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 Richmond, VA data center hiring
CEO / President, Data Center Platform maps to Chief Executives, SOC 11-1011. For Richmond, VA, the May 2025 OEWS annual median is $326,160; the middle half runs from $188,360 to $401,930. This is a broader occupation, not a separate wage estimate for this exact job. BLS does not separate seniority titles that share this row. Define decision authority and the scope of the team or account before setting the offer. The occupation estimate does not separately price your site's responsibilities.
The middle-half spread is $213,570: $137,800 from the 25th percentile to the median and $75,770 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 $112,170 above the national $213,990 on the same annual basis. Both rows cover SOC 11-1011 in May 2025. This is a wage comparison, not a cost-of-living adjustment or evidence of a separate data center premium.
Virginia Beach-Chesapeake-Norfolk, VA-NC reports a annual median of $297,350 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 $28,810 below Richmond, VA's median.
Charlottesville, VA reports a annual median of $317,900 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 $8,260 below Richmond, VA's median.
The highest exact national industry medians in the loaded SOC 11-1011 rows are Rail Transportation at $667,600 and Rail Transportation at $667,600. 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 Richmond, VA.
The matched median moved from $232,850 in May 2024 to $326,160 in May 2025: $93,310 higher. Both rows use SOC 11-1011, area 40060 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 CEO / President, Data Center Platform-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 Richmond, VA, the May 2025 OEWS annual median is $180,640; the middle half runs from $153,580 to $224,320. 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 $70,740: $27,060 from the 25th percentile to the median and $43,680 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 $5,500 above 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.
