Why we read it this way (9)
The role blends infrastructure automation and software development (IaC, scripting, CI/CD pipeline work) with systems operations, making it a genuine hybrid between 15-1252 Software Developers and 15-1244 Network and Computer Systems Administrators. It is classified as 15-1252 because the primary deliverables — writing Terraform/Ansible code, scripting in Python/Bash/Go, and building deployment automation — constitute shipping software rather than merely operating existing systems.
A TS/SCI with CI Polygraph is an explicit hard gate stated under Minimum Qualifications.
The experience requirement is tiered: 5 years + Bachelor's, 3 years + Master's, or 9 years + High School diploma. The minimum years across all paths is 3, but the most common path (Bachelor's) requires 5 years; the overall years minimum is set to 5 accordingly. No single degree level is universally required across all paths, so the degree requirement is set to None.
Python, Bash, and Go are listed as interchangeable scripting language options ('such as … or'); all three are captured with each listed as an alternative to the others.
Terraform and Ansible are listed as examples of configuration management tools ('such as'); they are captured as separate required skills with each listed as an alternative to the other, reflecting that either satisfies the stated requirement.
Git and Flux are listed together under 'Familiarity with' in the Minimum Qualifications section; despite the softer verb, their placement in the required qualifications block makes them hard gates.
DoD 8140/8570 compliance certification (e.g., Security+) is required or must be obtainable before start; this is a certification requirement rather than a named technology skill and is not emitted as a skill.
Diode appears in the Preferred Requirements section alongside EKS and CI/CD but is a niche/proprietary term without a clear canonical technology identity; it is omitted rather than emitted with an uncertain meaning.
Requires a TS/SCI clearance — the cleared population is a small fraction of this occupation, so the real candidate pool is materially smaller than the estimate below, which does not model clearance.
