All the offers I've seen or ranges I've discussed with recruiters have been much lower than what I'm currently making (95k, HCOL) so not sure what to expect

Typically I see offers around $120-140k in HCOL. I landed a FAANG with $200+ (2 years out of undergrad) so more is possible but a lot of variables.
