Senior Principal og Mixed-Signal Design Engineer - RFSiPhoTIACMOSSiGe

Marvells Broadband Analog group designs physical layer ICs for highspeed fiber optic data communication such as Transimpedance Amplifiers (TIAs) and drivers for Silicon Photonic (SiPho) and discrete Electroabsorption Modulators (EAMs) and MachZehnder Interferometer Modulators (MZMs). This group is the market leader in delivering TIAs and Drivers for Data Center and Telecom markets. We address the bandwidth capacity and power issues faced by cloud computing and mega data center networks. Our world class group leverages our core competencies in advanced circuit design to solve the worlds everincreasing desire to transmit more data for less power with fewer errors. We are continually first to market in Data Center Metro and LongHaul applications.
As a member of the design group the candidate will be responsible for design and validation of FET and BiCMOS circuits for highspeed broadband ICs that serve these application

What You Can Expect

Job Responsibilities

Marvell is seeking an RF and Analog Design Engineer to contribute to the development of multitens of GHz Transimpedance amplifiers TIAs. These optical interface chips are tightly coupled with our highperformance equalizers. The results of our innovative designs have made our TIAs best in class for coherent longhaul and metro systems as well as PAM4 data center systems.

In this role you will be responsible for:

• Active circuit design as well as technical leadership.
• Design leading edge transimpedance amplifier design primarily in Silicon Germanium (SiGe) BiCMOS (Bipolar Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) technology where circuit performance will need to transcend beyond industry leading products.
• Develop transmission line structures and other millimeter wave structures to enable higher performance than would normally be achievable.
• Design of hiperformance broadband analog circuits for optical frontend receivers.
• Design of various other analog circuits including linear regulators AGC loop current/voltage sensors bandgaps etc.
• Develop microarchitecture of chips and major circuit blocks and guide a team of designers to implement them. Work with various technologies including SiGe BiCMOS and CMOS.
• Work with other functional groups to drive postsilicon validation qualification transition to mass production and customer support.
• Work with management and marketing to define parts and translate the specifications and definitions into circuit implementation
