The experience requirement is tiered by education: 9 years with a HS diploma, 7 with an AA, 5 with a BS/BA, or 3 with an MS/MA. The overall years minimum is set to 5 (the BS/BA path), the most common baseline; the actual gate may be higher or lower depending on a candidate's education level.

DoD 8570 IAT II certification is listed as a hard requirement; the specific qualifying cert (e.g., Security+, CISSP) is not named.
Red Hat Linux experience is explicitly called 'a plus' in the Required Qualifications section, making it preferred despite its placement near required items.
MCSA/Microsoft Certified Associate and VMware VCA appear under Desired Qualifications and are preferred.
The posting also notes a DoD 8140 Work Role Code 451 (Systems Administrator Intermediate) compliance requirement by 1 Oct 2026, listed under Desired Qualifications.
