As of Jun 30, 2026, the average yearly pay for entrylevel fpga engineer in the United States is $101,072.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $82,500.00 and $115,500.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is the difference between Entrylevel Fpga Engineer vs Entry-level Digital Design Engineer?

AspectEntrylevel Fpga EngineerEntry-level Digital Design Engineer
Required SkillsVHDL/Verilog, FPGA development, hardware testingDigital logic, HDL, circuit design
Work EnvironmentHardware labs, FPGA development teamsDesign teams, hardware/software integration
Industry UsageElectronics, telecommunications, aerospaceConsumer electronics, embedded systems

While both roles involve digital logic and HDL skills, an Entrylevel Fpga Engineer specializes in FPGA development and hardware testing, often working directly with FPGA chips. An Entry-level Digital Design Engineer may focus more broadly on digital circuit design and system integration. The FPGA engineer role is more hardware-centric, whereas the digital design engineer may work across hardware and software interfaces.

Job Description

Do you enjoy challenging digital design verification problems? 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.

Full-Scope Poly required at the time of application

*This position is upon contract award 

Essential Job Responsibilities

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. 
 

Minimum Qualifications

2 years relevant experience with Bachelors in related field; 0 years experience with Masters in related field; or High School Diploma or equivalent and 6 years relevant experience.
 US Citizenship 
Active DoD Top Secret/SCI with Full Scope Poly at the time of consideration
 Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field 
 Experience with modern digital verification and modeling languages: SystemVerilog, SystemC, C/C++, Matlab, etc. 
 Directed, constrained-random, and assertion-based verification techniques at the gate, interface, and transaction levels 
 Experience with modern, commercial-grade, functional simulators (e.g., Xcelium, Incisive, Questa, VCS, Riviera-Pro, etc) 
 Writing scripts for batched verification tasks: Python, Bash, Tcl, make files. 
 Revision control systems for maintaining, sharing, and deploying code: Perforce, git, SVN, etc. 
 Familiarity with debugging and isolating issues with gate-level netlists 

Preferred Requirements

 Familiarity with object-oriented, embedded, assembly, or machine code programming 
 Software or hardware reverse-engineering (e.g., IDA Pro, Ghidra) 
 FPGA design or verification 
 Familiarity with testing and verification techniques for IC trust, assurance, or security 
 Experience with logical equivalence checkers (e.g., OneSpin 360-EC, ESP, Conformal EC) 
 Experience with formal ABV

Physical Requirements

May require working in an office, industrial, shipboard, or laboratory environment. Capable of climbing ladders and tolerating confined spaces and extreme temperature variances.

The listed salary range for this role is intended as a good faith estimate based on the role's location, expectations, and responsibilities. When extending an offer, HII's Mission Technologies division takes a variety of factors into consideration which include, but are not limited to, the role's function and a candidate's education or training, work experience, and key skills.
