Job overview: Arm technology drives everything from ultra-low-power IoT sensors to hyperscale cloud servers. In the Developer Platforms group, we strive to create outstanding developer experiences by providing intuitive tools, native to the environments developers prefer, which enable them to unlock the full potential of our architecture.

We are looking for software engineers who are passionate about empowering developers delivering machine learning experiences on Arm. Our team looks holistically at developer challenges, delivering tools that support model selection, training, profiling, deployment, hardware configuration, and visualisation. This is a unique opportunity to join a team collaborating across diverse technologies, transforming complex developer problems into intuitive solutions.

Responsibilities:
  • Collaborate within a diverse team to design, deliver and refine the tools and experiences required to support development on Arm processors.
  • Work alongside peers and junior team members to solve technical problems, mentoring as necessary.
  • Form effective relationships with other engineers, product managers and UX specialists to deeply understand and empower users.
  • Engage with our agile planning and development processes to help shape delivery of our products.
  • Ensure quality through unit testing and continuous integration.
Required skills and experience:
  • Programming Proficiency: Demonstrable expertise in at least one programming language, capable of writing well-structured, readable code with robust error handling, adaptable to changing requirements.
  • Software Engineering Fundamentals: Proficiency in version control, automated testing, CI/CD, and Agile methodologies.
  • Results-Driven: A desire to push forward the state of the art in developer tooling by embracing new technologies and continuous innovation.
  • Developer-Centric Mindset: You care about making developers’ lives easier, with sensitivity to both the delightful and frustrating aspects of software development.
“Nice to have” skills and experience:
  • Experience shipping real products to customers.
  • ML Design and Deployment: Familiarity with designing, training, optimizing, and deploying machine learning models using frameworks like PyTorch, JAX, LiteRT, HuggingFace Transformers, or commercial APIs.
  • Containerisation: Experience with cloud deployments and containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes, containerd).
  • Linux: Embedded Linux and kernel development.
  • Programming Languages: We adopt a flexible tooling approach, but recent projects have involved TypeScript, Python, Rust, and Go.

In return, you will join an established and experienced team working with innovative technologies in an agile environment which requires proactivity, dynamic approaches to problem solving and creative thinking. You will work on greenfield software products which ship with new Arm hardware on day one.

Arm is an equal opportunity employer, committed to providing an environment of mutual respect where equal opportunities are available to all applicants and colleagues. We are a diverse organization of dedicated and innovative individuals, and don’t discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or status as a protected veteran.

At Arm, we want to build extraordinary teams. If you need an adjustment or an accommodation during the recruitment process, please email. To note, by sending us the requested information, you consent to its use by Arm to arrange for appropriate accommodations. All accommodation or adjustment requests will be treated with confidentiality, and information concerning these requests will only be disclosed as necessary to provide the accommodation.

How Many AI Tools Do You Need to Know to Get an AI Job?

If you are job hunting in AI right now it can feel like you are drowning in tools. Every week there is a new framework, a new “must-learn” platform or a new productivity app that everyone on LinkedIn seems to be using. The result is predictable: job seekers panic-learn a long list of tools without actually getting better at delivering outcomes. Here is the truth most hiring managers will quietly agree with. They do not hire you because you know 27 tools. They hire you because you can solve a problem, communicate trade-offs, ship something reliable and improve it with feedback. Tools matter, but only in service of outcomes. So how many AI tools do you actually need to know? For most AI job seekers: fewer than you think. You need a tight core toolkit plus a role-specific layer. Everything else is optional. This guide breaks it down clearly, gives you a simple framework to choose what to learn and shows you how to present your toolset on your CV, portfolio and interviews.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in AI Job Applications (UK Guide)

Hiring managers do not start by reading your CV line-by-line. They scan for signals. In AI roles especially, they are looking for proof that you can ship, learn fast, communicate clearly & work safely with data and systems. The best applications make those signals obvious in the first 10–20 seconds. This guide breaks down what hiring managers typically look for first in AI applications in the UK market, how to present it on your CV, LinkedIn & portfolio, and the most common reasons strong candidates get overlooked. Use it as a checklist to tighten your application before you click apply.

The Skills Gap in AI Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Artificial intelligence is no longer a future concept. It is already reshaping how businesses operate, how decisions are made, and how entire industries compete. From finance and healthcare to retail, manufacturing, defence, and climate science, AI is embedded in critical systems across the UK economy. Yet despite unprecedented demand for AI talent, employers continue to report severe recruitment challenges. Vacancies remain open for months. Salaries rise year on year. Candidates with impressive academic credentials often fail technical interviews. At the heart of this disconnect lies a growing and uncomfortable truth: Universities are not fully preparing graduates for real-world AI jobs. This article explores the AI skills gap in depth—what is missing from many university programmes, why the gap persists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build a successful career in artificial intelligence.
