Why we read it this way (8)
Location is not specified in the posting. The role supports a US Federal Government program (TAK Product Center), so it is almost certainly US-based, but no city, state, or remote status is stated. Remote is marked false as a conservative default for a cleared Federal program role.
Clearance: the JD requires an active T3 (Tier 3 / Secret-level) investigation and the ability to obtain further clearances. This maps to a Secret clearance gate.
The degree requirement accepts 'equivalent combination of education, professional training or work experience,' so no formal degree is hard-gated.
AWS is listed as 'preferred' within the cloud computing requirement ('AWS preferred'), but the broader cloud computing experience is itself required. AWS is captured as the primary named tool with alternatives, reflecting that the cloud platform requirement is a hard gate even though the specific vendor is flexible.
The containerization requirement names no specific tool (Docker, Kubernetes, etc.); common substitutes are listed in alternatives.
CEH certification and AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner appear under 'Desired Qualifications' and are preferred accordingly.
The role sits between SRE/DevOps (code-writing, CI/CD pipeline work) and systems/network administration (patching, monitoring, incident response). SRE/DevOps automation and pipeline work is the primary framing, so 15-1252 is chosen; 15-1244 is the runner-up given the 3+ years systems/network administration requirement.
Requires a Secret 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.
