Why we read it this way (6)
Experience requirement is tiered by education: 12 years with a high school diploma, 10 years with an associate's, 8 years with a bachelor's, or 6 years with a master's. The minimum (8 years with a BS/BA) is used for the overall years minimum; no specific degree is hard-required since equivalent experience is accepted at each tier.
DoD 8570 IAT Level II certification AND CCNA are both listed as hard requirements under Required Qualifications. CCNA is captured as a required skill; IAT II is a certification category rather than a named tool and is omitted from the skills list per schema rules.
DoW 8140 Work Role Code 441 compliance (Network Operations Specialist – Intermediate or higher) by October 2026 is listed under Desired Qualifications, so it is treated as preferred rather than a current hard gate.
CCNP and CCIE are listed together as examples of 'high-level vendor certifications' under Desired Qualifications; they are captured as a single preferred skill with CCIE as an alternative.
Python and Ansible appear together under Desired Qualifications as scripting/automation examples; both are captured separately as preferred skills given they are distinct tools.
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.
