What the occupation pays Median $138,970 (middle half $107,524–$175,762). This posting is about at that midpoint.

Why we read it this way (5)

The role title is plain 'Application Developer' with no seniority modifier. The 5–7 years experience requirement and scope (independent delivery, stakeholder-facing, minimal supervision) support a Mid-level classification rather than Senior, as the work is largely maintenance and enhancement of existing legacy systems without clear org-wide or cross-team architectural ownership.

Degree requirement is listed as 'Bachelor's degree … or equivalent work experience,' so no hard degree gate is set.

Git/GitHub and VS Code appear in the responsibilities narrative as part of a modernization initiative the candidate is expected to drive — not in the formal Required Skills section — so they are marked preferred.

Insurance claims/workflow experience and knowledge of insurance industry processes are listed under a separate 'Qualifications' section framed as additional context rather than hard gates, and are omitted from the skills list as they name no specific technology or tool.

The alt SOC (15-1242 Database Administrators) is noted because a meaningful portion of the role involves database development across MS Access and OpenEdge Progress, though application development in RPGLE/VB is the primary framing.
