Your Team, Your Impact

High-speed interconnects - from switch and NIC silicon to optical transceivers and active electrical cables - are what let modern spine-leaf data centers and AI/ML fabrics move data at 800G, 1.6T, and beyond without a hitch. As a member of the Network Validation / Interoperability Testing team, you'll recreate real-world deployment scenarios in the lab and drive failure modes to resolution with design and firmware teams. You will ensure next-generation, ultra-high-speed networking gear from multiple vendors interoperates correctly - spanning everything from PHY-layer signal integrity up through routing protocols - leveraging LLMs and AI agent workflows to do it faster and more efficiently.

What You Can Expect

• Design, develop, and execute interoperability test plans for Marvell networking products across a wide range of multi-vendor platforms and customer environments, validating device compatibility against industry-standard switches, NICs, cables, and transceivers through automated test frameworks built for coverage, repeatability, and time-to-data.
• Analyze test results, identify failure modes, and work cross-functionally with design and firmware teams to drive root cause resolution.
• Validate PHY-layer behavior including SerDes link bring-up, PAM4/NRZ signal integrity, FEC performance, and low-level protocol compliance across I2C, SPI, and SMI interfaces.
• Leverage AI frameworks and LLMs to accelerate data analysis, anomaly detection, and test automation.
• Document test methodologies, results, and findings in a clear and structured manner for internal and external stakeholders.
• Engage directly with customers and partners to understand interoperability requirements and ensure test coverage reflects real-world deployment scenarios.
• Continuously evaluate and improve test infrastructure to keep pace with next-generation networking technologies.
• Automation system development using AI agents design tests, improve test efficiency, improve time to data and data analysis.

What We're Looking For

• MS/PhD (preferred) in CE/EE or related technical field(s) with 1-3+ years of previous experience
• Experience in designing and executing interoperability test plans across multi-vendor networking environments using automated test frameworks, with proficiency in scripting and network CLI commands across switch and NIC platforms
• Knowledgeable in analyzing large volumes of test data in real time, isolating failure modes, and driving root cause resolution cross-functionally with design and firmware teams
• Knowledgeable in PHY-layer validation including SerDes link bring-up, PAM4/NRZ signal integrity, FEC performance, and low-level protocol compliance across I2C, SPI, and SMI interfaces
• Knowledgeable in leveraging LLMs and AI frameworks to accelerate data analysis, anomaly detection, and test automation through AI agent workflows
• Knowledgeable in networking protocols (Ethernet, IP, BGP, OSPF), data center topologies (spine-leaf, fat-tree), OSI model layers, and data communication protocols to produce clear, structured documentation of test methodologies, results, and findings for internal and external stakeholders
• Knowledgeable in translating real-world data center deployment scenarios into interoperability test coverage through direct customer and partner engagement, with understanding of multi-vendor switch and NIC ecosystems
• Knowledgeable in high-speed interconnect standards (800G, 1.6T), data center switching architectures, transceiver and cable specifications, and next-generation networking technologies to continuously evaluate and improve test infrastructure
