What the occupation pays Median $138,970 (middle half $107,524–$175,762). 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 Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (11)

Location is not specified in the posting beyond 'Continental US' travel; no specific metro or state can be determined.

The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent experience' — because equivalent experience is explicitly accepted, the degree requirement is set to None.

The 7-year minimum and the 3-year IaC sub-requirement are both stated in the Required section. The 3 years is applied to Helm and Ansible as the named IaC tools.

The core stack is framed as 'Python/Django/React OR Node.js/HTML5/CSS3/JavaScript' — Python/Django/React is captured as the primary with Node.js as an alternative on Python; HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript are listed separately as they are distinct technologies both stacks share.

AI-assisted development tools are required; GitHub Copilot is listed as the primary with Claude Code as an alternative per the 'or similar' framing.

Docker and Podman are presented as interchangeable ('Docker and/or Podman'); Docker is primary with Podman as the alternative.

Active TS/SCI clearance is listed under Desired, not Required; the hard gate is an active Secret clearance.

CI/CD automation frameworks, modern UI/UX design, PLM/ERM platforms, and cloud-native development all appear under the Desired section.

The salary range ($113,200–$237,800/year) is very wide, which CACI attributes to factors including geographic location and contract labor categories.

Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): UI/UX design.

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.
