Your Team, Your Impact

By delivering a stream of technical innovations through a diverse set of fast‐growing product lines, Marvell technology is powering the next‐generation network.

The Marvell Cloud Platform team is seeking an engineering leader to drive the next generation of hardware systems innovations. You will play a key role in defining, implementing, and leading teams to deliver reference designs and full turnkey hardware including low-power electrical and optical interconnect modules and subassemblies, high density ASIC systems hardware, and co-packaged optics full system solutions.

For Cloud networks, a leadership product line requires a “deployment-first” view of the customer end-market application. This starts with an understanding of the network level deployment and how connectivity solutions are architected for optimal manufacturing cost, performance, power, and reliability, with an appreciation for the development constraints customers face in delivering solutions at full deployment scale.

What You Can Expect

Working in partnership with system manufacturing partners including ODMs, ODMs, and OSATs, Marvell’s operations and quality teams, and a wide set of cross functional business units, you will envision, communicate, and build a vision for a hardware team which delivers cutting edge next generation solutions which will influence the evolution of the industry for cloud optimized infrastructure. You will lead an engineering team of high speed printed circuit board design specialists, optical systems design and manufacturing experts, and professionals focused on signal integrity modeling, simulation, and characterization. The team is focused on delivering both products and reference design hardware which is aligned with Marvell’s cutting edge communications infrastructure chipsets and silicon photonics devices. Operating in one of the most intense and high-paced markets in high-tech, this leader must move quickly to embrace new solutions and manage the team to tight schedules while maintaining high quality and robust designs.

This role requires exceptionally broad technical expertise and excellent communication skills necessary to lead a cross-functional team of experts and to influence diverse ecosystem partners. A spirit of teamwork and collaboration and an open mind for new solutions is essential to develop complex new solutions with multiple business units and a wide set of market-leading customers. The leader is required to drive long term staffing plans, project schedules, and organizational budgets anticipating customer needs based on market trends.

• In cooperation with business unit teams and manufacturing partners, research and comprehend a long-term vision for next generation system hardware approaches, define and initiate programs to develop test vehicles as needed.

• Lead and actively manage designs for reference hardware supporting product teams.

• Define and lead methodologies and program plans for hardware system characterization.

• Plan and lead documentation of design guidelines for customers and manufacturing partners.

• Work directly with customers to service urgent support requests and to understand long term requirements for the product hardware offering.

• Working in partnership with company stakeholders, define and implement a long-term growth and development plan for the team, anticipating near-term and long-term market requirements and the required skillsets necessary for product competitiveness and to meet market needs.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering or Systems Engineering

• Minimum 15 years work experience in hardware development for networking or routing applications, or for optical communications products and subassemblies

• Minimum 10 years management experience leading system engineering teams.

• Deeply skilled in high-speed systems design integrating interconnect exceeding 100Gbps (across PCB, copper, or optical channels) and dense high-performance memory.

• Demonstrated expertise in designing and evaluating modern system approaches for high-speed interconnect, powe
