Are you passionate about technical writing? Does ground-breaking technology inspire you? Join Arm’s Information Developers and develop content for IP products that power 95% of the world’s connected devices—from healthcare to smart homes to infrastructure.


We’re looking for an expert technical author to work on content projects for innovative System-on-Chip (SoC) designs across hardware and low-level software.


This role is a one-year Fixed Term Contract.


Job Overview

Arm’s Solutions Engineering team delivers integrated hardware-software designs that help customers innovate and bring products to market faster. Our Solutions Technical Communications team makes these solutions accessible through clear, impactful documentation. As a Staff Information Developer, you will be a core member of the team and lead in the planning and generation of content for solutions projects.


Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with engineers to collect and validate complex technical details.
  • Plan and develop clear, user-centric technical documentation for SoC hardware and software.
  • Lead and/or contribute documentation for subsystem and solution releases.

Key skills & competencies

  • 5+ years experience in writing and leading complex documentation projects.
  • Ability to manage content across projects and release cycles.
  • Creative problem solver, flexible and pragmatic in approach.
  • Clear communicator in multi-disciplinary teams.
  • Eager to learn about new technologies and evolving documentation practices.

Nice to have

  • Experience documenting SoC hardware/software (e.g., firmware, BSPs, boot flows, system configuration).
  • Solid understanding of hardware design concepts (RTL/IP integration, chip bring-up, validation, FPGA prototyping).
  • Familiarity with modern documentation workflows and tools (Markdown, Git, Python, JSON/YAML, reuse and single-sourcing).
  • A good degree or postgraduate qualification in a relevant field, such as Electrical, Electronic or Computer Engineering, Computer Science or any of the sciences, English, Philosophy, Linguistics, or Law.

If you have many of these skills—and a drive to learn the rest—we encourage you to apply. We have some scope to adapt the role and job title to the right person.


In return

You’ll be part of an inclusive, supportive team that values your leadership and expertise. You’ll help shape documentation strategy for cutting-edge SoC solutions while enjoying hybrid work flexibility, competitive rewards, and opportunities to grow your influence across a global organisation.

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.

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.

How Many Data Science Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Data Science Job?

If you’re trying to break into data science — or progress your career — it can feel like you are drowning in names: Python, R, TensorFlow, PyTorch, SQL, Spark, AWS, Scikit-learn, Jupyter, Tableau, Power BI…the list just keeps going. With every job advert listing a different combination of tools, many applicants fall into a trap: they try to learn everything. The result? Long tool lists that sound impressive — but little depth to back them up. Here’s the straight-talk version most hiring managers won’t explicitly tell you: 👉 You don’t need to know every data science tool to get hired. 👉 You need to know the right ones — deeply — and know how to use them to solve real problems. Tools matter, but only in service of outcomes. So how many data science tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is not “27” — it’s more like 8–12, thoughtfully chosen and well understood. This guide explains what employers really value, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your toolbox so your CV and interviews shine.

This guide helps you understand exactly what hiring managers look for first in data science applications — and how to structure your CV, portfolio and cover letter so you leap to the top of the shortlist.
