I have a foreign university degree and a job offer with gross pay of €54000. Do I need Federal Employment Agency approval, or can I apply for the visa directly?

That will be done during the application process. The Consulat will pass the application to the Ausländerbehörde for approval. The Ausländerbehörde will ask the Employment Agency before approving.– Mark JohnsonJan 30 '20 at 9:52

It depends not only on one's salary, but also on his/her job and education. See, for example, notes on this question for Berlin:
Approval of the German Federal Employment Agency. You need the approval of the Federal Employment Agency if you
- work in a shortage occupation and
- earn less than EUR 4,600 gross per month and
- do not have a degree from a German university.
