We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.

Why we read it this way (9)

The title 'Software Engineer Asc Mgr' (Associate Manager) and the explicit people-management responsibilities — workforce management, recruitment, terminations, performance and compensation management — make this primarily a people-management role, driving the 11-3021 classification. However, the role also carries hands-on software integration and Control Account Manager duties, so 15-1252 is a genuine runner-up.

The job title carries no standard seniority level word (Asc Mgr is a Lockheed Martin internal grade, not a standard band), so the title states no level.

Location is not specified in the posting beyond 'a designated Lockheed Martin facility'; the salary range references multiple states. No single CBSA can be determined.

The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's degree … or equivalent combination of education and related experience,' which means equivalent experience is accepted in lieu of a degree — the degree requirement is therefore None.

The salary range quoted ($113,900–$200,905) applies specifically to California, Massachusetts, New York (excluding most major metro areas), Colorado, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, Vermont, Washington, and Washington DC; other locations may differ.

Skills listed under 'Desired Skills' (Agile, subcontractor management, program planning, etc.) are preferred, not required gates. 'Software systems integration' and 'Earned Value Management / Cost Account Management' appear in the Basic Qualifications section and are treated as hard requirements.

No specific named technologies or tools are required or preferred beyond the management/process methodologies listed; the posting is light on concrete technical stack details.

Ignored 3 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Earned Value Management, subcontractor management, program planning.

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.
