Your Team, Your Impact

We are seeking an Analog Layout Design Intern to support and contribute to the development of High-Speed Connectivity, Broadband Analog and Data-Transport products including functional blocks such as high-speed digital, high-speed ADC, PLL's, and IP products at Pavia's (Italy) design center.

As an Analog Layout Engineer with Marvell, you’ll be a member of the Central Engineering business group. If you picture Marvell as a wheel, Central Engineering is the center hub providing IP to be used by all the other spokes on that wheel, including Automotive, Storage, Security, and Networking. You’ll be part of a small analog team making a big impact on this organization. Additionally, Marvell has the perfect size and scale for you to learn several aspects of engineering that will be new to you, but also have the time and freedom to dive deep into the details of your specialization on most projects.

The successful candidate will be self-motivated, willing to learn exciting new technologies, and be able to work effectively within a talented group of individuals. You will gain exposure to a variety of IC design engineering skills and tools during your internship. The Internship would be for a duration of up to 6 months and will take place in our Pavia office.

What You Can Expect

• Join a growing team responsible for layout development and delivery of Foundational IP and Analog layout for SOCs and Test chips. You will be working with local team in Italy and global teams in Argentina, Singapore, the U.S., and throughout Europe.
• Learn the use of all the different IC layout development CAD and physical verification tools.
• Train on Mask/layout design using Cadence Virtuoso EXL/Custom Compiler Synopsys using circuit design as input.
• Learn design rules of advanced CMOS technology nodes (16nm to 3nm).
• Run DRC/LVS checks.
• Learn Electromigration/IR drop (EMIR) concepts for analog IC layout.
• Optimize layout designs in terms of area and parasitic R,C.
• Work with team and collaborate effectively with people for effective outcomes.
• Have routine meetings with your technical mentor when you have questions, as well as the layout team and the project team where you may have to speak to the entire group and update them about your progress. You may have to present a particular issue or solution you’ve encountered. We are developing brand new cutting-edge technologies here, so we learn new things frequently and share with our colleagues.

What We're Looking For

• Must have a fundamental understanding of base electronic concepts, likely acquired through a degree in Electronics Engineering (graduate or undergraduate) or similar technical field.
• Student of Electronics or a similar technical field, enrolled at an accredited Italian university OR a Bachelor/Master recent graduate (graduated in the last 12 months).
• Having some specialized coursework in analog design or layout, either as part of your Electronic Engineering degree, summer courses, or conference courses, is a valuable skill.
• Must understand circuit elements like diode, transistor, capacitor, and resistor—basic digital fundamentals: latches, flip-flops, and combinatorial logic.
• Must have excellent communication skills to give status updates to your team, present to global teams in different time zones, and share information with various levels of personnel at Marvell.
• Must have fluency in English and enough Italian.
• Must be eligible to work in the country of hire without restrictions.
