Why we read it this way (9)
The posting is titled 'Cyber Support Developer, Senior' and is framed around software development (custom development, third-party integrations, unit testing, code migration), but the only concrete named technology required is ServiceNow — making SOC classification a judgment call between Software Developers (15-1252) and Computer Systems Analysts (15-1211). The ServiceNow-centric work (configuration, reports development, data migration, integrations) leans toward application development, so 15-1252 is the primary pick.
A TS/SCI with CI Polygraph clearance is explicitly required — this is a hard gate.
The Certified ServiceNow Administrator (CSA) certification is listed as a hard requirement. It is captured both as a skill (the platform) and as a certification requirement.
The degree requirement is effectively None: the JD explicitly accepts '4+ additional years of software development experience in lieu of a degree,' making the Bachelor's degree non-mandatory.
The 5+ years of software development experience is the primary role-level gate (the overall years minimum of 5). The additional '2+ years supporting large, complex software development projects' is a sub-requirement within that experience and is not separately surfaced as a distinct skill.
No work location (city, state, or CBSA) is specified in the posting beyond an Intelligence Community customer context. The role is almost certainly on-site at a cleared facility, but the specific location is not disclosed.
No compensation figures are provided.
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.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
