How this req sits in the market our data
Rare in this occupation — lead with these, and say what you built with them.
What the occupation pays Median $105,214 (middle half $87,574–$128,382). This posting is about at that midpoint.
Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.
Why we read it this way (10)
The role sits between Network/Systems Administration (15-1244) and Network Architecture (15-1241). The posting emphasizes hands-on design, deployment, and optimization of wireless infrastructure rather than high-level architecture, so 15-1244 is the primary code, with 15-1241 as a close runner-up.
CWNA certification is explicitly called 'required'; CWSP, CWDP, CCNP Wireless, and ECSE are listed as preferred.
The Skillsets section lists both ServiceNow and Jira as ticketing tools without distinguishing one as primary; they are captured as interchangeable alternatives under a single skill entry.
NetAlly is listed as 'NetAlly or Similar Wireless Performance Monitoring Tools' — alternatives populated with common peer tools in that category.
Cisco AireOS and IOS-XE are listed together as a single wireless platform skill; they are captured as alternatives of one another since the posting treats them as a combined Cisco wireless technology requirement.
A Bachelor's degree is listed but the posting explicitly accepts 'equivalent professional experience,' so the degree requirement is set to None.
Leadership/mentoring experience is noted as preferred in the Experience section — no specific technology is named, so it is not captured as a skill.
This is an onsite contract role in Beaverton, OR (Portland metro CBSA).
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): WiFi design and optimization, Network troubleshooting.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
