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 (10)

This is a contract (yearly engagement with annual renewal option) at 35 hours/week — part-time hours but framed as a contractor assignment; the employment type is set to Contract accordingly.

US Citizenship is explicitly required ('MUST'); no security clearance is mentioned.

The role is hybrid: 2 days on-site in Rockville, MD and 3 days remote, with the remote location restricted to the DMV area — not fully remote.

The CBSA is the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria metro (DC-VA-MD-WV), as the office is in Rockville, MD.

All skills are drawn from the 'Technical Skills' section, which functions as the requirements block. Blazor, React, and Angular are listed together as interchangeable modern UI framework options.

GitHub and Azure DevOps are listed as interchangeable ('GitHub or Azure DevOps') — captured as one skill with the alternative noted.

AI agent experience and prompt engineering are mentioned in the Technical Skills section but name no specific standalone tool beyond Azure OpenAI and Azure AI Foundry, which are already captured.

No compensation range is stated in the posting.

Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Azure API Management.

Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
