the lottery is wage-weighted — each level is one more entry
$3,608 more — $153,608 — moves this role to Level III and 3 lottery entries. That figure is inside the range the employer already advertised.
Based on the DOL prevailing wage for this occupation and worksite, a base salary of $153,608 would place this position at wage Level III. That figure is within the posted range, and I'd like to target it. This role classifies under "Software Developers" for prevailing-wage purposes.

About the role
- We sit at the intersection of deep analytical rigor and pragmatic business execution-helping Fortune 1000 companies and Private Equity-backed businesses unlock transformational value through data, technology, and human expertise.
- You define how solutioning is done-templates, ADR standards, threat modeling triggers, NFR profiles-and you mentor senior engineers and SAs.
Responsibilities
- Lead cross-stream technical program architecture: dependencies, contract milestones, cutover strategies.
- Drive data architecture at portfolio level: canonical patterns, shared entities, contract stability, performance SLOs for critical paths.
- Own security architecture posture for portfolio: zero-trust patterns, data classification workflows, vendor risk framing.
- Blend360 is a premier data, AI, and marketing consulting firm that partners with the world's most ambitious organizations to turn complex challenges into competitive advantage.
- Own architecture across multiple parallel workstreams (UI/API/data/integration/LLM), with explicit sequencing, risk burndown, and integration planning for Intelligent Applications.
- You partner with leadership to translate tradeoffs into business outcomes (cost, risk, time-to-value, reliability, AI risk).
Requirements
- 8+ years equivalent experience or demonstrated staff-level solution leadership.
- Proven multi-team / multi-stream technical coordination with shipped outcomes.
- ability to arbitrate contentious technical decisions-including LLM architecture controversy (RAG vs fine-tuning vs buy).
- Experience quantifying architecture decisions (TCO/ROI ranges, risk reduction).
Nice to have
- Success in first 90 days
- Standards measurably reduce rework and integration defects.
- Other architects/engineers measurably level up (reviews, fewer escalations).
- It is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range and determining factors for compensation are considered for each individual circumstance.
Compensation
- $150k-$170k
