At roughly $21/hr, this posting comes in about 36% below the $33/hr median for welding jobs across New York, where the middle half runs $28–$41/hr across 101 postings with published pay.

That gap is worth raising directly — in a market this size there is normally room to negotiate toward the median, particularly if you already hold the certifications the posting asks for.
