Why we read it this way (7)
The role is titled 'Full Stack Engineer' but the actual day-to-day work is dominated by infrastructure integration, VM environments, hardware lifecycle, networking (DNS/DHCP/LDAP/PKI), and DevOps/IaC — much closer to systems/network administration (15-1244) than application software development (15-1252). The SOC classification is Medium confidence given the 'Full Stack' title.
No specific work location is stated in the posting beyond references to a Lockheed Martin facility and occasional travel to UAE customer sites. The salary range is quoted for several named states (CA, MA, NY, CO, HI, IL, MD, MN, NJ, VT, WA, DC); no single CBSA could be determined.
The role is part-time remote/telework (hybrid), not fully remote — remote is set to false.
The Secret clearance is a hard gate: the posting states 'This position requires a government security clearance at the Secret level; you must be a US Citizen for consideration.' Candidates must be able to obtain it at minimum.
VMware Tanzu containerization and Security+ Certification appear only under 'Desired Skills' and are therefore preferred.
Infrastructure documentation experience (rack elevations, cable maps, network diagrams, SWaP analyses, etc.) is listed as a Basic Qualification but names no specific tool, so it was omitted from the skills list per extraction rules.
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.
