Your Team, Your Impact

Marvell's Broadband Analog group designs physical layer ICs for high-speed optical fiber data communication, such as electrical-cable analog equalizers, transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs), and drivers for Silicon Photonics (SiPho), Electro-absorption Modulators (EAMs), and Mach-Zehnder Interferometer Modulators (MZMs). This group is the market leader in delivering TIAs and Drivers for Data Center and Telecom markets. We address the bandwidth, capacity and power issues faced by cloud computing and mega data center networks. Our world class group leverages our core competencies in advanced circuit design to solve the world's ever-increasing desire to transmit more data for less power with fewer errors. We are continually first to market in Data Center, Metro and Long-Haul applications. As a member of the design group, the candidate will be responsible for design and validation of FET and BiCMOS circuits for high-speed broadband ICs that serve these applications.

What You Can Expect

Marvell is seeking an Analog/Mixed-Signal Design Engineer to contribute to the development of multi-tens of GHz optical and electrical receiver chips. In this role you will be responsible for:

  • Active-circuit design.
  • Design of high-performance broadband analog and mixed-signal circuits for electrical and optical receiver front ends.
  • Design of various other analog circuits including linear regulators, AGC loops, current/voltage sensors, bandgaps etc.
  • Work with other functional groups to facilitate post-silicon validation, qualification, transition to mass production, and customer support.

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering with 10+ years of industry experience OR Master's or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering with 7+ years of industry experience.
  • Hands-on experience in designing analog and mixed-signal circuits including CTLEs, TIAs, ADCs, DACs, PLLs, Filters, Bandgap bias circuits, regulators, and other analog circuits in either CMOS or SiGe BiCMOS technologies.
  • Proven experience in high-performance receiver design including both chip tape-out AND lab evaluation.
  • Solid experience in:
    • Using EDA CAD tools
    • Performing Analog Custom Layout
    • Experience in measuring IC performance and debug of design to correlate simulations to measurements.
  • Deep understanding of fundamentals, including:
    • Detailed transistor level design.
    • Device physics.
    • Control/Feedback loop stability analysis.
  • Direct project experience in at least one of the following areas is a plus:
    • Automatic gain-control loops.
    • High precision analog circuits including linear regulators, current sensors, bandgaps and DAC/ADC.
    • Continuous-time linear equalizers.
  • Experience in Package-System integration issues is desired.
  • A team-player.
  • Strong communication, presentation and documentation skills.
