Job Overview:
The Central Technology (CT) Group at Arm is responsible for examining and defining the future of Arm solutions to the next generation of challenges. We consider the solutions at a full system level involving many components developed by several teams. To get the best out of Arm’s IP, we use performance models to explore system architecture and configuration and ensure that the compute subsystems created using Arm IP deliver the best performance power and area (PPA) for markets like premium mobile, infrastructure and automotive. As a Performance Modelling Engineer, you will be responsible for creating these system level performance models, exploring new technologies and evaluating them. To do so, you will need to understand new features, implement them using performance models, evaluate their behaviour and work with system architects to improve their performance. Responsibilities:
