What this job asks for AI summary
A full-stack software engineering role focused on building and maintaining web and software systems for national security customers. Day-to-day work involves writing Java and JavaScript/TypeScript code, interpreting mission requirements, and integrating continuous delivery practices. The role suits engineers comfortable working across a broad technology stack — including frameworks, containerization tools, and databases — on a geographically distributed team. An active TS/SCI clearance with polygraph is mandatory.

Why we read it this way (7)
The role lists three possible work locations: Warrenton, VA; Denver, CO; and Fort Meade, MD. The primary CBSA is reported as Washington-Arlington-Alexandria (DC-VA-MD-WV), which covers both Warrenton and Fort Meade; Denver is a secondary option.
TS/SCI with polygraph (CI or Full Scope) is explicitly required with 'NO EXCEPTIONS' — this is a hard gate.
Java and JavaScript/TypeScript are called out as hard requirements with 'no exceptions' in both the Role and Education sections.
All other languages and technologies (Python, Angular, React, Elasticsearch, Redis, REST, Docker/LXC, Kubernetes, Helm, Machine Learning, Data Analytics, Android, NoSQL, SQL, Xmidas) are listed under 'desired' in the Education section and are treated as preferred. Machine Learning, Data Analytics, Android development, and Xmidas were omitted from skills as they are either generic concepts or an extremely niche/proprietary tool with no widely-known substitute.
The degree requirement is a Bachelor's in CS, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field — no 'or equivalent experience' language is present, so it is treated as a hard requirement.
No overall years-of-experience floor is stated; the broad salary range ($160K–$258K) and the TS/SCI + poly requirement suggest a wide seniority band, but the scope of work (full-stack, mission-critical, independent problem solving) supports a Senior classification.
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.
