Everyone on the same level gets the same base pay … I am the only senior.
So you’re not on the same level, so you get paid more? Except you don’t? That’s a contradiction.
I’d start applying and interviewing elsewhere, and once you have an offer, decide which one you’d rather do. If you’re not happy where you’re at, don’t wait, start making a plan B now
They said it's not a tech firm. I'd guess there is nobody else in the firm who understands anything that team does, and therefore there is an assumption that all developers are interchangeable.
Every firm is a tech firm if they have developers, it's just a question of if their tech generates revenue or is just a cost. Either way they need to pay developer rates, and have a developer seniority structure.

Yeah they have probably one pay level for "developers" and that's it.
