What BLS wages cover: OEWS includes base rates, guaranteed pay, commissions and production incentives. It excludes on-call waiting or availability pay, overtime, shift differentials, nonproduction bonuses and benefits. The on-call exclusion covers time awaiting a call to work, not ordinary wages for hours actually worked. These are straight-time gross wages, not pure base salary or total compensation. Discuss per diem, travel and relocation separately. BLS pay-term definitions.

What the published rows say about Las Cruces, NM data center hiring

BIM Manager maps to Architectural and Engineering Managers, SOC 11-9041. For Las Cruces, NM, the May 2025 OEWS annual median is $170,990; the middle half runs from $148,500 to $185,310. This is a broader occupation, not a separate wage estimate for this exact job. BLS does not separate seniority titles that share this row. Clarify the systems this hire must own and where design responsibility ends and field support begins. The occupation estimate does not separately price a license, a platform or a travel requirement.

The middle-half spread is $36,810: $22,490 from the 25th percentile to the median and $14,320 from the median to the 75th. The lower interval is wider. Use these points to compare an offer, not to price a junior or senior hire. Percentiles are not experience bands, and this distribution alone does not explain why individual workers earn different amounts.

The local median is $280 below the national $171,270 on the same annual basis. Both rows cover SOC 11-9041 in May 2025. This is a wage comparison, not a cost-of-living adjustment or evidence of a separate data center premium.

El Paso, TX reports a annual median of $144,360 for this occupation in May 2025. It is one of the two nearest usable metro reference points, measured from the Census area internal point. That is $26,630 below Las Cruces, NM's median.

Sierra Vista-Douglas, AZ reports a annual median of $156,500 for this occupation in May 2025. It is one of the two nearest usable metro reference points, measured from the Census area internal point. That is $14,490 below Las Cruces, NM's median.

The highest exact national industry medians in the loaded SOC 11-9041 rows are Office Administrative Services at $284,860 and Medical and Diagnostic Laboratories at $278,830. These are May 2025 national occupation estimates, not local data center pay. The loaded data has no local industry-by-occupation breakdown, so it cannot rank industries within Las Cruces, NM.

The matched median moved from $170,740 in May 2024 to $170,990 in May 2025: $250 higher. Both rows use SOC 11-9041, area 29740 and the same annual basis. This is not adjusted for inflation or annualized, and it does not attribute the change to a particular employer.

OEWS includes base rates, guaranteed pay, commissions and production incentives. It excludes on-call waiting or availability pay, overtime, shift differentials, nonproduction bonuses and benefits. The on-call exclusion covers time awaiting a call to work, not ordinary wages for hours actually worked. This is neither pure base salary nor total compensation. Agree travel, per diem and relocation terms separately. No verified BIM Manager-specific allowance is in this occupation row, so none is added to the figures.

AI Cluster Deployment Manager maps to Computer and Information Systems Managers, SOC 11-3021. For Las Cruces, NM, the May 2025 OEWS annual median is $128,360; the middle half runs from $110,300 to $151,830. This is a broader occupation, not a separate wage estimate for this exact job. BLS does not separate seniority titles that share this row. Tell candidates whether the job is ticket-led work, deployment or independent fault-finding. Titles can share a BLS row even when the floor responsibilities and shift expectations differ.

The middle-half spread is $41,530: $18,060 from the 25th percentile to the median and $23,470 from the median to the 75th. The upper interval is wider. Use these points to compare an offer, not to price a junior or senior hire. Percentiles are not experience bands, and this distribution alone does not explain why individual workers earn different amounts.

The local median is $46,780 below the national $175,140 on the same annual basis. Both rows cover SOC 11-3021 in May 2025. This is a wage comparison, not a cost-of-living adjustment or evidence of a separate data center premium.

El Paso, TX reports a annual median of $152,840 for this occupation in May 2025. It is one of the two nearest usable metro reference points, measured from the Census area internal point. That is $24,480 above Las Cruces, NM's median.
