What the published rows say about Watertown-Fort Drum, NY data center hiring
AI Cluster Deployment Manager maps to Computer and Information Systems Managers, SOC 11-3021. For Watertown-Fort Drum, NY, the May 2025 OEWS annual median is $148,540; the middle half runs from $120,110 to $167,650. 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 $47,540: $28,430 from the 25th percentile to the median and $19,110 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 $26,600 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.
