Based on the DOL prevailing wage for this occupation and worksite, a base salary of $82,077 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 "Mechanical Engineers" for prevailing-wage purposes.

The Department of Labor assigned a different occupation than this employer requested on 55% of its 11 wage determinations — against a 18% norm. The occupation sets the prevailing wage floor.Reclassification is routine and can reflect genuinely hybrid roles; it is not by itself evidence of underpayment.
