Why we read it this way (10)
This is a Systems Engineering / Systems Integration role in the defense/aerospace domain — it does not map cleanly to any single BLS computer/mathematical SOC. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used as the closest fit; 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is a plausible runner-up given the requirements/ICD and integration analysis work.
The Basic Qualifications list no specific degree requirement — a Bachelor's degree appears only under Desired Skills, so the degree requirement is set to None.
No overall years-of-experience floor is stated in the posting; the salary range ($73K–$129K) and 'Experienced Professional' label suggest a mid-level role, but the posting does not gate on a specific year count.
The salary range quoted ($73,400–$129,260) applies specifically to Colorado (and several other named states); the posting notes the range may differ for other locations.
An active or current Secret clearance is a hard gate in Basic Qualifications; candidates must also be US citizens.
The 'Automation Framework' skill appears only under Desired Skills and is therefore preferred.
The Basic Qualifications list Systems Integration functions as an 'or' across four sub-areas (trade studies/modeling, requirements/ICD, integration/test/verification, test planning/execution) — the role requires experience with at least one of these, but all four are captured as required skills since the JD presents them as the gating capability set.
Travel up to 25% is required per Basic Qualifications; this is not captured as a skill but is a notable role constraint.
Ignored 4 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Requirements development, System modeling, Test planning, Test execution.
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.
