What this job asks for AI summary
This role centers on migrating a legacy Microsoft Access database application (TEDB) to a modern React-based web application for a U.S. Navy Tactical Data Link program. The work spans the full stack — front-end component development, REST API design, backend business logic, authentication, reporting, and testing — with close collaboration alongside Navy users, database engineers, and cybersecurity personnel. It suits a developer with production React and JavaScript experience who is comfortable working across both UI and API layers on a government program.

How this req sits in the market our data
Rare in this occupation — lead with these, and say what you built with them.
Most people in this occupation already list these. Still required — just not what gets you shortlisted.

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 (9)
The posting is titled 'Web Developer' but the actual scope — full-stack React front-end, REST API/backend services, SQL database integration, authentication, CI/CD, and testing — describes a Software Developer role; 15-1252 is the better fit, with 15-1254 as the runner-up given the title.
The back-end technology requirement is framed as 'familiarity with at least one' of Java, Spring, Node.js, Python, Django, or Flask — a single hard gate on the capability, with the named tools as interchangeable alternatives.
CompTIA Security+ CE (DoD 8570/8140 IAT II) is explicitly listed as a certification requirement in the required qualifications block, making it a hard gate.
An active Secret clearance is explicitly required ('Active Secret clearance required').
The role is hybrid with partial on-site in San Diego, CA — not fully remote.
The salary range ($81,349–$109,250/year) is described as a 'likely' range, not a guarantee.
All skills under 'Desired Qualifications' are marked preferred, including TypeScript, React Router, PostgreSQL/SQL Server, Docker, Linux, CI/CD, Maven, NPM, GitLab/GitHub, SQL Server Reporting Services, and IBM DOORS.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): SQL Server Reporting Services.
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.
