Hardware Design Intern (Onsite, Singapore)

About the role

Marvell is recruiting a Hardware Design Intern for its Central Engineering business group, which supplies IP to Data Center, Switching, Networking, Storage and Security. The intern joins the Central System Engineering Hardware Design team and works on high-power, high-speed, multi-layer boards. This is an onsite role in Singapore covering the full hardware design process, from schematic capture and component selection through simulation, PCB design and hardware validation.

Key responsibilities

• Design and develop high-speed hardware, including schematic capture, component selection, PCB layout, simulation and validation.
• Perform Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI) analysis to optimise design performance.
• Work with architecture and validation teams to understand system requirements and testing needs.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate hardware designs into the overall system.
• Run circuit, PCB and electromagnetic simulations with engineering tools.
• Carry out hardware bring-up, debugging, characterisation and validation using equipment such as broadband Vector Network Analyzers (VNA) and protocol analyzers.
• Review technical requirements and evaluate trade-offs between performance, power, cost and reliability.
• Take part in project meetings, design reviews and brainstorming sessions, and document design decisions and test results.

Required profile

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field, with a focus on schematic design, board or package routing, SI and PI analysis, and programmable device design.
• A school or professional project involving schematic capture and circuit design, with the ability to explain objectives, role and contributions and how issues were resolved.
• Hands-on laboratory experience debugging issues not found during design review, and the ability to tell whether an issue relates to the circuit, chip or board.
• Good communication skills and comfort working with others toward a common team goal.

Required skills

• PCB design and routing with Cadence Allegro
• Simulation with Ansys Electronics and SPICE
• Signal Integrity and Power Integrity analysis
