Marvell solutions are shipping into top major hyperscale and telecom networks worldwide, providing unmatched leadership in the design, test, and volume manufacturing of high-performance coherent DSPs. What You Can Expect As a Hardware Design Engineer, you will be: Responsible for high-performance hardware/system design of all-optical 400G/800G per lambda coherent DSP reference designs and evaluation platforms including power, control, clocking, high-speed I/O, and form factor. Architect, simulate and test the industry's best signal integrity with bandwidths exceeding 110GHz. Design and simulate for power integrity critical high power coherent DSPs Collaborate with system, analog, digital, firmware, DFT, FA, validation, applications, etc. teams to define evaluation platform requirements. Work with fellow hardware engineer(s) and firmware team for initial board bring-up. Perform FA on boards and identify necessary repairs. Develop and execute individual board validation plans and generate detailed validation reports. Work with external PCB fabrication and assembly houses to ensure manufacturable designs and timely delivery of boards.

Requirements

Bachelor’s Degree in Electronic Engineering with at least 5 years of experience in high-speed board-level hardware design.
Experience in power, analog, clocking, FPGA, µProcessor, µController, memory, ethernet, SERDES, or similar disciplines.
Experience in schematic design and library management using OrCAD CIS/CIP, Altium, or equivalent.
Experience in high-frequency signal integrity simulations using Ansys HFSS, Siwave, and ADS or equivalent and measurements using VNA and TDR scopes.
Experience in analog and power design using PSPICE or equivalent.
Experience working with board manufacturers and layout engineers to define placement, stack-up, design rules, etc.
Experience in bring-up, test, characterization, and failure analysis (FA) of new boards using multi-meters (DMM), oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, etc.
