Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (9)

The role is classified as a Software Developer (15-1252) rather than a Data/Database Architect (15-1243) because the primary day-to-day work involves hands-on design, development, and implementation of cloud integration pipelines and REST APIs — shipping code — rather than pure data architecture. The runner-up is 15-1243 given the heavy data engineering emphasis (ADF, Databricks, ADLS Gen2, ETL/ELT).

The JD states 'Bachelor's degree … or equivalent experience,' so no formal degree is hard-gated.

The posting notes that selected candidates must complete fingerprinting and a background check at a government facility, but no specific US security clearance level is stated as a requirement.

Azure API Management, Azure Functions, Azure Event Grid, Azure Event Hubs, and Azure Service Bus appear under the 'Additional Qualifications' section alongside desirable certifications, so they are treated as preferred rather than required.

Microsoft Azure certifications (Azure Developer Associate, Azure Solutions Architect Expert, Azure Data Engineer Associate) are explicitly described as 'highly desirable' under Additional Qualifications and are not emitted as skills since they are credentials rather than concrete technologies.

NIST/FISMA/FedRAMP compliance knowledge is mentioned under Additional Qualifications as preferred context but names no specific tool or platform, so it is omitted per the skills extraction rules.

No compensation figures are provided in the posting.

Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2, Azure API Management.

This posting reads as a fully-remote role, so it was scored against the national candidate pool rather than a single metro.
