You will build strong relationships with Arm's Linux development team and CPU Architecture team as well as with OS verification engineers at multiple sites globally.
If you are a linux maintainer or developer with a desire to learn more about the hardware/software interface, we would like to hear from you.
This is a phenomenal opportunity to exploit your software skills, while deepening your understanding of the internals of modern CPUs in an exceptionally accomplished, diverse and friendly team!

* CPU verification or EDA tools.
In Return
You will join a smart and passionate group of engineers who are driven by technical excellence and the opportunity to continue to learn throughout their careers - but who are also very friendly and approachable. Your work will directly lead to real products in the mobile, HPC and IoT spaces, giving you a real sense of accomplishment as well as substantial rewards.
