How this req sits in the market our data
What the occupation pays Median $132,021 (middle half $99,961–$167,095).
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 (7)
Location is not specified in the posting; the role supports a DoD program (JTMS) and likely requires on-site or hybrid presence given the Secret clearance requirement, but no city or state is stated.
The Bachelor's degree appears only under 'Preferred Skills', so it is not treated as a hard requirement.
CyberArk PAM is mentioned in both the Responsibilities section (as a task to support) and the Preferred Skills section (as a preferred qualification); it is treated as preferred since the Preferred Skills heading governs the explicit qualification gate.
DoD 8140.03M DCWF Basic Tier Certification with CEH is listed as a hard requirement in Minimum Requirements; Intermediate-tier certifications (CEH-P, GSEC, Security+, etc.) appear only under Preferred Skills.
The 3–5 year range maps to a Mid-level role on the standard career ladder; the title carries no explicit seniority label.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): NIST SP 800-53.
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.
