Salaries in Maine

What the published rows say about Maine data center hiring

AI Cluster Deployment Manager maps to Computer and Information Systems Managers, SOC 11-3021. For Maine, the May 2025 OEWS annual median is $160,260; the middle half runs from $126,450 to $201,410. 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 $74,960: $33,810 from the 25th percentile to the median and $41,150 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 $14,880 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.

Agree travel, per diem and relocation terms separately. No verified AI Cluster Deployment Manager-specific allowance is in this occupation row, so none is added to the figures.
