Why we read it this way (6)

The posting is on-site in Bethesda/Rockville, MD — mapped to the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria CBSA, which covers that area.

A BS in Computer Science is listed as a requirement but is immediately qualified by 'or equivalent experience', so the degree requirement is set to None.

No salary figures are provided; the posting states only 'competitive salary commensurate with experience and location.'

The role has a meaningful identity/security focus (OAuth, OIDC, SAML, federated identity, IAM integration), making 15-1212 Information Security Analysts a plausible runner-up, though the primary day-to-day work described is software development and integration.

JWT, Django, React, XML, and XSLT appear under a 'Qualifications' section that reads as a secondary block of desirable extras (distinct from the hard 'Requirements' block above it), so they are treated as preferred rather than required.

Relational database design and optimization knowledge is captured via the SQL and SQL Server skills rather than as a separate generic concept.
