Why we read it this way (10)
The job location is not specified in the posting; CACI is headquartered in Reston, VA, but no metro is explicitly stated. The CBSA field has been left blank accordingly.
The TS/SCI requirement is specifically called out as 'TS/SCI CI Poly' (Counterintelligence Polygraph), which maps to TopSecretSci.
The 10-year overall experience requirement is the binding the overall years minimum; the 8-year architecture diagram requirement is captured on the Enterprise Architecture skill.
SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role is primarily an enterprise/systems architect designing and integrating a COTS platform (ServiceNow), which fits 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) best, though 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is a reasonable runner-up given the specialized 'Architect' framing.
BA/BS degree is listed under 'Required' qualifications, so it is treated as a hard requirement.
Certifications (ITIL 4, CSA, CTA/CMA, TOGAF, DoD Architecture Framework v2.0, AWS Certified Solutions Architect) are all listed under 'Desired' and are marked as preferred.
ServiceNow developer certification (CSA) appears in both the Desired section and as a parenthetical note — it is treated as preferred throughout.
The salary range ($120,800–$265,800/year) is stated as a proposed range with explicit caveats about geographic and contract factors.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Enterprise Architecture.
Requires a TS/SCI 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.
