At roughly $72/hr, this posting sits about 119% above the $33/hr median for welding jobs across New York — toward the top of a $27–$41/hr middle band drawn from 98 postings with published pay. Put another way, it pays more than about 98% of the comparable postings we have wage data for. Pay that far above local median usually comes attached to something: a harder cert requirement, travel, night shift, or overtime that isn't really optional. Worth establishing which before you accept.
