Why we read it this way (9)

The role is titled 'SharePoint Engineer' with no seniority level in the title — advertised seniority is Unspecified. The 8+ years requirement and scope of responsibilities (technical leadership, architecture, integration) support a Senior classification.

The posting requires an active TS/SCI clearance WITH polygraph — this is a hard gate explicitly stated under 'What You'll Need'.

A Bachelor's degree is listed but the JD explicitly accepts 'the equivalent combination of education, technical certification or training, or work/military experience,' so the degree requirement is set to None.

DoD 8570 IAT Level II compliance is a hard gate; Security+ CE is listed as the primary option with several named equivalents captured in alternatives.

Back-end programming language experience (Python, JavaScript, Java, Perl, Ruby, C++) is listed under required qualifications as a group; Python is used as the primary skill name with the others as alternatives since any one satisfies the requirement.

PowerShell scripting and Microsoft certifications (AZ-104, M365 Teams/Enterprise Admin) appear under 'Desired Skills' and are marked preferred accordingly.

The role is classified as 15-1252 (Software Developers) given the emphasis on engineering, designing, and building SharePoint solutions; 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is noted as a runner-up given the significant systems engineering, requirements analysis, and architecture documentation responsibilities.

Two work locations are listed: Annapolis Junction, MD and Sterling, VA — both fall within the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria DC-VA-MD-WV CBSA.

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.
