Full Job Description
Your Team, Your Impact

We're seeking a candidate with strong problem solving and analytical skills to join the Supply Chain Planning group. You'll collaborate with global cross-functional teams of Business Operations, Marketing, Engineering, and Suppliers to support corporate revenue goals and manage on-time delivery expectations by ensuring optimal supply.

At Marvell, every single chip that we design, put into production, and eventually ship has a team that includes a supply chain planner. You'll be managing the outside vendors for that chip project including the foundry, assembly, testing, warehousing, and others. You'll be coordinating the instructions we provide them, scheduling materials, and making sure dates are met. At Marvell, you'll also be working closely with your internal chip design team and doing some aspects of project management with them as well. Unlike at some other companies, this role comprises external vendor management and internal project management.

• Create targeted forecasting techniques for various customer and product segmentations.
• Drive quarterly review of product portfolio for product discontinuance and new product ramps.
• Own and improve forecast accuracy and bias metrics.
• Drive root cause/corrective actions to improve performance.
• Set up appropriate buffer stocks to balance the supply chain delivery and inventory goals.
• Review wafer starts plan and assembly loads plan weekly to drive balance between delivery and inventor.
• Own customer on-time delivery metric and analyze root cause/corrective actions to achieve target goals

What We're Looking For
• Minimum 15 years of relevant experience with 5 years in a managerial capacity, preferably in the Semiconductor industry.
• BS/BA in Business Administration, Engineering, Finance, or Operations. MBA/MS preferred. 7+ years of related job experience.
• Semiconductor experience a strong plus.
• Good communication and self-starter.
• Strong reporting and analytical abilities, detail oriented.
• Experience using advanced planning systems. Statistical software packages a plus.
• Proficient in MS Office (Word, Excel); advanced Excel skills are a must.

Expected Base Pay Range (USD)
106,800 - 160,000, $ per annum

The successful candidate's starting base pay will be determined based on job-related skills, experience, qualifications, work location and market conditions. The expected base pay range for this role may be modified based on market conditions.

This role is eligible to participate in Marvell's bonus and equity plans, including a new hire equity grant and annual equity refreshers, ensuring you are rewarded for your contributions and remain invested in the company's long-term success.
