Why we read it this way (7)
The role title is 'Cloud Architect' with no seniority modifier, but the requirements are relatively light (only 2+ years of cloud production experience required), suggesting a mid-to-senior practitioner rather than a principal-level architect. Seniority is assessed as Senior given the breadth of design, migration, and cross-team responsibilities.
US Citizenship is explicitly required and the candidate must be able to obtain a public trust clearance. A public trust is a background investigation, not a formal security clearance (Confidential/Secret/TS), so the clearance requirement is set to None — but hiring managers should note this citizenship and suitability requirement.
Terraform (or AWS CloudFormation), Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, and source control all appear under 'Preferred Qualifications' and are treated as preferred accordingly.
The degree (Computer Science, Engineering, or related field) is listed under Preferred Qualifications only, so no minimum degree is required.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
The role is hybrid (3 days onsite in Mechanicsburg, PA); local candidates are strongly preferred, so remote is set to false.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): NIST SP 800-53.
