Celebrating our interns every day!
At Marvell, we celebrate every day the contributions of over 400 talented interns who have joined us this year! On National Intern Week last week, and any day, we recognize their meaningful impacts as they learn, connect, and contribute across 13 countries and more than 30 locations.
Career insights from Marvell leaders
Over the past several weeks, our interns have had the opportunity to engage directly with Marvell executives in sessions designed to share career experiences, offer advice, and answer questions. In a recent session, Marvell Chairman and CEO Matt Murphy shared insights from his career journey, highlighting the significant role internships played in shaping his professional path. He emphasized the value of Marvell’s internship program and the company’s commitment to nurturing talent by not only offering internships but also providing many interns with full-time roles upon graduation.

“My advice for high schoolers is to build a strong foundation in math and physics. If computer science courses are available, take them.”
Marvell has always been at the forefront of innovation, and this summer, we welcomed a groundbreaking addition to our team: Ejaz Ahamed Shaik, our first-ever GenAI intern. He’s among more than 400 global interns at Marvell this summer.
Many of us use GenAI but what does someone do whose job title is GenAI? And how did Ejaz prepare for his internship when GenAI arrived on the scene less than two years ago?
Let’s go ask him.
Q: First, how does it feel to be Marvell's first GenAI intern?
Ejaz: It's an incredible opportunity. The job market for software development engineers is now very competitive, especially with advancements in AI. Being at Marvell, where there's a strong focus on innovation, allows me to work on cutting-edge projects and contribute to the future of technology. I do get a lot of attention. There’s a general curiosity among others about what I do.
Q: What are you currently working on at Marvell?
Ejaz: My main focus is developing a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) system to assist developers with Verilog queries and design issues. (What’s that mean?) This system aims to detect early anomalies in the design process of a chip, which can be costly if not identified before verification. By integrating advanced large language model (LLM) tools, I'm creating a solution that provides accurate and timely insights to developers, streamlining the design and verification process. We're also working on developing a custom large language model specifically for addressing Verilog design and verification issues.

Marvell principal hardware engineer Simon Xu regularly goes from circuits to the courts. In his time outside of the semiconductor company, he's a mentor to his twin daughters, Annie and Kerry.
And not just any mentor. This July, the 24-year-old twins will be heading to the Paris Olympics to compete side-by-side in women’s doubles badminton. This is backyard badminton taken to a whole other level. “Badminton has the fastest flying objects in Olympic sports,” says Annie. “The bird can go more than 300 miles an hour over the net. For this level of play, you need extremely good body coordination, fast reflexes, lots of stamina and strong arms.”

The Asian population at Marvell is diverse and growing, bringing a rich mix of culture and heritage to our company. This May, we had the chance to celebrate their unique traditions and achievements during Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month.
Marvell’s Lu Zhang and Bofan Ren, both in HR, showed off their cooking skills in a video demo, teaching colleague Rhaelen Passamani how to make dumplings. “Sharing your passion this way is a great way to promote culture and culture is a very important aspect of work – it helps people feel they belong. Plus, cooking is something that makes me feel relaxed,” says Lu.
Bofan adds, “Making dumplings is a team effort. Someone makes the dough, someone makes the filling, and so on. It’s a great way for families and friends to chat and catch up.”
Celebrating AAPI Heritage Month at Marvell is all about highlighting our cultural diversity and strengthening our connections through shared experiences and stories. As we learn from each other, we make our workplace more inclusive and vibrant.
