How much do verilog jobs pay per year?

As of Aug 30, 2026, the average yearly pay for verilog in Virginia is $154,738.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $134,800.00 and $174,000.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is Verilog?

A Verilog job typically involves designing, simulating, and verifying digital circuits using Verilog, a hardware description language (HDL). Engineers in this role work on FPGA and ASIC development for applications such as processors, communication systems, and embedded hardware. Responsibilities often include writing Verilog code, performing design synthesis, and debugging hardware using simulation tools. Verilog engineers are commonly employed in semiconductor, aerospace, and consumer electronics industries.

What does a typical day-to-day workflow look like for someone working with Verilog?

A typical day in a Verilog role involves writing and modifying Verilog code to describe digital circuits, running simulations to verify design functionality, and debugging hardware issues in collaboration with other engineers. You might also interact with hardware engineers, verification teams, and project managers to ensure project milestones are met. Regular review meetings and design documentation are integral parts of the workflow, and you’ll often switch between independent tasks and team-based problem-solving. The work environment is usually dynamic and deadline-driven, offering opportunities to learn about cutting-edge hardware technologies.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Verilog position, and why are they important?

To excel in a Verilog role, you need a deep understanding of digital logic design, hardware description languages (especially Verilog), and often a degree in electrical or computer engineering. Experience with simulation tools like ModelSim, EDA tools such as Synopsys or Cadence, and potentially industry certifications like FPGA or ASIC design are highly valued. Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and effective teamwork are important soft skills in this field. These competencies are essential for creating reliable, efficient hardware designs and collaborating within multidisciplinary engineering teams.

Job description

Overview

Bowhead is seeking a FPGA Engineer to join our team that supports the Hypersonics Projectiles Division of the Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren and contribute to the development of high-performance digital systems.

In this role, you will design, implement, and optimize FPGA-based solutions for complex hardware applications. You will work with VHDL, Verilog, and high-level synthesis tools, collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure efficient and reliable hardware integration.

Responsibilities
  • Design and develop FPGA-based architectures for real-time and high-speed applications.
  • Implement and optimize VHDL/Verilog code for FPGA designs.
  • Conduct simulation, synthesis, and timing analysis to ensure performance optimization.
  • Perform debugging and validation of FPGA designs using industry-standard tools and methodologies.
  • Collaborate with hardware, software, and systems engineering teams to develop integrated solutions.
  • Develop and maintain FPGA testbenches for functional verification.
  • Contribute to system integration, testing, and troubleshooting of FPGA-based hardware.
  • Document design specifications, implementation details, and test results.
  • Other duties as assigned.
Qualifications
  • Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
  • 3-7 years of experience in FPGA design and development.
  • Proficiency in HDL programming (VHDL, Verilog) and FPGA development tools (Vivado, Quartus, etc.).
  • Strong understanding of digital logic design, high-speed interfaces, and embedded systems.
  • Experience with hardware/software co-design and debugging tools (Oscilloscope, JTAG, Signal Analyzer).
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple projects effectively.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with Xilinx, Altera (Intel FPGA), or Lattice FPGA architectures.
  • Knowledge of C/C++, Python for FPGA development.
  • Understanding of high-performance computing, signal processing, and networking applications.
  • Familiarity with System Verilog, UVM methodology, or high-level synthesis (HLS).

Physical Demands:

  • Must be able to lift up to 50 pounds
  • Must be able to stand and walk for prolonged amounts of time
  • Must be able to twist, bend and squat periodically

SECURITY CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS: Must currently hold a security clearance at the Secret level. US Citizenship is a requirement for Secret clearance at this location.

Targeted salary range is $110,000 to $130,000 annually based on qualifications and experience.
