Why we read it this way (7)
The posting lists a Secret clearance as a hard requirement in the required section, while Top Secret clearance appears in the nice-to-have/preferred section. The clearance requirement field reflects the hard gate (Secret); TS is flagged as preferred.
A Bachelor's degree in IT or STEM is listed as required; a Master's degree appears only in the preferred/nice-to-have section.
Location is not specified in the posting — likely a federal/DoD site but no city or state is named. CBSA left blank.
The role title says 'Network Engineer' but the day-to-day work (configuring/maintaining routers, switches, firewalls, VPNs, STIG compliance, Level 2-3 support) is primarily network operations and administration, making 15-1244 the best fit. 15-1241 (Computer Network Architects) is a reasonable runner-up given the design and engineering framing in the title.
DoD background is listed as a required qualifier but names no specific technology or tool, so it is not captured as a skill.
The physical requirement (lift up to 40 lbs) appears in the required section but is not a technology skill and is omitted from the skills list.
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.
