At roughly $33/hr, this posting sits about 17% above the $28/hr median for welding jobs in US, US — toward the top of a $24–$32/hr middle band drawn from 26 postings with published pay. Put another way, it pays more than about 81% 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.
