Based on the DOL prevailing wage for this occupation and worksite, a base salary of $75,213 would place this position at wage Level II. That figure is within the posted range, and I'd like to target it. This role classifies under "Materials Engineers" for prevailing-wage purposes.

The occupation sets the prevailing wage floor.Reclassification is routine and can reflect genuinely hybrid roles; it is not by itself evidence of underpayment.
