For that level of experience you can prob get 200k in a MCOL area in the US, or up to 500k+ in HCOL
The rest of the world has already been in a rude awakening, talented engineers should be compensated well no matter where they happen to live

Yes, American salaries are ridiculous in a global context. The rest of the world should demand better.
$93.5K isn't abysmally low in the USA. Average is about 66k
$93.5k is abysmally low for a Senior Solutions Architect in the USA. I would expect at least $175k if not $200k+ on average. Plus stock and bonuses.
