Job Overview
Join the Chip Methodology & Automation (CMA) team within Arm's Solutions Engineering organization. As a FrontEnd CMA Engineer, you will define, develop, and deploy scalable methodologies, flows, and automation that enable efficient development of Arm-based SoCs.
The engineer will operate where front-end chip composition meets software engineering, partnering with groups responsible for developing, verification, implementation, architecture, and product engineering. You will help improve RTL quality, build integration, release readiness, and development efficiency by turning sophisticated build requirements into reusable, production-ready solutions.
This role provides an opportunity to influence methodologies used across multiple Arm projects and to improve how increasingly sophisticated SoCs are built, validated, and delivered.
Responsibilities
-
Own and improve front-end build methodologies and CAD flows from RTL development through implementation handoff.
- Develop scalable solutions for RTL quality, verification, build/IP management, and flow
- Build production-quality automation and infrastructure that improves engineering efficiency, consistency, and build quality.
- Collaborate with build teams and EDA vendors to identify bottlenecks, resolve complex issues, and lead improvements in methodology.
- Evaluate and deploy emerging EDA, automation, and AI technologies with measurable engineering impact.
- Provide technical leadership and guide methodology strategy, adoption, and guidelines across teams and projects.
Vital Skills and Experience
- Experience in ASIC/SoC build, Front-End CAD, build methodology, EDA automation, or related areas.
- Strong understanding of digital build and the RTL-to-implementation lifecycle, including Verilog/SystemVerilog and front-end design flows.
- Hands-on experience with RTL quality and verification methodologies such as Lint, CDC/RDC, low-power, formal/equivalence, and synthesis.
- Strong Python proficiency along with knowledge of Tcl, Shell, Linux, source control, and regression/CI infrastructure.
- Experience building scalable, production-quality CAD flows and automation used across projects.
- AI-first approach, with experience applying AI/LLMs to automation, debug, analysis, and engineering efficiency.
- Rapid, iterative approach to development—prototype, deploy, measure, and improve solutions based on real-world use.
- Strong debugging and problem-solving skills across building, methodology, infrastructure, and EDA tools.
- Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to drive solutions from requirements through deployment and adoption across teams.
Preferred Skills and Background
- Experience with industry-standard EDA tools from Synopsys, Cadence, Siemens EDA, or similar vendors.
- Familiarity with UPF, SDC, low-power build, and advanced SoC integration.
- Experience with building/IP qualification, configuration, and release management.
- Experience building regression, analytics, or data infrastructure for semiconductor build flows.
- Familiarity with advanced-node, hierarchical, or multi-die SoC development.
- Experience collaborating across global teams and driving methodology adoption across projects.
Education
BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent proven experience.
