Full job description

Job ID 2026-17850 Date posted Jul. 20, 2026 Location Cambridge, United Kingdom Category Hardware Engineering

Job Overview:

Are you passionate about building, automating, and improving hardware systems? We're looking for a Hardware Technician who enjoys solving problems and getting things working - reliably and efficiently.

Our team manages a large-scale FPGA prototyping farm used to validate Arm's latest technologies. This role offers an opportunity to apply hands-on engineering skills while working in a fast-paced, innovative environment at the forefront of hardware development.

As a key member of a creative and highly technical team, you'll plan, deploy, maintain, and troubleshoot the latest FPGA prototyping systems, working closely with leading EDA vendors and engineering teams across Arm. Your attention to detail, practical problem-solving skills, and commitment to quality will play a vital role in enabling successful hardware validation.

Responsibilities:

Build, install, configure, and debug FPGA prototyping systems within our data centres.
Generate, execute, and analyse system-level diagnostic and validation tests.
Troubleshoot hardware and infrastructure issues, providing technical support to engineering teams.
Document standard operating procedures, best practices, and drive continuous improvements across multiple sites.
Manage shared FPGA data centre infrastructure, including inventory, tools, hardware assets, and documentation.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve the scalability, reliability, and efficiency of the FPGA prototyping environment.

We're looking for someone who is curious, collaborative, and enjoys working with evolving hardware platforms and technical challenges. The ideal candidate is a proactive self-starter who takes ownership of problems, works well with others, and knows when to seek input while driving issues to resolution.

This is a hands-on role based across our Cambridge, Harlow, and Redhill labs and data centres. The role requires regular travel between Arm sites and data centres within the region and occasional travel within the UK. You'll be working in a dynamic environment that may include physical tasks and data centre activities.

Required Skills and Experience:

Comfortable working from the Linux command line.
Good understanding of basic networking concepts and physical connectivity.
Familiarity with common cable and connector types and their appropriate use.
Ability to safely handle large or awkward system hardware, including occasional two-person lifts.
Comfortable working in warm and noisy lab or data centre environments (appropriate PPE is provided).
Full UK driving licence (or ability to travel independently between Cambridge, Harlow, and Redhill sites as required).

“Nice To Have” Skills and Experience:

Experience gained through work, university, or personal projects is equally valued. We'd love to hear if you have experience with:

Hardware validation, system integration, or lab automation.
Linux shell scripting (Bash, Python, or similar).
FPGA prototyping or FPGA development platforms.
Computer architecture, embedded systems, or FPGA fundamentals.

In Return:

At Arm, we believe in developing talent and supporting people to grow into their strengths. You'll enjoy a balanced and dynamic working environment, varied technical challenges, and the freedom to experiment, innovate, and continuously improve. You'll work alongside a friendly, passionate team that values collaboration, technical excellence, and creative problem-solving while helping to deliver the next generation of Arm technology.

Additional Information:

Please note that no relocation package is available for this role.

Accommodations at Arm

At Arm, we want to build extraordinary teams. If you need an adjustment or an accommodation during the recruitment process, please email [email protected]. To note, by sending us the requested information, you consent to its use by Arm to arrange for appropriate accommodations. All accommodation or adjustment requests will be treated with confidentiality, and information concerning these requests will only be disclosed as necessary to provide the accommodation. Although this is not an exhaustive list, examples of support include breaks between interviews, having documents read aloud, or office accessibility. Please email us about anything we can do to accommodate you during the recruitment process.

Hybrid Working at Arm

Arm’s approach to hybrid working is designed to create a working environment that supports both high performance and personal wellbeing. We believe in bringing people together face to face to enable us to work at pace, whilst recognizing the value of flexibility. Within that framework, we empower groups/teams to determine their own hybrid working patterns, 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.

Equal Opportunities at Arm

Arm is an equal opportunity employer, committed to providing an environment of mutual respect where equal opportunities are available to all applicants and colleagues. We are a diverse organization of dedicated and innovative individuals, and don’t discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or status as a protected veteran.
