Each posting is classified from its text, not its title: the kind of work, how much of it is production code, pre-sales weight, time at customer sites, travel, remote arrangement, level and posted base pay. The site also publishes the aggregates: median pay by level, metro, company and kind of work, and which companies started hiring FDEs each week. Every page under https://nextmove.md/fde is served this way; the index of pages is https://nextmove.md/llms.txt. # Palantir Mission Integration Lead Canonical URL: https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/8756e873fbd3ce1f Booz Allen posts a FDE role to build what the customer runs in Fayetteville, NC and 4 more, at $99,000–$225,000 base, below the senior FDE median of $190,000 across 1,868 postings with pay.
