Your Team, Your Impact

ODSP PHY SW Team works on Marvell’s DSP Networking Chips used in Optical Communication links. These chips form the backbone of internet, moving data within data centers, between data centers, cities and continents over high BW optical fibers. SW team owns all the SW components for the chips, including Embedded FW, Customer SDK, lab scripts and GUI applications to interface with the chips. This team is a critical part of the product development flow from initial lab bring-up to field deployment and is the go to group for getting things done, whether in the field or the lab.

Marvell’s DSPs are used in 100G to 1.6T optical modules in every major cloud data center around the world. Even the data used for this job description has travelled through many of Marvell’s DSPs to reach your computer, and our products are a key part of the biggest AI clusters that power all the latest generative AI projects.
