  • Propose and demonstrate new Operating-System (e.g., Linux) and/or firmware based mechanisms to improve power and thermals.
  • Document and communicate architectural concepts and results clearly and credibly across both external and internal audiences, ranging from individual hardware or software development engineers, to architecture community peers, and to high-level technology and business leadership.
  • Plan and collaborate with external partners and other groups in Arm to gain consensus and successful landing of proposed architecture.
  • Create and/or maintain Arm standard specifications.
Requirements
  • Bachelor of Science degree in EEECECECS or related fields.
  • Strong programming skills using languages such as C, and experience developing Linux kernel drivers and embedded firmware.
  • Understanding of power management mechanisms in Operating Systems (like Linux, Windows) and firmware.
  • Working experience using firmware interfaces such as ACPI or device tree.
  • Proven record of driving features from concept to realization working across organizational boundaries and external partners.
Preferred Skills and Experience
  • Arm CPU and SoC system architectures.
  • Knowledge about power and thermal management software, firmware, and systems across market segments like servers, mobiles/laptops, IoT, and automotive.
  • Understanding the key use cases, design constraints, and workloads in a modern smartphone, laptop, or Server SoC, including use of virtualization.
  • Debuggers and other tools and techniques to analyze how the OS and applications use the underlying hardware.
  • Experience driving standards and specifications.
