Why we read it this way (7)
The JD states 'Bachelor's with 15 years (or commensurate experience)' — because equivalent experience is explicitly accepted in lieu of a degree, the degree requirement is set to None.
The clearance gate is 'Ability to obtain and maintain a suitability/Public Trust' — a Public Trust is not a national-security clearance (Confidential/Secret/TS), so the clearance requirement is set to None.
JMeter and LoadRunner appear in the required skills block despite also being referenced in the responsibilities narrative; they are treated as hard gates accordingly.
GitHub, Section 508/WCAG 2.0, CI/CD, and Agile appear only in the responsibilities narrative or as contextual stack detail rather than in the explicit required-skills list, so they are marked preferred.
The 'Preferred Skills' section lists 'Selenium WebDrive' (apparent typo for Selenium WebDriver) alongside soft skills only — no additional named technologies beyond what is already required.
The title carries no seniority level word; the title states no level. However, the 15-year experience requirement and broad end-to-end QA ownership support a Senior classification.
Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
