FPGA & Validation Principal engineer
- Bangalore, Karnataka
- Permanent
- Full-time
As the principal hardware and silicon FPGA validation engineer at Marvell, you’ll be helping to deliver high speed/bandwidth products. This team performs validations of Custom Compute and Storage products. We also validate digital logic and Analog implementation of silicon This is a niche area at Marvell, working with cutting edge technologies used by many internal and external customers around the world. This team plays a central role in Marvell, ensuring the quality, reliability, and performance of our MRVL Custom ASIC products. This role begins early in the design process and is central to enabling the rapid production ramps and demands of our hyper-scaler customers.What You Can Expect
- Develop and Design FPGA prototype for Pre-Silicon Validation. Understand the system and block level design and develop RTL for Pre-Silicon platforms.
- Define test requirement and review customized hardware boards to integrate with pre/post validation silicon platform.
- Develop the validation plan and execute it in a timely manner using standard test equipment such as oscilloscope, Network Analyzers, in-house tools.
- Work with designers to debug, understand and document any issues that may arise during validation and do a root cause analysis with help from designer and drive to closure.
