Your Team, Your Impact

The Marvell post silicon validation group designs and develops test platforms for validating multi-core Arm-based Network processors and custom ASIC’s, used in many communication infrastructure applications such as 5G base stations, hard disk drive (HDD), Fiber Channel (FC), solid‐state drive (SSD), NICs, Data Center and Cloud Computing platforms. As a member of the Post-Silicon Validation team, you will have the opportunity to contribute to several areas of product development and validation including functional, electrical, and system stress. Additional contribution opportunities include the development of SW, test plans, and utilities to enable customer platforms. The Post-Silicon Validation team develops solutions and validates a range of IO interfaces and functions on multi-core ARM processors including DDR5, Ethernet, RFOE, PCIe, USB, eMMC, and more.

What You Can Expect

• Develop and maintain bare-metal embedded test code in C/C++ to control and validate high-speed ASIC SoCs across various product lines.

• Work with custom evaluation systems in both pre-silicon emulation platforms (e.g., FPGA, Zebu) and post-silicon environments.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure that hardware components and systems meet stringent performance, reliability, and compliance standards.

• Demonstrate expertise in processor architectures, including ARM M/R/A series cores and RISC-V, with knowledge of: Exception models, MPU/MMU, CoreSight, GIC/VIC/NVIC, JTAG, PMU, SMP.

• Develop firmware to validate new SoC silicon functionality, covering high-speed interfaces like PCIe, DDR and low-speed interfaces such as I2C, I2S, USB, SMBus, and SPI. Responsibilities include building test tools and scripting frameworks as needed.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, with 5–10 years of relevant professional experience.

• Master’s Degree and/or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, with 3–5 years of relevant professional experience.

• Experience in Firmware Development under Bare Metal/Linux Environment and Debugging on SoCs for embedded Applications.

• Proficient in C/C++, assembly, 64-bit ARM CPU architecture.

• Experience with silicon bring-up and pre/post silicon validation.

• Excellent troubleshooting skills to resolve silicon issues and provide technical/debug support to internal or external customers.

• Must have hands on experience with lab test equipment (Oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power analyzers etc.) and standard lab operating procedures.

• Proven ability to debug hardware and board-level issues. Skilled in testing methodologies, including capturing and analyzing protocol traces, oscilloscope data, and signal waveforms.

• Deep knowledge and expertise in common SoC embedded core components for power supply, clock distribution, control logic functions, and familiar basic communication protocols, such as PCIe, DDR, USB, I2C ,SPI GPIO, SPI, I2C, I2S, SMBus.
