Marvell Semiconductor Engineer Jobs: Open Roles
Marvell is where you go if you want to design the silicon that moves data around the cloud. The company is fabless and focused on data infrastructure: cloud data center, carrier networks, and enterprise networking, rather than phones or PCs.
Marvell semiconductor engineer jobs cover ASIC design, DSP development, optical networking, PCIe and CXL controllers, and 5G base station silicon. Most digital roles want high-speed design experience and comfort with data center interconnect standards: 400G and 800G Ethernet, PCIe Gen 5, and CXL. Optical DSP roles reward a real signal processing background, and the physical design and verification teams run large enough that there is depth at every experience level.
The product lines give you range. Teralynx Ethernet switch ASICs, OCTEON data processing units, Bravera PCIe and NVMe SSD controllers, Prestera switching platforms, and the custom cloud-optimized ASICs Marvell co-designs for specific hyperscalers. That spread means engineers here touch a wider set of IC design problems than they would at a company built around one product.
The custom ASIC business is the reason hiring has been aggressive. Marvell designs networking and compute silicon for AWS, Google, and Microsoft, so the chips you work on ship into some of the largest data centers running. Multi-year contract wins with those hyperscalers keep pulling in RTL, verification, and physical design engineers. If custom silicon is your target, look at related Marvell ASIC design engineer jobs and broader data center ASIC engineer roles across the industry, or start from our ASIC design jobs category.
Marvell's position in both networking and storage gives engineers some insulation when any single end market softens. For pay, data infrastructure ASIC roles in the US tend to run comparable to other fabless companies: roughly $120K to $160K base early-career, $180K to $240K for senior engineers, and higher total comp at staff level once equity and bonus are counted.

FAQ
What products does Marvell hire semiconductor engineers to work on
Marvell hires for cloud-optimized custom ASICs, optical networking DSPs, PCIe and CXL controllers, NVMe storage controllers, and 5G base station chips. The portfolio runs across data infrastructure, from the data center core out to the network edge, so roles vary widely in what part of the stack you touch.
What locations have the most Marvell semiconductor engineer jobs
Santa Clara is the global headquarters and primary engineering hub. Ottawa and Mississauga in Canada host large DSP and networking teams, and Bengaluru in India is another major design center with heavy RTL and verification staffing. SemiDesignJobs lists the location on every Marvell posting.
What makes Marvell a good place for semiconductor engineers
The custom ASIC co-design work with hyperscalers is the draw. It is a rare chance to build high-volume chips for the largest cloud providers, and engineers come away with deep expertise in both chip design and system-level architecture. The mix of networking and storage also spreads risk across end markets.
