Why we read it this way (5)
The title 'Lead Software Developer' implies a leadership function, but the role is clearly hands-on (coding + managing projects), so it is classified as Senior rather than Staff or Principal.
The posting states candidates must be US citizens and able to obtain a public trust clearance. Public trust is a federal suitability determination, not a formal security clearance level (Confidential/Secret/TS), so the clearance requirement is set to None — but hiring managers should be aware US citizenship and public trust eligibility are hard gates.
The technology stack is listed as a single block covering multiple distinct environments (.NET/IIS on-prem Windows, Java/WebLogic/Oracle, Business Objects, Infosphere, Azure, Cloud.gov/AWS). All items are treated as required since they appear under the 'Technology Stack' and 'Required' sections of the posting.
The degree requirement is stated as 'Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or a related field' in the explicit 'Required' section, overriding the earlier mention of 'equivalent combination of education and/or experience' — the stricter gate is used.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
