Strategic Partnerships Lead

You will work closely with Arm engineering teams and external partners to drive day-to-day technical engagements, ensuring discussions translate into clear actions, aligned inputs, and consistent execution. The focus is practical and dedicated: helping complex, multi-team collaborations make measurable progress. This is a hands-on individual contributor role, suited to someone who enjoys working across fields, coordinating technical workstreams, and giving to impactful ecosystem outcomes in a fast-moving environment.,

• Give to ongoing technical collaborations with ecosystem partners across AI systems, platform software, security, and system architecture.
• Act as a day-to-day point of contact for specific workstreams, ensuring meetings, follow-ups, and technical discussions remain focused and productive.
• Represent Arm in partner interactions in a clear, consistent, and professional manner, advancing issues where alignment or decisions are required.
Advance Edge AI and System-Level Initiatives
• Support collaborations on Edge AI and system-level innovations, including on-device AI execution, system performance, security, and deployment across smartphones, LSC platforms, wearables, IoT devices, and emerging Physical AI systems such as robotics and autonomous vehicles.
• Work with Arm technical teams and partners to align inputs, data, and next steps for active engagements.
• Track agreed actions and ensure progress is visible and clearly communicated across partners.
Coordinate Across Teams
• Work with multiple Arm teams (AI/ML, CPU, GPU, system software, tools) to coordinate inputs required for partner engagements.
• Translate partner requirements into clear internal follow-ups, enabling efficient and consistent responses.
• Maintain awareness of engagement status, dependencies, and risks across workstreams.
Support Cross-Organization Projects and Task Forces
• Support joint technical projects and task forces by giving to planning, achievement tracking, and shared documentation.
• Drive execution by tracking actions, leading dependencies, and highlighting issues early.
• Apply structured execution practices to improve transparency, cadence, and teamwork effectiveness.
Contribute to Ecosystem Impact
• Support initiatives that drive adoption of Arm technologies across the broader ecosystem.
• Assist in preparation of materials for partner reviews, internal updates, and executive briefings.
• Supply to technical workshops, industry events, or forums as needed, working with senior partners.
