Why we read it this way (6)
This role sits at the boundary between software/platform engineering (15-1252) and systems/infrastructure administration (15-1244). The primary day-to-day work — architecting, configuring, and maintaining SharePoint, Drupal, and Azure application environments — leans toward application platform engineering, so 15-1252 was chosen; 15-1244 is a credible runner-up given the heavy server and infrastructure administration duties.
The posting requires the ability to obtain and maintain a Public Trust, which is a federal suitability determination, not a formal security clearance — no clearance gate was set.
The '5+ years' experience requirements appear across multiple specific technologies (SharePoint on-premises, Nintex K2, Drupal in Azure, FISMA A&A); the overall years minimum is set to 5 as the floor across these parallel requirements.
The 'Preferred Technical Skills' section at the bottom of the posting lists many tools already captured under required qualifications (e.g. SharePoint versions, Drupal, Azure, NSGs, F5 WAF). Items appearing exclusively or primarily in the Preferred Qualifications section (Azure App Services, Key Vault, Private Link, Entra ID, CI/CD, PowerShell, .NET, NIST 800-53, Agile/Scrum) are marked preferred.
Microsoft Entra ID appears in both the Preferred Qualifications section and the 'Preferred Technical Skills' list — treated as preferred throughout.
The posting explicitly states 'W2 opportunity only' and does not sponsor work visas.
