Why we read it this way (6)

The JD requires candidates to be able to obtain and maintain a Federal Public Trust — this is a suitability determination, not a formal security clearance (Confidential/Secret/TS), so the clearance requirement is set to None.

React appears in the responsibilities/narrative section ('Build responsive user interfaces…utilizing technologies such as AngularJS, React, HTML5, CSS') rather than in a dedicated requirements block; it is listed alongside AngularJS as illustrative options, so it is treated as preferred.

AngularJS, HTML5, CSS, XML/JSON, and REST are listed together under the 'What you'll bring' requirements section and are treated as hard gates.

ServiceNow certifications (CSA, CAD) and Now Assist/AI experience are explicitly listed under 'Preferred Qualifications'.

The 5+ years figure is tied specifically to ServiceNow platform development experience and also serves as the role-level experience gate (the overall years minimum of 5).

Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
