Your Team, Your Impact

Group Description
Join Marvell's Custom Compute Solutions Business Unit (CCSBU) as we establish our design presence in San Diego's thriving semiconductor ecosystem.

This team will be responsible for delivering high-quality customer silicon for advanced AI, XPU, and XPU-Attach programs. By partnering closely with customers and internal stakeholders, the design center will enable Marvell's most strategic and financially significant custom SoC initiatives, delivering differentiated solutions that reinforce Marvell's position as a trusted partner for next-generation compute platforms.
