Job Overview:

 

Would you like to play a part as a 12-month Intern developing the sort of next-generation technology that’s in the news, while working alongside and learning from some of the world’s best engineers? This is a twelve-month, paid intern opportunity to join our Cambridge team before returning to your studies. Please note your university course MUST allow you to complete a 12-month internship / Year in industry! 

 

Arm’s university programs strive to nurture and build communities of practice for academics, teachers, learners and related software developers. Increasingly, we achieve this at scale by working with eco-system partners such as HW platform vendors, cloud infrastructure providers, ML authorities, philanthropic organizations, Electronic Design & Automation (EDA) companies and credible universities.

We are now seeking two interns to work together on a diverse range of projects, including taking advantage of the latest developments in generative AI technology for both productivity improvement and prospective products. You will be a full member of the team, and contribute to projects with real-world impact, that can enhance your CV.


What could you be doing as an Intern in our team?

 

Typical projects could be:

  • Leveraging, chaining and fine-tuning commercially available ML tools to add smart features to digital educational products
  • Developing easy-to-follow educational material (such as Jupyter notebooks, Dockerfiles, install guides, etc.) based on Arm and partner platforms such as AWS and Raspberry Pi
  • Using industry standard process such as unit test, regression tests and documentation generation
  • Collaborating with technical staff in higher education on validating and testing source code for portability across various platforms
  • Developing software tools for automation and working with internal and external partners to guarantee accurate, legal standards
     

We are looking for individuals who:

 

We are pragmatic about your exact background – the key things are enthusiasm, a willingness to be flexible and have a go and enough technical skills and experience to be credible. That means practically, you will be studying towards a degree in Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics or some other relevant STEM field where computing is important. You will have some experience with procedural programming languages such as C, or OOP languages such as Python/C++.

 

Qualities that will help your application stand out:

 

You might also have some personal interests such as robotics, computer architecture, embedded system design, system on chip design, machine learning or Arm hardware such as firmware for microcontroller development boards, programming FPGAs.

 

Other useful things would be:

  • A general understanding of operating systems, including embedded Linux
  • Experience with version control systems such as Git, software testing frameworks and documentation
  • Experience with deep learning, data engineering or prompt engineering
  • Experience with tutoring, teaching, and demonstrating concepts to learners
  • Experience with content editing/publishing


Additional Information:


Arm Internships require you to be enrolled in a higher education degree and be returning to your course after your internship/placement.  If you are graduating in 2025 you will not be eligible for an Intern role, but you will be eligible for our graduate roles. Our graduate roles will be advertised on the Arm Early Careers website Graduate Jobs at Arm.

 

Internship Start Dates: April and June.

 

We encourage early applications and review them on the first come and first served basis.  We aim to review all applications no later than two weeks after received. In peak periods there may be exceptions beyond this timeframe. We will do our best to keep your informed.

 

In Return:

 

Working on interesting new projects is exciting, but we also know how important it is to receive support. That's why throughout your internship, you can expect regular feedback and development opportunities, social activities to connect with your peers, an end of summer celebration, plus the opportunity to be *considered for future Graduate positions (*subject to performance). #getreadytogrow

 

Our program is crafted to give you the best start possible and support your personal growth as well as professional development.  Gain a competitive salary, supportive rewards package, alongside unparalleled learning and networking opportunities from the best in industry.

How to Write a Machine Learning Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Machine learning now sits at the heart of many UK organisations, powering everything from recommendation engines and fraud detection to forecasting, automation and decision support. As adoption grows, so does demand for skilled machine learning professionals. Yet many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Machine learning job adverts often generate high volumes of applications, but few applicants have the blend of modelling skill, engineering awareness and real-world experience the role actually requires. Meanwhile, strong machine learning engineers and scientists quietly avoid adverts that feel vague, inflated or confused. In most cases, the issue is not the talent market — it is the job advert itself. Machine learning professionals are analytical, technically rigorous and highly selective. A poorly written job ad signals unclear expectations and low ML maturity. A well-written one signals credibility, focus and a serious approach to applied machine learning. This guide explains how to write a machine learning job ad that attracts the right people, improves applicant quality and strengthens your employer brand.

Maths for Machine Learning Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

Machine learning job adverts in the UK love vague phrases like “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals”. That can make the whole field feel gatekept especially if you are a career changer or a student who has not touched maths since A level. Here is the practical truth. For most roles on MachineLearningJobs.co.uk such as Machine Learning Engineer, Applied Scientist, Data Scientist, NLP Engineer, Computer Vision Engineer or MLOps Engineer with modelling responsibilities the maths you actually use is concentrated in four areas: Linear algebra essentials (vectors, matrices, projections, PCA intuition) Probability & statistics (uncertainty, metrics, sampling, base rates) Calculus essentials (derivatives, chain rule, gradients, backprop intuition) Basic optimisation (loss functions, gradient descent, regularisation, tuning) If you can do those four things well you can build models, debug training, evaluate properly, explain trade-offs & sound credible in interviews. This guide gives you a clear scope plus a six-week learning plan, portfolio projects & resources so you can learn with momentum rather than drowning in theory.

Neurodiversity in Machine Learning Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Machine learning is about more than just models & metrics. It’s about spotting patterns others miss, asking better questions, challenging assumptions & building systems that work reliably in the real world. That makes it a natural home for many neurodivergent people. If you live with ADHD, autism or dyslexia, you may have been told your brain is “too distracted”, “too literal” or “too disorganised” for a technical career. In reality, many of the traits that can make school or traditional offices hard are exactly the traits that make for excellent ML engineers, applied scientists & MLOps specialists. This guide is written for neurodivergent ML job seekers in the UK. We’ll explore: What neurodiversity means in a machine learning context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to ML roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in ML – & how to turn “different thinking” into a genuine career advantage.
