Ready to put ideas from university to work on real hardware challenges? At Arm in Lund, we develop neural accelerators for machine learning applications ranging from mobile devices and smart homes to autonomous vehicles.
We offer master’s thesis projects where students work alongside engineers, build prototypes and test new approaches to hardware verification. Bring curiosity, try out fresh ideas and help us improve the way we verify hardware!
Master’s Thesis Projects:
Here are our current hardware verification projects:
- LLM Assisted Coverage Closure in Hardware Verification – Develop and evaluate a workflow using an AI coding agent for functional and code coverage closure in industrial UVM testbenches, assessing verification quality, engineering effort and LLM token usage.
- Graph-Based Analysis of Hardware Verification Stimuli – Investigate how structural patterns and relationships in directed attributed graphs can reveal insights into verification coverage, anomalies, and diversity.
Applications for alternative thesis projects are also welcome and should include a detailed proposal outlining the suggested work.
We are looking for individuals who:
Applicants must be currently enrolled and studying towards a master’s degree, with affiliation to a Swedish university or college, including through an exchange programme.

Qualities that will help your application stand out:
- Keen to learn new things and try different ways to solve problems.
- Enjoy working with others and sharing ideas.
- Pay attention to detail while keeping the bigger picture in mind.
Additional Information:
Applications should specify the project of interest and include an English CV and university transcript (grade sheet). Students applying as a pair should submit one joint application containing both applicants’ English CVs and university transcripts.
Please note we are unable to provide visa sponsorship for this role. Applicants must have the right to work in the country where the role is based, without relying on sponsorship by Arm, for the full duration of the master's thesis project.
In Return:
We’ll support our thesis students with regular feedback and opportunities to develop practical skills and learn from engineers working on machine learning hardware. Social activities also offer a chance to get to know the team and experience life at Arm!
A one-time payment of SEK 60,000 is provided upon project completion. #getreadytogrow

Use of AI in Your Application
At Arm, we embrace the benefits AI can bring, including in recruitment. You may use AI to support your preparation, such as improving the clarity of written responses, practicing interview questions, or learning more about our industry. However, your application and interview responses must reflect your own thinking, experience, and abilities. We want to understand your authentic perspective, creativity, and approach to problem solving. As such, you may not use AI to complete assigned tasks as part of any assessments. If you plan to use AI-supported or assistive technologies as part of a reasonable adjustment, please contact accommodations@arm.com so we can support you.
Recruitment Adjustments and Accommodations
At Arm, we want to build extraordinary teams. If you need an adjustment or an accommodation during the recruitment process, please email accommodations@arm.com. To note, by sending us the requested information, you consent to its use by Arm to arrange for appropriate accommodations. All accommodation or adjustment requests will be treated with confidentiality, and information concerning these requests will only be disclosed as necessary to provide the accommodation. Although this is not an exhaustive list, examples of support include breaks between interviews, having documents read aloud, or office accessibility. Please email us about anything we can do to accommodate you during the recruitment process.
Hybrid Working
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.

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.
