Most people in this occupation already list these. Still required — just not what gets you shortlisted.

What the occupation pays Median $131,346 (middle half $98,479–$152,931). 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 Aug 20, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (7)

The programming/scripting language requirement is stated as 'proficiency in at least one' from two groups: compiled languages (C, C++, Java) and scripting languages (Python, Perl, JavaScript, Tcl). These are captured as two interchangeable-option skills rather than separate hard gates for each language.

The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's Degree and 3+ years' experience or combination,' meaning equivalent experience is accepted in lieu of a degree — degree is not a hard gate.

A DoD Secret clearance (or the ability to obtain one) is a hard requirement. The posting does not require an active clearance at start.

RBC experience is listed under Desired and noted as 'extremely desired'; it is not a named commercial technology and has been omitted as it names no specific tool.

SCN (Satellite Control Network) experience is listed as a plus under Desired.

The salary range ($69,100–$141,500/year) is wide and explicitly noted by the employer as influenced by contract labor categories, location, and experience — not a single market rate.

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.
