Your Team, Your Impact
The Optics team builds highly integrated component platforms with high speed Silicon photonics, transmit and receive amplifiers, controller ASIC’s with Marvell DSP’s. These components are made operational with a highly functional embedded firmware. The team is responsible for design, verification, and validation of these integrated high speed optical components. The team performs system level testing under various operating conditions, and validates the performance of the hardware, firmware and control loops. An engineer in this team will be involved in a full product lifecycle and will carry new products from inception all the way to NPI.What You Can Expect
The Silicon Photonics Engineer will be a key contributor to development of state-of-the-art silicon photonics light engine at Marvell.
In this role you will be part of a development team that is responsible for all aspects of engineering design, process development, and productization for Marvell’s next-generation optics products.
Implement creative design solutions to accelerate design and tape-out of photonics products.
Collaborate closely with CAD and foundry process teams working on the development and support of next generation photonics design flow and design automation.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams consisting of Digital and Analog Circuit designers, Signal/Power Integrity, and substrate layout, and system design team.
What We're Looking For
PhD in Electrical Engineering, Photonics or related discipline, or equivalently those with an M.S/M. Eng. with industrial experience in photonic integrated circuit design and validation will also be considered.
A strong understanding of optical component design, fabrication and validation.
Solid background in semiconductor optical devices such as modulators, detectors and other integrated waveguide devices.
Use of industry standard optical and electrical modeling and simulation software to design electro-optical devices and generate GDS level mask data for device fabrication.
Direct experience of optical components and integrated circuits characterization including optical coupling, DC and RF testing. Test automation in R&D environment.
Familiarity or direct experience in the standard Si/CMOS/MEMS process technologies required for fabrication and integration of electrical and optical devices.
