H-1B sponsorship profile: Ninth Wave. Across U.S. Department of Labor LCA disclosures, Ninth Wave filed 5 Labor Condition Applications covering 5 H-1B worker positions between fiscal year 2025 and fiscal year 2026. The employer’s DOL certification rate sits at 100% (5 certified of 5 filed), a useful proxy for how cleanly their prevailing-wage attestations pass the Labor Department’s preliminary review before USCIS adjudication.

Compensation spread. Offered wages on Ninth Wave’s H-1B petitions range from $94,682 at the low end to $132,000 at the high end, with a petition-weighted average of $111,013. That range reflects the mix of occupations the company sponsors, led by Software Engineer (2 petitions at $113,750 avg), followed by UI/UX Developer and Information Security Engineer. H-1B salaries reported on LCAs must meet or exceed the DOL prevailing wage for the role and worksite, so the spread also tracks wage-level geography and seniority.

Geographic footprint. Ninth Wave is headquartered in New York, NY under NAICS code 541519, and places H-1B workers across 1 state, most heavily in NY. Combined, these signals give a granular view of how one employer uses the H-1B program, volume, approval cleanliness, wage posture, and where the jobs actually sit on the map.

Where Ninth Wave ranks. By H-1B petition volume, Ninth Wave is #26,547 of 119,880 employers nationally and #2,508 of 14,719 employers headquartered in NY. Both ranks are computed live from the same underlying petition counts, not a separate estimate.
