About The Team

We investigate and solve hard problems with the goal of improving performance of software running on Arm platforms. We often look into large software stacks with sophisticated interactions. We work closely with our tooling teams and try to come up with innovative ways to identify the root causes of performance issues. We interact with different teams across Arm that can help us get more insight into problems we face or help us improve the performance of the workloads we are working on. Often we will connect with partner companies helping them to understand what performance issues they are facing. Our goals include influencing decisions that hardware design teams make to improve performance of future designs.

Your strong interpersonal skills are vital for success; we are looking for excellent written and spoken English and be capable of writing documentation and mentoring junior engineers.

Responsibilities:

Ensuring the team plans and delivers tasks in a timely and organised fashion.
People management for direct reports
Facilitating continuous learning for the team
Analysing and improving large codebases for different performance aspects.
Working with the rest of the company as well as external partners and open-source communities.
Helping design the strategies to understand the bottlenecks and what investigate next.
Documenting the analysis performed, sharing knowledge within the team and wider.
Producing write-ups and presentations to share with the interested parties as well as help the team handle similar problems.
Working with different platforms that include the latest hardware, but also FPGAs and software models of upcoming hardware designs.

Required Skills and Experience :

You are an excellent problem solver.
You have at least 2 years of managerial experience and a track record of timely, high quality delivery.
Demonstrating excellent communication, being able to clearly convey complex topics.
You will have excellent C/C++ skills
You have experience in profiling and tracing large applications to find bottlenecks of performance.

“Nice To Have” Skills and Experience :

You are passionate about coaching others and growing the team's capabilities.
Understanding how sophisticated software (including web servers, databases, mobile applications, and many others) function and what matters for performance is highly valued.
We are seeking understanding of OS concepts such as processes, threads, locks, virtual memory and how they relate to application performance.
Good awareness of the details of System Architecture (pipelines, caches, MMUs, interconnect, timers, multithreading) is highly useful.
We find understanding of compiler optimizations very useful
Ability to reason about generated assembly code is highly desired
We value familiarity with open-source project development cycles and contribution processes
We are seeking an understanding of Arm architecture and tools

In Return:

On top of the already compelling Life at Arm, we are famous for our team culture - including Friday focus times, regular career conversations, remarkable diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, and continuous improvement mentality.
