Photonics Chip Lead

Photonic Ic Design Engineer

Marvell's semiconductor solutions are the essential building blocks of the data infrastructure that connects our world. Across enterprise, cloud and AI, 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

As Generative AI continues to advance, the performance drivers for data center infrastructure are shifting from systems-on-chip (SOCs) to systems of chips. In the era of Accelerated Computing, data center bottlenecks are no longer limited to compute performance, but rather the system's interconnect bandwidth, memory bandwidth, and memory capacity. Photonic Fabric™ is the next-generation interconnect technology that delivers a tenfold increase in performance and energy efficiency compared to competing solutions.

What You Can Expect

• Responsibility for the delivery of a Photonic IC (PIC) for one of Celestial's key product segments.
• Own all aspects related to the design of the PIC, including photonic architecture & routing, schematic capture & modeling and physical design.
• Work in conjunction with broader analog, digital and packaging teams to ensure PIC meets all product specifications and integration requirements.
• Also contribute to the design of Silicon Photonic devices and subsystems to augment the Celestial Photonics PDK.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related fields and 10-15 years of related professional experience OR Master's degree and/or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related fields with 5-10 years of experience.
• Strong experience with complete Silicon Photonics PIC development (architecture, routing, link-budget development, system integration)
• Strong experience with modeling of photonic circuits and with simulation of Silicon Photonics components using standard tools (Lumerical, Photon Design, RSoft, VPI or similar);
• Experience with physical design/layout tools (Cadence, Synopsis, Mentor or similar)
• Experience with PIC co-design with ASICs and digital control blocks
• Experience with data analysis tools (JMP, DataConductor or similar)

Expected Base Pay Range (USD)

158,600 - 237,600, $ per annum

The successful candidate's starting base pay will be determined based on job-related skills, experience, qualifications, work location and market conditions. The expected base pay range for this role may be modified based on market conditions.
