Why we read it this way (7)
The title 'VDI Systems Administrator' carries no explicit seniority level, but the responsibilities (SME, coaching junior staff, strategic leadership) and the 8+ years experience requirement clearly support a Senior classification.
The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's degree and/or 8+ years of overall related experience' with equivalent experience accepted in lieu of a degree — the degree requirement is therefore set to None.
Security+ CE is listed as an example of a qualifying DoD 8570 IAT Level II certification; both are captured as required skills since they represent the same gate.
The alt SOC (15-1212 Information Security Analysts) was considered given the cybersecurity firm context and DoD 8570 requirement, but the primary day-to-day work is operating and administering VDI/server infrastructure, making 15-1244 the better fit.
Fort Meade, MD falls within the Baltimore-Columbia-Towson, MD CBSA (12580); the position is explicitly onsite 5 days/week.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): DoD 8570 IAT Level II.
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.
