Why we read it this way (7)
Clearance: the JD requires the ability to obtain and maintain a Public Trust — not a Secret clearance. Public Trust is a federal suitability determination, not a formal DoD clearance level; the closest available enum value 'Secret' overstates the gate. Flagged here so reviewers are aware the actual requirement is Public Trust suitability.
Degree: the JD states 'Bachelor's degree … or equivalent practical experience', so no hard degree gate is set.
Appian certification: the JD requires 'Appian Certified Associate or Senior Developer' — either satisfies the gate; both are captured as alternatives on a single required skill. The Lead Developer designation appears only under Preferred Skills.
The 3+ years figure is specifically tied to Appian platform experience, which also serves as the role-level minimum; total experience floor is set to 3 years accordingly.
FISMA, NIST, and Section 508 appear only under Preferred Skills and Qualifications.
Requires a Secret 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.
