This role is further up the ladder. If you're starting out, you'd begin as a rookie crewmember and work up to it. Here's the path:
Crewmember (Firefighter Type 2)
Senior firefighter Β· squad Β· engine operator
Squad boss β engine captain Β· crew boss
Superintendent Β· module leader Β· fire management officer
Specialist track: smokejumper, hotshot, and helitack crews are a parallel path you can jump to after a season on the ground.
Federal fire career structure (NWCG / DOI). Time to advance varies by experience, openings, and qualifications.
$52,957β$74,970/yr
base salary per year Β· GW-5β6
GW is the wildland firefighter pay scale (new in 2024 β it pays more than the older GS scale). The number is the grade β higher means more pay and responsibility.
That's the floor. Here's how a year stacks up once overtime (1.5Γ) and hazard pay (+25% on the fireline) during fire season are added on top of the base salary:
Slow season β few, short fires β little deployment
Typical busy season β regular fires, steady overtime
Big fire year β heavy deployment all summer
Estimate, based on the midpoint of this posting's pay range (for salaried roles, overtime is figured at the hourly-equivalent rate). The overtime hours β roughly 300 / 700 / 1,300 in a full 6-month season, scaled to the months you pick β are modeled on reported earnings.
Want the full pay picture? See how much wildland firefighters make by grade: base, overtime, hazard, incident pay, and per diem.
The big money is for fire work β not desk time.
These rules are the same for everyone, rookie to supervisor. Base pay comes from real job postings; the rules below come straight from federal law:
Overtime β time-and-a-half
For hours over 40 spent fighting fire. On a fire, even supervisors earn full overtime β regular office hours don't count.
β Federal law: Firefighter Pay Reform Act Β· 5 U.S.C. 5542 βHazard pay β +25%
An extra quarter on top of your pay β but only for hours actually on the fire line. Not for office or standby time.
β Federal law: Federal hazard-pay rules Β· 5 CFR 550 βIncident pay β up to $9,000 a year
A daily bonus when you're sent to a multi-day fire away from your home base.
β Federal law: Incident Response Premium Pay Β· 5 U.S.C. 5545c βπ₯ Get new wildland fire jobs by email
