We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.
Why we read it this way (8)
The posting lists multiple office locations (Fairfax, VA; Lebanon, VA; Lafayette, LA; Knoxville, TN); Knoxville, TN is used as the primary CBSA per the posting's listed 'Main location.' The role is hybrid (2 days/week in a CGI Federal office), not fully remote.
The clearance requirement is the ability to obtain a DHS EOD/Public Trust clearance — this is a suitability determination, not a formal US security clearance level (Confidential/Secret/TS), so the clearance requirement is set to None.
U.S. citizenship is a hard gate explicitly stated in the required qualifications.
The 9-year minimum applies specifically to SAP security administration experience; a separate 5-year minimum is stated for leading major IT programs — the higher figure (9 years) is used as the overall years minimum.
SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud, SAP RISE, and Agile/Scrum appear in the role description narrative rather than the formal required qualifications section, so they are treated as preferred.
SoD concepts and SAP Security Certification appear explicitly under 'Desired qualifications' and are marked preferred accordingly.
The alternative occupation code 15-1299 is noted because this role blends application security administration with GRC consulting, making it a close call between Information Security Analysts (15-1212) and the broader Computer Occupations catch-all; 15-1212 is the stronger fit given the security design and compliance focus.
Ignored 3 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): SAP role-based authorization, SAP user administration, SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud.
