Job  
Date posted 11/05/2026 Location Chandler, Arizona Category Applications Engineering

We are looking for a highly engaged and self‑motivated hardware engineer with CPU architecture/design background, strong interpersonal skills, and a drive for continuous learning. As a member of our Applications Engineering team, you will enable the success of the world's leading semiconductor and technology companies that are implementing the full range of Arm IP in a wide variety of products. Develop positive relationships by working directly with customers, and by providing feedback for product enhancements back into the design cycle.

This role requires physical presence in Chandler, AZ, but with a very flexible hybrid work policy. Relocation accommodations are available. Collaboration with other multidisciplinary teams in the US and around the world is routine; the ability to thrive while working remotely is a must.

• Build targeted test benches and debug simulation waveforms to reproduce and root‑cause customer issues down to the RTL level.
• Develop and lead customer training sessions and design reviews, and gain first‑hand exposure to the technical challenges they face.
• Improve internal and customer workflows by contributing to documentation and authoring knowledge base articles.
• Advocate for customers internally to help drive prioritization and resolution of issues.

• Bachelor’s (BS or equivalent experience) or higher in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
• Interest in and solid understanding of CPU architecture.
• Strong RTL and simulation debugging skills using EDA tools (Cadence, Siemens, Synopsys).
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, and the ability to multitask efficiently with attention to detail.
• Ability to travel and visit other Arm and customer sites (approximately 10%).

• Experience with issue root cause analysis and resolution.
• Knowledge of non‑CPU components such as interconnects and memory subsystems.
• Familiarity with programming and scripting languages (C, Assembly, Perl, Python).

Our hybrid approach allows you to split time between the office and other locations to get work done. Flexibility is tailored to the role and team, and local legal or regulatory considerations are taken into account.

$130,100 - $176,000 per year.

We value people as individuals and our dedication is to reward people competitively and equitably for the work they do and the skills and experience they bring to Arm.

Please note this role does not meet the eligibility requirements for sponsorship; the successful candidate must have the right to work in the US without relying on sponsorship by Arm.

We will ensure that individuals with disabilities are provided reasonable accommodation to participate in the job application or interview process, to perform essential job functions, and to receive other benefits and privileges of employment. Please contact us to request accommodations.
