools, and reference workloads that help internal teams and partners explore and evaluate the capabilities of upcoming Arm-based platforms. These efforts support early validation, performance analysis, and enablement of advanced workloads targeting machine learning use cases.

Responsibilities:

  • We apply our deep software expertise and collaborative spirit to work directly with leading technology companies, shaping the future of compute before silicon even exists.
  • You will play a critical role in enabling and validating software stacks on pre-silicon platforms—including simulators, emulators, and prototypes—to ensure the seamless deployment of high-performance solutions when silicon arrives. This includes providing architectural design guidance, as well as designing, developing, and deploying machine learning workloads tailored to pre-silicon environments.
  • You will work closely with multi-functional teams to resolve functional bottlenecks and deliver optimized, production-ready solutions.
  • Responsible for building proof-of-concept ML solutions that showcase upcoming neural accelerators, enabling early adoption, advising product strategy, and helping partners realise their vision.

This is an excellent opportunity to contribute to the solutions powering the Arm GPUs with neural accelerators.

We look forward to receiving your application – and potentially welcoming you to Arm.

Required skills and experience:

  • Good programming skills – preferably C++, OOP and scripting languages such as Python and Bash
  • A desire to have a positive impact both within our team and the wider Arm ecosystem
  • Strong understanding of machine learning fundamentals and frameworks such as PyTorch and TensorFlow

‘Nice to have’ abilities and knowledge:

  • Performance evaluation experience and knowledge of potential pitfalls
  • Knowledge of hardware modelling concepts, including configuration and latency definition files
  • Graphics programming experience with mobile GPUs (e.g. using shaders, Vulkan) and graphics pipeline concepts
  • Ability to use ADB (Android Debug Bridge) for device interaction and log capture
  • Android application or background service development

In Return:

In return, the successful candidate will get to influence the next wave of developers on how best to deploy AI workloads on Arm processors. You’ll have the chance to interact with a wide range of engineers from prospective Arm customers through to members of the Arm ecosystem. Your work will be published widely, whether as technical blogs or open source code repositories.

Accommodations at Arm

At Arm, we want to build extraordinary teams. If you need an adjustment or an accommodation during the recruitment process, please email . To note, by sending us the requested information, you consent to its use by Arm to arrange for appropriate accommodations. All accommodation or adjustment requests will be treated with confidentiality, and information concerning these requests will only be disclosed as necessary to provide the accommodation.

Hybrid Working at Arm

Arm’s approach to hybrid working is designed to create a working environment that supports both high performance and personal wellbeing. We believe in bringing people together face to face to enable us to work at pace, whilst recognizing the value of flexibility. Within that framework, we empower groups/teams to determine their own hybrid working patterns, depending on the work and the team’s needs.
