Description
Are you highly inquisitive with a committed approach to improving performance? Do you want to make an impact on the future of Smartphone and Laptop computing?


We are looking for experienced engineers with a strong understanding of computer architecture and performance analysis to investigate existing and emerging use-cases to help define future IP from Arm and our partners.


Job Overview:

We use our knowledge of hardware and software to build a deep understanding of critical use cases. We consider how workloads utilise available compute and memory resources. We investigate how advancements in SoC topologies, processor design and softwarewill help improve user experience. Our focus is on ARM based heterogeneous computing systems in the mobile, laptop, wearable, and digital TV segments.


We identify, investigate, and potentially develop representative content across the power/performance range of workloads, and understand the impact on user experience through analysis and collection of data such as PMU counters for regions of interest.


We communicate analysis outcomes to engineering teams through various means, including presentations and transfer of analysis data in a format that is useable by these teams.

We partake in technical discussions with Arm Partners, communicating observations, and developing an understanding of workloads are meaningful to our partners, and what their concerns are particularly with regards to performance and efficiency.


Responsibilities:


  • Development, decomposition and characterisation of workloads based on complex realworld usecases
  • Production of reliable, robust research and analytics to inform future engineering and technology requirements
  • Investigation into new ideas for workload analysis and development of new tools and flows.
  • Simulation of future SoC IP configurations to explore full system performance and to help influence partners IP selection.
  • Profiling generationongeneration performance of mobile SoCs to fully understand the competitiveness of Arm based devices.

Required Skills and Experience:


  • University degree or equivalent in Computer Science or Engineering, although other fields will also be considered
  • Knowledge of computing hardware in areas such as CPU and GPU architecture, and SoC design
  • Practical understanding of factors which influence device performance
  • Software development experience ideally relevant to performance analysis and benchmarking in languages such as Python and Java
  • Familiarity with statistical analysis and confidence presenting data for different audiences
  • Excellent communications skills, ambitious and wellorganised
  • Highly productive with the ability to work well as part of a team

"Nice To Have" Skills and Experience:
We provide competitive remuneration packages including private medical insurance. We provide a thriving environment where we are encouraged to be our "brilliant self", with a "Passion for Progress", and a "We Not I" mentality
