Work with architects, hardware, firmware, and test teams to co-design and verify system-level speed and reliability features. Develop verification collateral, automation and AI/LLM-assisted tooling, perform pre- and post-silicon characterization and tester-to-system correlation, and lead debug of complex silicon issues to ensure on-time product shipment.

SCG sits at the crossroads of design, architecture, marketing, and productization—owning the journey from the architecture stage through final product definition across Gaming, Datacenter, Automotive, and Embedded markets. As a System Verification CoDesign Engineer, you will work on system-level speed features, develop the verification collaterals and automation infrastructure to characterize and validate them, and lead debug of the complex silicon issues that stand between a program and on-time shipment. This is a hands-on role for an engineer who combines deep technical craft with the drive to compress cycle time using modern tooling—including AI—without losing rigor. 

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with system architects, hardware, firmware/software, process/reliability, and operations teams to co-design system-level speed features and deliver industry-defining products. 

  • Understand system level behavior and speed reliability margins, bounding box constraints and identify solutions that optimize margins. 

  • Translate hardware features and architectural requirements into verification techniques that achieve full coverage across testing flows. 

  • Perform closed loop validation by correlating silicon behavior against timing simulation and design expectations; provide actionable feedback to improve future designs. 

  • Define, prototype, and refine pre- and post-silicon bring-up flows to ensure product quality, performance, and schedule efficiency. 

  • Design and implement automation tools for system speed modeling; apply AI and LLM-assisted workflows (e.g., automated log analysis, pattern detection, scripting acceleration) to compress characterization and debug cycles. 

  • Architect and influence testability features critical to performance, power, and reliability in partnership with design, DFx, and ATE teams. 

  • Lead debug of complex silicon and system-level issues, including show-stopper defects, to enable on-time product shipment. 

What We Need to See:

  • MS in EE, CE, Systems Engineering, or equivalent experience. 

  • 4+ years of experience in a related hardware engineering role. 

  • Hands-on experience with silicon bring-up, frequency and power characterization, PPA analysis in pre- and post-silicon phases, System/Platform level understanding, tester-to-system correlation, and lab instrumentation (oscilloscopes, multimeters, DAQs). 

  • Scripting proficiency in Python and/or Perl; comfortable in Windows, Linux, and Android environments. 

  • Familiarity with statistical methods and data analysis tools (JMP or equivalent). 

  • Demonstrated use of AI or LLM-based tools (e.g., Claude, Copilot, ChatGPT) in an engineering workflow—scripting acceleration, log triage, data analysis—with clear judgment about output validation and where automation introduces risk. 

Ways to stand out from the crowd: 

  • Background in gaming, automotive, or datacenter segments. 

  • Experience building or deploying AI-assisted characterization, log analysis, or debug automation workflows in a production silicon environment. 

  • Familiarity with LLM evaluation, prompt engineering, or agentic scripting pipelines applied to silicon data analysis.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
