You will run experiments on a pre-Silicon SoC environment analysing the performance of the different Arm components (CPU, GPU, etc) using use-cases close to the ones run on mobile phones. You will help bring up some of these use cases and understand their behaviour on future mobile phones. You will be in charge of finding the different potential bottlenecks and help provide solutions. More than anything else, you have a willingness to absorb as much as possible about this new challenge. Given the impact and reach of this field, you’ll be encouraged to share this knowledge with other specialists across the company. This is centred around promoting and demonstrating the Arm core beliefs and behaviours. If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you!
