Distinguished Engineer

Overview
The Central Technology Team within Arm develops key technologies which will form the foundation of future products. You will join a multinational, dynamic, collaborative and highly motivated Graphics team in Central Technology to help craft the direction of our world leading Mali™ Graphics products. The Mali™ Graphics Processor is the #1 shipping GPU.

You will need to have architecture and software development skills, in addition to being able to think creatively. In this role you can expect to be a technical lead where your ideas will make a difference and enable you to make your mark delivering industry leading GPU IP.
Your job responsibilities will be diverse and may include architecture, technology research, hands‑on prototyping and experimental investigations, participating in key industry consortium's, engaging with product groups, working closely together with the engineering team, and taking part in partner and customer engagements.

This exciting position, will offer you the opportunity to work on the newest technology in a collaborative environment to:

• Design and develop the Mali™ graphics architecture for the latest graphics APIs, providing new technologies for products in new and existing markets
• Drive the Mali™ graphics architecture to meet future content demands.
• Perform high level performance modelling and analysis of graphics hardware features, applications, benchmarks and games.
• Develop and improve tools for architectural exploration and performance analysis.
• Understand and analyse system level architectural trade‑offs (including hardware, memory systems and system s/w).
• Collaborate with the Arm engineering team to see your ideas delivered into products.

• BSEE or BSCS required. MS/PhD in EE or CS preferred.
• Minimum 15+ years Computer Graphics experiences or equivalent required.
• A strong history of thinking creatively and communicating effectively in a global team environment, with a practical, organized and analytical approach to work.
• A deep experience and background in Computer Graphics and GPU architecture
• You have an ability to quantify and make trade‑offs between power, performance and area appropriately to meet the requirements of the product.
• You have a strong programming ability: C, C++, scripting.
• Good knowledge of graphics and computer API’s (OpenGL, OpenCL, DX, etc.).
• Excellent team working skills, self‑motivated and results focused.

• A repeated experience of driving architecture development with the focus on performance, power, area and bandwidth (PPAB) optimisations.
• Your previous experience may have involved performance modelling micro‑architecture
• Your previous roles may have included experience of RTL design for GPU's.

In Return:

You will develop the roadmap for Arm’s core interconnect and control subsystems, ensuring they are strategically aligned and technically validated across markets. While the initial focus is infrastructure, you will work across line of business and customers to ensure these foundational technologies are robust, driven, and reusable across Arm’s diverse product portfolio. Your ownership of requirement specs and roadmap rigor will ensure subsystem coherence across product generations — enabling Arm to scale from IP to complete system solutions.

Our 10x mindset guides how we engineer, collaborate, and grow. Understand what it means and how to reflect 10x in your work:

Arm’s hybrid approach to working is centered around flexibility, where we split our time between the office and other locations to get our work done. Within that framework, we empower groups and teams to determine their own particular hybrid working pattern, depending on the work and the team’s needs. Details of what this means for each role will be shared upon application.

In some cases, the flexibility we can offer is limited by local legal, regulatory, tax, or other considerations, and where this is the case, we will collaborate with you to find the best solution. Please talk to us to find out more about what this could look like for you.

At Arm, we want our people…
