Senior Software Engineer

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will help enable next-generation Arm architecture capabilities in major open-source platforms, including Linux and Android. You will join a team developing the software ecosystem around Arm architectures and systems, working with processor and hardware technology before it is publicly available.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop low-level software that integrates new Arm architecture features across Linux, Android and related userspace components.
• Develop and optimise core operating system subsystems, focusing on performance, power efficiency and security.
• Investigate complex issues across software layers, identify root causes and lead the resolution of performance, optimisation and protection issues.
• Take part in reviews and contribute high-quality work to upstream open-source communities.
• Partner with Arm architecture and silicon teams to deliver and incorporate support for new architectural features.
• Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior and mid-level engineers, promoting guidelines for low-level systems development.

Required Skills and Experience

• Proficiency in C and C++.
• Understanding of operating system internals, including memory management, scheduling, libc and the dynamic linker, and of fundamental computer architecture concepts.
• A structured approach to solving and debugging complex low-level software issues, with experience in profiling, instrumentation and optimisation.
• Interpersonal skills and the ability to communicate effectively in written and spoken English.

Nice-to-Have Skills and Experience

• Familiarity with Android internals.
• Familiarity with a CPU architecture, particularly Armv8-A or newer.
• Familiarity with Python, Bash or other scripting languages used for automation, analysis and testing.
• Familiarity with Rust or another memory-safe language.
• Understanding of modern compiler toolchains, particularly LLVM-based technologies.

In Return

You will work with technology before it becomes publicly available and solve problems at the intersection of hardware and software. You will have the opportunity to contribute to open-source projects such as Android and help develop software used across billions of devices.
