Marvell’s semiconductor solutions are the essential building blocks of the data infrastructure that connects our world. Across enterprise, cloud and AI, automotive, and carrier architectures, our innovative technology is enabling new possibilities. 

At Marvell, you can affect the arc of individual lives, lift the trajectory of entire industries, and fuel the transformative potential of tomorrow. For those looking to make their mark on purposeful and enduring innovation, above and beyond fleeting trends, Marvell is a place to thrive, learn, and lead. 

Your Team, Your Impact

We are seeking an experienced Engineering Program Manager to lead end‑to‑end execution of customer‑driven custom solutions in Marvell’s Cloud Data Center Group. You will own complex, multi‑disciplinary programs from initiation and planning through development, validation, qualification, sample delivery, and production release, partnering closely with hyperscale cloud data center customers and cross‑functional engineering, operations, and business teams. This is a high‑impact role at the center of leading‑edge semiconductor and system technologies, where disciplined execution, crisp communication, and proactive risk management are essential.

What You Can Expect

What You’ll Do

  • Lead custom solution programs for hyperscale cloud data center customers, serving as the single threaded owner from concept through production release.
  • Own the complete program lifecycle—charter and scope, POR definition, schedules, interlocks, and closure with lessons learned and sustaining handoff.
  • Drive execution across development, validation, qualification, sample delivery, and production release phases with clear entry/exit criteria and phase‑gate governance.
  • Monitor and control performance against the Plan of Record (POR)—maintaining alignment to schedule, quality, and cost targets; manage deltas and formal change control.
  • Coordinate a matrixed organization to resolve dependencies and accelerate outcomes.
  • Act as the primary point of contact for internal and external communications at engineering, management, and executive levels; prepare and present crisp status, risks, and decisions.
  • Identify, quantify, and mitigate risks early; maintain risk registers and response plans; drive issue resolution and data‑driven decision making.
  • Represent the customer voice—translating requirements into clear technical objectives and aligning stakeholders on trade‑offs that balance customer needs with Marvell strategy.
  • Drive supplier and partner execution in collaboration with sourcing and operations; ensure material readiness, test readiness, and manufacturing ramp plans are on track.
  • Continuously improve processes, tooling, and dashboards for predictable delivery and transparency
