Why we read it this way (10)

The posting states 'REMOTE (MUST BE IN THE DC-MD-VA AREA)' but the caller has declared this a fully-remote, national-pool role; metro has been left blank and remote=true per caller instruction.

The engagement is explicitly short-term (7+ months) with potential extension — classified as Contract.

Public Trust eligibility is required (not a formal US security clearance), so the clearance requirement is set to None; the US citizenship requirement is captured in the notes.

Compensation is stated as 'dependent upon the candidate's skills, experience, education and certifications' — no figures provided.

ServiceNow module experience (ITSM, CSM, CMDB, Service Catalog, SPM/PPM, FSM) is listed in the Responsibilities section; all are treated as required given the strong 'implement and manage' framing and the 7+ years ServiceNow Developer gate.

MySQL/SQL appears in the Qualifications section as 'MySQL/SQL' — emitted as MySQL with common SQL-server alternatives; Java also appears in Qualifications and is treated as required.

ServiceNow Certified System Administrator certification is explicitly marked 'preferred' in the posting.

No third-party vendors and US citizenship are hard eligibility gates stated in the posting header, but cannot be represented as skills fields.

Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.

Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
