Tech firm Arm reveals plans for new site in Bristol
Semiconductor designer Arm has revealed its plans for a new site in Bristol.
The firm, whose processors power a range of consumer technology used by 70 per cent of the world's population, says it wants to capitalise on the graduate talent leaving The University of Bristol, which "is known for its hardware design and verification-related courses."
Bristol-based engineering roles cover Arm’s Cortex-A CPUs, System IP, Central Technology and Solutions Engineering.

CPU engineers will work with Arm’s HQ in Cambridge on the Cortex-A CPUs, targeting the infrastructure, automotive and consumer technology markets.
System IP engineers will be working on the delivery of Arm’s interconnect and SMMU technologies to automotive, consumer tech, infrastructure and IoT markets. This will also involve the development of echArm’s functional safety features which are vital components of automotive and IoT applications.

The Central Technology Solutions team will focus on analysing the performance and power of these Arm’s future IP designs, from early concept to deployment in silicon.
And Arm’s new Solutions Engineering team will focus on developing subsystems and test chip silicon based on Arm’s Total Compute Solutions.
Arm, which has sites in Cambridge, Manchester and Sheffield and is also opening a new site in Oslo, is holding a virtual discovery day on May 22 for engineers interested in joining the company.
