Your Team Your Impact
The Marvell post silicon validation group designs and develops test platforms for validating enterprise cloud AI storage and carrier architectures including multi-core Arm-based Network processors. The electrical characterization team is a post silicon validation sub-group focused on the debug and characterization of SerDes and DDR interfaces on the processor. The SerDes interface use NRZ and PAM4 signaling for Ethernet CPRI JESD and PCIe interfaces. DRAM interfaces include LPDDR5 DDR4/5 memory modules.Characterization engineers are responsible for developing test platforms used and automated test suites to characterize the analog interfaces over process voltage and temperature (PVT) extremes to determine silicon viability for volume production.
What You Can Expect
Own the electrical characterization/compliance of SERDES IP for PCIe Networking (Ethernet) and DDR. Develop and implement test plans for SERDES and DDR characterization.
Develop methods for automated electrical characterization (validation) of the interfaces. Develop standard test methods and regression tests for the validation of the IPs.
Lead and manage the SERDES validation and applications engineering teams for the BU. Provide applications engineering support to major customers.
Plan equipment (CAPEX) and resource needs for supporting the BU products.
Responsible for leading and building a strong team of talented engineers for SERDES device validation and SERDES IP characterization.
Responsible for the development and implementation of the characterization and support strategy for the SERDES IP included in almost all products of the Business Group
