Marvell is looking to develop next-generation test and manufacturing hardware platforms that support high-power, high-complexity semiconductor devices, requiring scalable, reliable, and cost-effective solutions for wafer, package, and system-level test.

Requirements

  • Proven experience in thermal and mechanical design for semiconductor test or high-performance electronics.
  • Hands-on experience with automation systems, robotics, and machine vision integration — including motion control, part handling, and connector actuation.
  • Prior experience working with microwave or optical test environments, including connector mating, signal integrity, and alignment challenges.
  • Proficiency with simulation and design tools such as Ansys, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, and thermal modeling platforms.
  • Expertise with system-level test, ATE, and handler platforms, including thermal control, interface materials and heat spreader design.
  • Strong understanding of system-level integration challenges across electrical, optical, and mechanical domains.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the design, simulation, and validation of thermal and mechanical systems for advanced test infrastructure, including wafer probe, final test, and system level test.
  • Architect and implement automation solutions for test equipment, robotic part handling, and machine vision systems, with a focus on precision alignment for microwave and optical interfaces.
  • Develop control systems for automated insertion/extraction of microwave and optical connectors, including blind-mate and high-force applications.
  • Drive innovation in thermal interface materials, cooling strategies, and mechanical fixturing to support high-power dissipation and large form factors.
  • Own BOM creation, vendor engagement, and prototype validation for custom assemblies and tooling.
  • Support test vehicle development and infrastructure readiness for NPI and high-volume manufacturing.
  • Analyze system performance, identify bottlenecks, and iterate on design for improved reliability, repeatability, and manufacturability.

Other

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Thermal Sciences, or related fields with 15+ years of relevant experience, or Master’s/PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Thermal Sciences, or related fields with 10-12 years of relevant experience.
  • Collaborate with photonics, microwave, and product engineering teams to ensure cohesive hardware integration and performance.
  • Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
  • Self-motivated, detail-oriented, and capable of leading complex projects from concept to deployment.
  • This position may require access to technology and/or software subject to U.S. export control laws and regulations, including the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). As such, applicants must be eligible to access export-controlled information as defined under applicable law.
