Data Verification Jobs in Virginia (NOW HIRING)

Are you driven by curiosity, energized by complex challenges, and motivated to dissect the unknown? Join a cutting‑edge team where your expertise directly shapes mission outcomes and national security. We’re looking for engineers who excel at uncovering how systems work (and why), thrive in an environment where innovation moves fast and the stakes are high.

If you enjoy pushing boundaries, experimenting with new approaches, and delivering solutions that make a measurable impact — this is the role for you.

HII Mission Technologies is seeking out-of-the-box thinkers who can uncover difficult-to-activate corner‑case bugs and vulnerabilities in the gate‑level netlists of FPGA and ASIC designs. Candidates for this position will contribute to the team by utilizing industry‑standard functional verification tools (e.g., Questa, VCS, Verdi), logical equivalence tools (e.g., OneSpin 360EC), and proprietary software tools to verify design function and integrity. Common verification targets include embedded processors, DSPs, filters, transceivers, data links, systems‑on‑chip, and decoders.

Experience in the cybersecurity, electronic warfare, encryption, radar, and/or satellite communications domains is a plus.

Level 2 salary range: $90,000–$95,000
Level 3 salary range: $120,000–$130,000
Level 4 salary range: $160,000–$175,000
Level 5 salary range: $185,000–$190,000

Candidates will develop models, transactors, stimuli, monitors, and test benches for simulating and uncovering hidden behaviors in gate‑level digital netlists. Candidates will be expected to produce clear documentation and test cases demonstrating identified bugs or deviations from the specification. Effective collaboration with teammates to produce cohesive results and create improved processes is required.
