About Marvell

Marvell's semiconductor solutions are the essential building blocks of the data infrastructure that connects our world. Across enterprise, cloud and AI, and carrier architectures, our innovative technology is enabling new possibilities.

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

Join Marvell's Custom Compute Solutions Business Unit (CCSBU) as we establish our design presence in San Diego's thriving semiconductor ecosystem.
This team will be responsible for delivering highquality customer silicon for advanced AI, XPU, and XPUAttach programs. By partnering closely with customers and internal stakeholders, the design center will enable Marvell's most strategic and financially significant custom SoC initiatives, delivering differentiated solutions that reinforce Marvell's position as a trusted partner for nextgeneration compute platforms.
This is a rare technical leadership opportunity - you'll help shape design strategy from the ground up and build a world-class team as part of our strategic expansion into Southern California. You're not joining an established local team - you're building one. You'll define the culture, establish the methodology, and shape the technical DNA of Marvell's San Diego design organization.

What You Can Expect

• Shape the micro-architecture of the chip

• Write specifications and define micro-architecture of the design

• Implement designs using low-power RTL coding techniques

• Collaborate with the verification team on the verification test plan, coverage analysis, and full-chip simulation plus debug

• Write SVA assertions for dynamic simulation and apply them in formal verification

• Prepare and present design reviews

• Work with the physical design team in aiding the implementation of the functional blocks

• Interact with the project manager to scope and assign tasks

• Provide reasonable and accurate schedule estimates and follow through to meet them in spite of surprises

• Proactively communicate challenges and provide contingency plan recommendations to management

• Work with multiple design centers and design groups to shape future methodology

• Support the post silicon team to bring up silicon in the lab

• Work with the software team to ensure product meets customer use cases

• Provide expert product support in post-silicon debug environments
