Full Job Description

Job ID 2026-17467 Date posted Jun. 01, 2026 Location San Diego, California Category Hardware Engineering

Arm is at the forefront of advanced SoC and multi-die system design. As part of the Solutions Engineering CAD team, you will drive next-generation floor-planning, power delivery network (PG Mesh) methodologies, and technology-node-aware implementation solutions for high-performance and low-power designs.

In this role, you will work closely with architecture, RTL, IP, physical design, and package-board teams to optimize SoC and multi-die implementations across advanced technology nodes. A key focus area will be developing scalable methodologies and automation for floor-planning, PDN design, power integrity, thermal-aware implementation, and PPA optimization.

You will also collaborate with leading foundries and EDA partners to enable robust implementation strategies for future technology nodes and heterogeneous integration systems.

Responsibilities:

This is a hand-on role for delivering tool-flow-methodology and automation.
Develop and drive advanced SoC floor-planning methodologies for complex hierarchical and multi-die designs.
Define and optimize power delivery network (PDN) implementation for advanced-node implementation, including IR/EM-aware planning and power integrity optimization.
Build scalable automation and methodologies for top level floor-planning, power mesh and clocking, hierarchical subsystems, IO and IP integration, routing resource congestion analysis, and technology-node-aware implementation flows.
Drive methodology innovations for advanced technology nodes, ultra-low voltage designs, and chiplet/multi-die systems.

Required Skills and Experience :

Strong expertise in SoC design flow automation for hierarchical floor-planning, PDN design, and advanced physical implementation methodologies.
Solid programming and scripting skills, including Python, C, EDA tools, version control systems (Git), and distributed processing/debug environments.
Hands-on experience with low-power design methodologies, UPF-based design, chip finishing, and physical verification flows in advanced process technologies.
Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively across globally distributed teams.
Proven ability to lead technical initiatives and collaborate with internal engineering teams, foundries, and ecosystem partners.

“Nice To Have” Skills and Experience :

Deep understanding of advanced clocking structures, power delivery optimization, and physical verification convergence techniques.
Familiarity with AI-assisted design automation and methodology optimization flows.
