About Marvell 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. This is an existing vacancy. Your Team, Your Impact Your Team, Your Impact As a DFT Senior Staff Engineer with Marvell, for DFT Automation & Infrastructure, you'll be a member of the Custom Silicon Engineering team. This team is a leader in large multi-die designs driving high compute performance and acceleration in AI, 5G, and 6G markets. This unique role sits above the daily DFT execution layer, focusing on automation and intrastructure development, project tracking, regression management, and tool creation to enhance team productivity and design quality across multiple concurrent projects. What You Can Expect What You Can Expect This is a "meta-DFT" position where your deep DFT expertise will be leveraged to identify bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and improvement opportunities rather than performing hands-on DFT implementation. You'll architect and develop automated tools and frameworks that track project group progress across multiple designs, manage large-scale regression runs, analyze DFT metrics and trends, and provide actionable insights to engineering teams. Your responsibilities include designing Python-based infrastructure for workflow automation, creating dashboards for real-time project visibility, establishing best practices and standardized methodologies, and developing tools that scale DFT execution across the organization. You'll work closely with DFT engineers to understand pain points and translate them into systematic solutions, while also mentoring teams on methodology adoption and continuous improvement practices.
