H-1B sponsorship profile

Databricks certifies 1,209 H-1B / E-3 wage filings through FY2026 — filing volume cooling. Below, how those offers compare to the legal prevailing-wage floor each role must clear.

Offered vs. prevailing floor
+3%

Median certified offer runs 3% above the floor.

Filings paid above the floor
76%

The rest are set exactly at the prevailing wage — legal, and common among high-volume filers.

Filing volume by fiscal year

Filed across 1 legal entity under this brand — largest: Databricks, Inc. (1,209).

Every H-1B role carries a legally required prevailing-wage floor (the OES rate for that occupation, area, and level). The offered wage on the certified filing must meet or exceed it — so “% above floor” distinguishes employers who genuinely pay a premium from those who file at the minimum.

Green-card sponsorship record

Databricks has 427 certified permanent-residency (PERM) applications on the federal record through FY2026 — filing volume rising. The question this answers: does this employer put workers on the path to a green card, or only on visas?

What this data is — and isn't

These bands come from certified H-1B Labor Condition Application disclosures — the base salary employers commit to on the record. They exclude equity, bonus, and benefits, and they cover only roles companies sponsor, which skews technical. Read them as a conservative, citable floor on what Databricks pays — not total compensation. Our sources.
