1d • $135,900 - $201,130

About The Position

As a Digital IC Design Senior Staff Engineer in Marvell’s Connectivity business group, you will work on communication technologies focused on data centers and AI infrastructure. The role involves developing digital IP blocks and subsystems, translating architectural specifications into RTL, and supporting implementation through timing, area, and power analysis. You will own a major sub-circuit block from architecture definition through fine tuning, contribute to design improvements, investigate model-to-hardware correlation issues, and mentor less experienced colleagues.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field and 5–10+ years of related professional experience; or a Master’s degree and/or PhD in those fields with 3+ years of experience.

Nice To Haves

• Knowledge of communication and DSP algorithms is preferred.
• Verification experience, preferably with UVM, is a big plus.

Responsibilities

• Develop RTL designs using Verilog/SystemVerilog for digital IP blocks and subsystems.
• Translate architectural specifications into clean, synthesizable RTL.
• Perform linting, CDC, and low-power design checks.
• Analyze timing, area, and power tradeoffs during design implementation.
• Support synthesis and work with physical design teams on timing closure issues.
• Debug functional issues discovered during simulation, emulation, FPGA prototyping, or silicon bring-up.
• Independently analyze and optimize small sub-circuit blocks across Process, Voltage, and Temperature.
• Serve as the responsible engineer for at least one major sub-circuit block, from architecture definition to fine tuning.
• Identify and propose innovative solutions to enhance the design of at least one major sub-circuit block.
• Participate in root cause investigation and silicon validation of model-to-hardware correlation issues.
• Mentor and coach new and/or less experienced team members.

Benefits

• Eligible to participate in bonus and equity plans, including a new hire equity grant and annual equity refreshers.
• Employee stock purchase plan with a 2-year look back.
