Why we read it this way (9)
This is listed as an unfunded/contingency position — a Conditional Offer Letter will be extended, with employment contingent on the position being fully funded and a vacancy existing.
The minimum education requirement is High School with 10+ years of experience; a Bachelor's degree is listed only under Preferred Skills, so no formal degree is hard-required.
GCP and Azure appear together in the Required Skills section; both are captured as hard gates. AWS appears only under Preferred Skills.
'Containerization technologies' and 'microservice network architecture' are listed in Required Skills but name no specific product — captured at the capability level since no specific tool is named.
GemOne and Chimera management platforms are mentioned in the responsibilities narrative as operational tools used by the SME; they are not listed as gated requirements and are omitted from the skills list accordingly.
The role sits at the boundary between Computer Network Architects (15-1241) and Network/Systems Administrators (15-1244) — it involves both architectural design and significant hands-on operational/sustaining engineering. 15-1241 is chosen because the title and primary framing emphasize design, architecture, and automation development.
Physical/medical fitness for OCONUS military deployment and possession of a valid U.S. Driver's License are listed as hard requirements but are non-technical and therefore not captured as skills.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): DoD 8570 IAT Level II, microservice network architecture.
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.
