About Marvell

Marvells 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

The Solutions Architecture team sits within Marvells Platform organization which turns advanced silicon into deployable customer-ready AI and cloud infrastructure. This team the AI Solutions Lab owns the validation layer that proves our platforms perform as promised across compute networking and memory fabrics. Without it Marvell could design great silicon but could never prove at rack scale that it performs the way customers expect and hyperscalers dont buy chips on paper they buy validated systems.

Day to day the team runs AI benchmarking experiments that mirror real customer workloads operates GPU/HPC lab clusters validates Marvells Teralynx switching and AI fabrics under production-like conditions and builds live demos for trade shows carrying platform programs from concept to production.

What sets this team apart is breadth of ownership: engineers here arent limited to validating a single switch chip they work across the full breadth of Marvells AI platform portfolio from Teralynx network fabrics to integrated optical platforms like co-packaged optics (CPO) and near-packaged optics (NPO) as well as emerging memory fabric products such as CXL and photonic fabric memory appliances. This cross-domain ownership networking optics and memory together is work thats often siloed across separate teams elsewhere and the results feed directly into customer proof points and executive reviews.

What You Can Expect

Key Responsibilities

Own Teralynx-based switch configuration SONiC deployment and lab fabric design.

Design tune and validate RoCE-based AI fabrics for scale-up and scale-out workloads.

Architect rail-optimized leaf-spine fat-tree and multi-plane fabric topologies for distributed training and inference clusters.

Configure and optimize ECN PFC UEC congestion-control behavior and telemetry pipelines.

Analyze GPU collective communication patterns (all-reduce all-gather broadcast reduce-scatter) and their impact on east-west traffic and fabric topology design.

Work closely with hardware architecture and product management teams to validate and demonstrate features that accelerate AI workflows.

Debug packet loss traffic hotspots head-of-line blocking and queue behavior using counters and fabric telemetry.

Build and extend network stress-test and fabric validation to support repeatable automated benchmark runs.

Work closely with performance and systems teams to correlate network behavior with end-to-end workload outcomes.

Produce repeatable network configurations fabric best practices and validation artifacts for reuse in customer-facing solutions engagements.
