Job Description:
As an Implementation Engineer in Arm's Solutions Engineering group we like to think we are not just crafting sophisticated CPUs, GPUs and SoCs, but we are defining future chip design techniques. Not only do we improve the power, performance and system integration of our products, but we also craft the design flows, influence Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools and build the knowledge base that makes custom SoC, CPU and GPU chip design possible.
At Arm, our work goes beyond multiple divisions where we drive improved implementation for Arm and our partners. A key component of this is around the development of comprehensive implementation and analysis methodologies.
Responsibilities:
  • Synthesis, Physical design and implementation of CPU and GPU cores, system interconnect and other ARM IP, SoC
  • Analyze design timing, area and power to help improve the quality of ARM IP
  • Develop and deploy new methodologies to improve implementation efficiency and results
  • Support and develop detailed implementation analysis and data-mining methodologies.
  • Work with implementation and physical IP RTL design teams to drive analysis and optimization of our IP.
  • Converting R&D concepts into real implementation solutions.
  • Enable our partners to achieve the best possible quality of results.

Required Skills and Experience :
  • Bachelors or Master's degree equivalent in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or other relevant technical fields.
  • 7+ years of proven experience in ASIC Implementation, Physical design, STA and Timing closure, Structured clock tree, PDN analysis, DFM and Physical verification
  • The ability to demonstrate that you can express new insights and communicate them effectively. Possess a high level of dedicated, initiative and problem-solving skills.
  • Experience in crafting and adopting new silicon implementation techniques and methodologies and promote their use with international teams
  • Previous experience in and knowledge of the entire IC design flow, from RTL through to GDS2. Proven programming and scripting skills eg. Tcl, Perl, R, Make, sh.

"Nice To Have" Skills and Experience :
  • Knowledge around Arm based CPUs and SoCs!
  • Experience with low power design techniques (power gating, voltage/frequency scaling)
  • Experience with Verilog RTL design.
  • Experience with ATPG tools/and or production testing.

In Return:
We are proud to have a set of behaviors that reflect our culture and guide our decisions, defining how we work together to defy ordinary and shape outstanding!
  • Partner and customer focus
  • Teamwork and communication
  • Creativity and innovation
  • Team and personal development
  • Impact and influence
  • Deliver on your promises

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
