What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Software Engineer position at Arm?
The modelling team within Arm Central Engineering Software division enables internal and external customers to build and validate software on Arm IP-based systems for various domains (e.g., IoT, Client, Infrastructure). We are seeking an engineer to build highly efficient software models representing the functional aspects of Arm Interconnect IP , down to a micro-architectural level. These interconnect models along with other SoC models, form Arm Virtual Platforms , that provide a full-system environment that emulates hardware components alongside sophisticated software stacks (e.g., Linux, Android). Virtual platforms enable early software development for users, faster execution, and many debugging tasks such as inspecting memory bus transactions.
Responsibilities
Members of the Interconnect fast model team use hardware specifications to build functional representations in software.
