Do you have specific examples of jobs like that that pay on the latter end of that spectrum?

Solutions engineer also sounds interesting. Thank you for mentioning it.

most tech companies with at least $500 million market cap will pay that (california, seattle, or NY) if you have at least 2-3 years experience.

here's a unicorn list (all private companies with at least $1 bil market cap) https://www.cbinsights.com/research-unicorn-companies

Pick one and look at engineering roles. For example, I would assume this role at Brex (no affiliation, chose from list) pays at least 180-200k. https://www.brex.com/careers/engineering/4946341002/

of course, public tech companies (e.g. FAANG, Twilio, etc) will also pay that.
