The work spans architectural design, Ansible/Terraform automation, Kerberized security, incident leadership, and capacity planning for multi-tenant distributed platforms serving multiple downstream teams.

Why we read it this way (9)
The role is titled 'Senior Site Reliability Engineer' and involves substantial automation and platform-engineering code (Ansible/Terraform frameworks, Python/Ruby/Bash scripting, CI/CD-style automation treated as production software), which tips the classification toward 15-1252 Software Developers over 15-1244 (ops/admin). However, the role also has a strong operational/infrastructure-operations dimension (incident leadership, capacity modeling, Kerberized environment operations), making 15-1244 a credible runner-up.
HDFS, YARN, and HBase are listed together as a single 'or similar systems' group in the required experience section; they are emitted as one skill (HDFS) with YARN and HBase as alternatives. Kafka and Storm are listed in the same sentence but are distinct streaming/processing technologies and are emitted separately.
The clearance requirement states 'U.S. Citizenship required and eligibility for a Federal Security Clearance' without specifying the level. 'Eligibility for a Federal Security Clearance' most commonly refers to a Secret-level clearance in healthcare/government IT contexts; TopSecret was not specified. Classified as Secret — if the actual level is higher, this should be updated.
The degree requirement states 'BS or MS in Computer Science, or equivalent,' which accepts equivalent experience in lieu of a degree, so the degree requirement is set to None.
The posted salary range ($79,100–$158,200/year) is notably wide and Oracle explicitly notes it accounts for geography, experience, and equity — consistent with a national remote posting.
Oracle Big Data Service (BDS) appears in the narrative description of the team's stack rather than in the formal required-experience list, so it is marked preferred.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Oracle Big Data Service.
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.
