At Marvell, you can affect the arc of individual lives, lift the trajectory of entire industries, and fuel the transformative potential of tomorrow.

Your Team, Your Impact

Marvell is seeking a highly skilled, experienced, and accomplished Director of Enterprise Security Architecture (ESA) to lead the development and evolution of Marvell’s enterprise security strategy. This role is responsible not only for providing advisory services and ensuring the integration of security services, but for communicating risk clearly, building strong partnerships, and influencing direction across a complex, matrixed enterprise.

As the operational leader for ESA, this role serves as a primary integration point between technology teams, operations, solution engineering, and business stakeholders. Success in this role depends on the ability to translate technical and operational risk into business impact, align diverse stakeholders, and drive decisive action through influence rather than direct authority. The ESA organization plays a critical role in ensuring the security posture of Marvell’s enterprise technology, offering an opportunity to work in a dynamic company with cutting-edge technologies in a global, collaborative environment.
