Hardware Board Design Senior Staff Engineer

Job Title

Hardware Board Design Senior Staff Engineer

Role Summary

Lead board and package design for Marvell switch products within the SIE group, delivering solutions that meet signal/power integrity, performance, and cost targets. Collaborate with hardware, system, and test engineers, and coordinate with ODM partners through architecture, layout, tape-out, and post-manufacturing bring-up.

Eligible to participate in Marvell's bonus and equity plans.

Experience Level

Senior - 10+ years of related experience.

Responsibilities

Accountable for end-to-end board design and delivery for complex, high-density switch platforms.

• Drive product definition and system design for evaluation and test with hardware, systems, and electrical test teams.
• Architect board and package solutions addressing SI/PI, power, thermal, and mechanical constraints.
• Select components, produce schematics, manage board layout, and lead board bring-up and validation.
• Lead post-silicon board bring-up and coordinate design changes with device teams.
• Manage relationships with ODM partners and guide their implementation of the design.
• Provide system-level inputs for device definitions and interface across functional groups to meet requirements.
• Lead and mentor small design teams to meet deliverables and schedules.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills, practical experience, and constraints for the role.

• Proven experience leading small teams of design engineers to complete board design deliverables.
• 5+ years working with ODMs on board development and production.
• 5+ years designing high-density boards with fine-pitch components and dense interconnects.
• Expertise in high-speed interfaces and SERDES (DDR4, PCIe Gen3/Gen4/Gen5, 10G–200G Ethernet) and related SI/PI practices.
• Good knowledge of power supply design and hands-on lab measurement experience for signal and power integrity.
• Familiarity with Cadence Allegro schematics and layout tools.
• Understanding of mechanical and thermal considerations in board design.
• Must be eligible to access export-controlled technology; non-U.S. citizens may be subject to export license review prior to employment.

Nice-to-have:

• Experience with medium- to high-end CPUs on platform designs.
• Extensive experience with PCIe Gen5 or other very high speed interfaces beyond listed minima.

Education Requirements

Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering is required; the posting specifies a BS in Electrical Engineering plus 10+ years of related experience.
