At Marvell, you can affect the arc of individual lives, lift the trajectory of entire industries, and fuel the transformative potential of tomorrow. For those looking to make their mark on purposeful and enduring innovation, above and beyond fleeting trends, Marvell is a place to thrive, learn, and lead.

Your Team, Your Impact

As a Senior Staff Digital ASIC Design Engineer at Marvell, you will join the DCE - Connectivity Business Group, the team developing the high performance connectivity silicon that underpins AI scale data centers for the world's leading hyperscalers. Our group architects and implements advanced digital pipelines, high speed datapaths, and DSP driven processing engines that enable ultra high bandwidth, low latency data movement across next generation Ethernet and optical interconnects. You'll work closely with experts in architecture, verification, physical design, and systems to deliver complex ASICs that integrate cutting edge DSP algorithms, robust protocol handling, and PHY level innovations. This role offers the opportunity to shape foundational connectivity technologies, drive technical direction, and contribute to silicon solutions powering the global AI infrastructure.

What You Can Expect

Collaborate with systems and architecture teams to define SoClevel specifications, including performance, power, area, feature requirements, and DSP/datapath architectural considerations.

Translate highlevel product and protocol requirements into detailed microarchitecture specifications for complex subsystems, highspeed datapaths, DSP pipelines, and IP blocks.

Own RTL development for assigned blocks, delivering highquality, synthesizable SystemVerilog RTL that meets functionality, performance, and power targets.

Implement and drive the full ASIC frontend design flow, including lint, CDC/RDC, synthesis, timing constraint development, and designfortest readiness.

Partner with STA and PNR teams to support timing closure, floorplanning, congestion analysis, and design optimizations across advanced process nodes.

Lead integration of digital logic into larger subsystems and toplevel assemblies, ensuring clean interfaces, modularity, and reusability.

Develop scalable and maintainable design components, including parameterized datapaths, DSP building blocks, and reusable infrastructure logic.

Work closely with DV teams to define verification strategies, review test plans, and ensure functional, coveragedriven, and poweraware validation of the design.

Support presilicon validation, including emulation, FPGA prototyping, and performance modeling of highspeed datapaths and DSP algorithms.

Drive postsilicon bringup and debug, collaborating with lab and systems teams to validate functionality, characterize performance, and resolve complex issues across datapath, DSP, and protocol layers.

Participate in detailed design and microarchitecture reviews, contributing to continuous improvement of design, verification, and methodology flows.

What We're Looking For

• Extensive experience in digital ASIC design, including microarchitecture development, RTL implementation (SystemVerilog preferred), and integration of complex logic blocks.
• 10+ years of industry experience working on largescale ASICs for networking, datacenter connectivity, or highbandwidth compute architectures.
• Strong background in highperformance DSP and highspeed datapath design, including pipelined arithmetic units, algorithmdriven hardware implementation, packet processing engines, memory subsystems, and largescale control/state machines.
• Familiarity with Ethernet protocols and networking standards, including MAC, PCS framing, flow control, and packetlevel behaviors.
• Proficiency with frontend design flows, including lint, CDC/RDC, synthesis, STA, and power/performance optimization.
• Demonstrated ability to collaborate across architecture, verification, physical design, firmware, and systems teams, driving designs from concept through tapeout.
• Strong debug skills across RTL simulation, emulation, FPGA prototypes, and silicon bringup.
• Familiarity with advanced process nodes (5nm, 3nm, or similar) and their implications for timing, power, and signal integrity.
• Excellent communication and leadership skills, with experience mentoring junior engineers and influencing technical direction.
• BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field; PhD is a plus.

Preferred / Plus Skills

• Advanced highspeed DSP algorithm implementation, including adaptive equalization (FFE, DFE, CTLE), channel estimation, and highthroughput filtering architectures.
• Experience with FEC architectures such as LDPC, RS, BCH, or other highspeed coding/decoding schemes used in networking and optical interconnects.
• Previous PHY design experience, including PMAlevel DSP pipelines, equalization blocks, clock recovery, and SerDesadjacent logic.
