About Marvell

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

Built on decades of expertise and execution, Marvell’s custom Processor/ASIC solution offers a differentiated approach with a best-in-class portfolio of data infrastructure intellectual property (IP) and a wide array of flexible business models. In this unique role, you’ll have the opportunity to work on both the physical design and methodology for future designs of our next-generation, high-performance processor chips in a leading-edge CMOS process technology, targeted at server, 5G/6G, and networking applications.

The position is based in our Design Center in Bucharest, Romania.

What You Can Expect

  • In this role you will work with a global team on both the physical design of complex chips as well as the methodology to enable an efficient and robust design process.
  • Every day, you’ll be working hands-on to triage workflows, whether you’re running RTL code through synthesis and place and route (PnR) tools to create the physical view of the chip, analyzing performance by running timing analysis, verifying a robust power grid by performing EMIR analysis, etc.
  • There are many sign-off checks that need to happen to verify that the database is ready to move on to the next level, and it’s your responsibility to review completed runs for errors or create optimizations from successful runs.

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in physical design with a focus on block-level PNR for advanced CMOS process nodes (e.g., 7nm, 5nm, or below).
  • Working experience with industry-standard EDA tools for physical design, including Cadence Genus and Innovus, and Synopsys IC Compiler and Fusion Compiler.
  • Working knowledge of static timing analysis tools such as Tempus or PrimeTime and EM/IR-Drop/Crosstalk analysis tools like Voltus or PrimeRail is advantageous.
  • Working knowledge of physical verification and formal verification tools (e.g., Calibre, LEC, Formality) is advantageous.
  • Enjoy learning by doing the work and having access to guides and a mentor.
  • Be willing to raise your hand and volunteer for learning opportunities you may not have experienced before.

Additional Compensation and Benefit Elements

With competitive compensation and great benefits, you will enjoy our workstyle within an environment of shared collaboration, transparency, and inclusivity. We’re dedicated to giving our people the tools and resources they need to succeed in doing work that matters, and to grow and develop with us.
