Why we read it this way (9)
The posting is for a Wisconsin state government contract engagement (Programmer-Analyst IV classification); WI residency or willingness to relocate within 30 days is required, though the role is 90–100% remote.
The 5-year experience demands are stated explicitly for four skill areas in the 'Top skills' section: UI customization/optimization, Groovy and Java programming, workflow/business process mapping, and data governance/data management. Java and Groovy are the concrete named technologies extracted from those requirements.
Collibra is the central platform the role administers and customizes — named throughout the project description as the primary work environment — and is treated as a hard gate despite not appearing in a formal 'Required' bullet list.
Flowable BPMN (with Activiti listed as an interchangeable variant) and Eclipse are named as current stack technologies in the project description; they are captured as required given the role's primary focus on configuring and administering these tools.
API configuration is described as a core responsibility ('configuring APIs to support the administration of Collibra'); REST is the canonical skill name used here.
Python is explicitly listed under 'Nice to have skills' and described as 'highly complementary' in the project narrative.
Data governance/data management experience is a stated 5-year requirement but names no specific tool or platform, so it is not emitted as a skill (no concrete named technology); it is reflected in the alternative occupation consideration toward 15-1243.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
