Why we read it this way (7)
An active TS/SCI with Polygraph is a hard requirement — this will significantly constrain the candidate pool.
The degree requirement accepts 4+ years of additional IT experience in lieu of a Bachelor's degree, so no formal degree is strictly required.
The scripting language requirement lists JavaScript, Python, Ruby, Perl, and Bash as interchangeable options ('at least one such as'); JavaScript is listed as the primary with the others as alternatives.
DoD 8570 IAT Level II certification (e.g., Security+ CE) is listed under Minimum Qualifications but candidates may obtain it within six months of hire — it is still treated as a hard gate since the JD explicitly requires it or the ability to obtain it.
The alt SOC 15-1299 reflects that ServiceNow-specific development sits at the boundary between general software development and platform/low-code administration; the primary SOC 15-1252 was chosen because the role emphasizes custom development, integrations, and scripting.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): DoD 8570 IAT Level II.
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.
