Yes, and it has to be of a special "intellectual" nature (for lack of 
better terms). I would think just a fancy job title, but no duties to 
reflect it, would not stand a chance at all if the employee would 
legally challenge their supposedly exempt status.

Anyways, 
http://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/Glossary.asp?Button1=E#employee%20in%20the%20computer%20software%20field
explains it fairly well.

"The employee's hourly rate of pay is not less than $41.00 [the rate in 
effect on September 19, 2000]". The rate according to their provided pdf 
is not less than $37.94 or not less than $79050.- annually.
