We are proud to have a set of behaviors that reflect our culture and guide our decisions, defining how we work together. These behaviors are assessed as part of the hiring process:
We offer a hybrid approach to home and office working to provide an adaptable experience for all employees. We expect some working time to be spent in office, to promote a strong collaborative environment with good team integration but are accommodating to different home working requirements.
Responsibilities
- As a creative design engineer with a knowledge of I/O subsystems and SoCs you will be part of a team integrating PCIe, DDR and other IP for SoCs.
- You will work with the project team to understand and review the architecture and develop the design specifications.
- Your key responsibilities will include writing micro-architecture specifications, developing the RTL, fixing bugs, and running various design checks.
- You will work with the verification team to review test plans and help debug design issues.
- You will work with the performance analysis team to evaluate and improve I/O performance.
- You will work with backend implementation team to help with floor planning, writing constraints, and timing closure.
- You will also contribute to developing and enhancing the design methodologies used by the team.
- You will guide and support other members of the team as needed to enable the successful completion of project activities.
- You will balance other opportunities such as working with Project Management on activities, plans, and schedules.
Required Skills and Experience:
In addition to bringing your accomplishment of either Bachelors or Master's degree in Computer Science or Electrical/Computer Engineering or a similar related field and 7+ years experience working in design of complex compute subsystems or SoCs, you will need:
- Strong knowledge of digital hardware design and Verilog HDL.
- A thorough understanding and experience of the current design techniques for complex SoC development.
- Experience developing and integrating subsystems for PCIe, DDR/LPDDR, HBM, UCIe, Ethernet
- Experience creating design specifications and developing RTL for SoC projects
- Experience in Static design checks, including CDC, RDC, X-Propagation, Linting
- Experience with Perl, Python or other scripting language
'Nice to Have' Skills and Experience:
- Experience with ARM-based designs and/or ARM System Architectures
- Experience with SystemVerilog and verification methodologies - UVM/OVM/e
- Experience leading small teams or projects
- Experience or knowledge in the following areas
- Synthesis and timing analysis
- Power management techniques
- DFT and physical implementation
In Return:
We are proud to have a set of behaviors that reflect our culture and guide our decisions, defining how we work together. These behaviors are assessed as part of the hiring process:
- Partner and customer focus
- Teamwork and communication
- Creativity and innovation
- Team and personal development
- Impact and influence

Arm Compensation & Benefits Highlights
-
Equity Value & Accessibility — Broad RSU grants are positioned as a core part of total rewards post‑IPO, and a 2024 ESPP allows up to a 15% discount with lookback to the lower of the start or purchase‑date price. Together these programs expand ownership opportunities across the workforce.
-
Retirement Support — Investor filings state a 401(k) match of 100% up to the first 6% of employee contributions, with the same match rate cited for executives and the wider workforce. This signals strong employer support for long‑term savings.
-
Leave & Time Off Breadth — Benefits include a fully paid four‑week sabbatical after four years, enhanced maternity/paternity and parental bonding leave, a quarterly Day of Care, and paid volunteering time. These offerings indicate breadth well beyond standard PTO.
