Your Team, Your Impact

The Optics team builds highly integrated component platforms with high-speed Silicon photonics, transmit and receive amplifiers, and controller ASICs with Marvell DSPs. These components are made operational with highly functional embedded firmware. The team is responsible for designing, verifying, and validating these integrated high-speed optical components. The team performs system-level testing under various operating conditions and validates the performance of the hardware, firmware, and control loops. An engineer in this team will be involved in a full product lifecycle and carry new products from inception to NPI.

What You Can Expect

In this role you will lead development of hardware platforms for integrated optical transceiver engines for high speed fiber optic communications applications. This role requires expertise in schematic entry, communications, hardware protocols, printed circuit board fabrication and design, and analog / RF signaling. This role will also use high speed test equipment such as VNA or PNA or high speed oscilloscopes. The candidate will also collaborate with operations, product engineering, test engineering, applications engineering and Business Development teams to support hardware development. This role is on-site.

• Lead the design and development of hardware including DUT cards, interposers, socket designs, and handler boards for complex semiconductor devices.
• Own schematic capture, layout reviews, stack-up optimization, and BOM management for substrates and printed circuit boards.
• Review power integrity (PI) and signal integrity (SI) simulations to ensure compliance with electrical specifications.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams across time zones to define hardware requirements and integrate new product features.
• Drive component selection, considering performance, availability, and cost.
• Develop and maintain automation scripts in Python, C++, and MATLAB to streamline validation and correlation processes.
• Interface with manufacturing teams to support DFMA and ensure smooth transition to production.
• Author technical documentation and contribute to internal publications and reports

What We're Looking For

• Master's degree in Electrical or Electronic Engineering with 3+ years of experience, or Bachelor's degree with 5+ years of relevant experience.
• Proven expertise in hardware design for semiconductor testing or power delivery systems.
• Strong background in PI/SI analysis using tools such as PowerDC, PowerSI, ADS, HFSS, and Clarity 3D.
• Experience with schematic and layout tools such as Cadence Virtuoso.
• Familiarity with communication protocols including SPI, I2C, I3C, SPMI, and UART.
• Hands-on experience with lab instruments: oscilloscopes, VNAs, signal generators, and electronic loads.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively in cross-functional, global teams.
• Demonstrated ability to publish and present technical work is a plus.

Expected Base Pay Range (USD)

134,390 - 201,300, $ per annum

The successful candidate's starting base pay will be determined based on job-related skills, experience, qualifications, work location and market conditions. The expected base pay range for this role may be modified based on market conditions.

Interview Integrity

To support fair and authentic hiring practices, candidates are not permitted to use AI tools (such as transcription apps, real-time answer generators like ChatGPT or Copilot, or automated note-taking bots) during interviews.

These tools must not be used to record, assist with, or enhance responses in any way. Our interviews are designed to evaluate your individual experience, thought process, and communication skills in real time. Use of AI tools without prior instruction from the interviewer will result in disqualification from the hiring process.

This position may require access to technology and/or software subject to U.S. export control laws and regulations, including the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). As such, applicants must be eligible to access export-controlled information as defined under applicable law. Marvell may be required to obtain export licensing approval from the U.S. Department of Commerce and/or the U.S. Department of State.
