Why we read it this way (7)
The TS/SCI with Polygraph clearance is an explicit hard gate stated under Required Experience.
The degree requirement accepts equivalent experience in lieu of a Bachelor's, so no minimum degree is flagged.
The 8+ years figure is the lower bound of the stated range (8+ years with a Bachelor's, or 6+ years with a Master's); total minimum is set to 8.
All specific named technologies (GitLab, Jira, AWS, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Ansible, monitoring tools) appear exclusively under the 'Desired Experience' section, which the posting explicitly frames as optional ('even if you do not have any of the following experience').
The required skills section names DevOps practices, infrastructure provisioning/automation, and CI/CD conceptually but does not name specific tools — those are captured as preferred from the Desired section.
No work location is specified in the posting; given the TS/SCI + polygraph requirement, the role is almost certainly on-site at a cleared facility, but the specific metro cannot be determined from the text.
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.
