Arm is transforming how semiconductor products are composed, verified, tested, qualified, manufactured, and delivered. Our company is seeking a Fellow – AI Systems Architect for Product Operations to define the next generation of engineering and business operations. You will lead these operations, guided by artificial intelligence across the semiconductor lifecycle.
This highly transparent technical leadership role will develop and implement large-scale autonomous AI systems spanning pre-silicon build, verification, Product & Test Engineering (PETE), Quality, Reliability, Product Operations, and Supply Chain Management. The successful candidate will drive the development of autonomous engineering workflows that accelerate product development, improve quality, increase operational efficiency, and gain institutional knowledge at scale.
The ideal candidate combines deep semiconductor expertise with hands-on experience building and deploying production grade Multi Agentic AI systems capable of transforming complex engineering workflows.
Responsibilities
Define and execute ARM’s long-term vision and strategy for Agentic AI across engineering and product operations.
Architect and deploy enterprise-scale Multi Agentic AI platforms applying LLMs, SLMs, RAG, Knowledge Graphs, MCP frameworks, and modern agent orchestration technologies.
Drive AI-enabled transformation across the complete semiconductor lifecycle, including:
Architecture & Design
Functional Verification & Emulation
DFT & Test Content Development
Product & Test Engineering
ATE Program Development
Yield Learning & Diagnosis
Reliability & Quality Engineering
Failure Analysis
Product Operations
Supply Chain Management
Identify and prioritize high-impact AI automation opportunities that deliver measurable improvements in productivity, quality, cycle time, and operational efficiency.
Establish enterprise AI governance, security, deployment, and adoption guidelines.
Collaborate across engineering, operations, IT, and executive leadership teams to drive company-wide AI initiatives.
Mentor engineers and technical leaders while fostering a culture of innovation and AI excellence.
Represent ARM externally through industry conferences, publications, patents, and strategic partnerships.
Required Skills And Experience
Master's or Ph.D. in fields such as Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, or a related technical area.
Minimum 20 years of semiconductor proven experience.
Hands-on experience developing and deploying Multi-Agent AI systems in production environments.
Proven technical leadership across multiple areas including:
Semiconductor Design & Verification
Design-for-Test (DFT)
Silicon Validation
Product & Test Engineering
Yield Engineering
Quality & Reliability Engineering
Failure Analysis
Manufacturing & New Product Introduction (NPI)
Strong expertise in:
Agentic AI Architectures
Generative AI
Large Language Models (LLMs)
Small Language Models (SLMs)
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
Knowledge Graphs
Machine Learning & Deep Learning
AI Workflow Orchestration Frameworks
Experience building enterprise automation platforms and integrating with engineering, manufacturing, and business systems.
Outstanding communication, technical leadership, and collaborator management skills.
Preferred Qualifications
Ph.D. in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, or related field, or an equivalent level of experience.
Three or more sophisticated AI/ML certifications in areas such as:
Agentic AI
Generative AI
Machine Learning
Deep Learning
RAG Systems
Knowledge Graphs
AI Engineering
Experience building AI-enabled automation solutions for semiconductor design, verification, DFT, product engineering, quality, or manufacturing workflows.
Experience with LangGraph, LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, MCP, or similar multi-agent frameworks.
Experience integrating AI systems with EDA tools and engineering data ecosystems.
Experience in one or more pre-silicon fields including RTL Build, Functional Verification, Emulation, FPGA Prototyping, Physical Compose, Timing Closure, Low-Power Develop, or SoC Integration.
Publications, patents, or invention disclosures in AI, coordinated circuit development, validation, test, quality, reliability, or manufacturing.
Demonstrated success leading enterprise-wide technology transformation initiatives.
Experience deploying secure on-premise AI platforms for engineering applications.
Salary Range
$308,600-$417,500 per year
We value people as individuals and our dedication is to reward people competitively and equitably for the work they do and the skills and experience they bring to Arm. Salary is only one component of Arm's offering. The total reward package will be shared with candidates during the recruitment and selection process.
Accommodations at Arm
At Arm, we want to build extraordinary teams. If you need an adjustment or an accommodation during the recruitment process, please email
Hybrid Working at Arm
Arm’s approach to hybrid working is designed to create a working environment that supports both high performance and personal wellbeing. We believe in bringing people together face to face to enable us to work at pace, whilst recognizing the value of flexibility. Within that framework, we empower groups/teams to determine their own hybrid working patterns, depending on the work and the team’s needs. Details of what this means for each role will be shared upon application. In some cases, the flexibility we can offer is limited by local legal, regulatory, tax, or other considerations, and where this is the case, we will collaborate with you to find the best solution. Please talk to us to find out more about what this could look like for you.
Equal Opportunities at Arm
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.
