How this req sits in the market our data
Rare in this occupation — lead with these, and say what you built with them.
Most people in this occupation already list these. Still required — just not what gets you shortlisted.
What the occupation pays Median $158,337 (middle half $126,441–$180,105).
Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Aug 20, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.
Why we read it this way (7)
The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's degree in a related field OR 6 additional years of experience in IT' — because equivalent experience is explicitly accepted, the degree requirement is set to None.
The '5+ years of experience' is stated at the role level with no specific technology named, so it is captured as the overall experience minimum rather than attached to any individual skill.
Agile/Scrum appears under Desired Skills and is listed as a preferred qualification, even though the role clearly operates in a scrum environment — the posting explicitly separates it into the secondary section.
CompTIA Security+ is mentioned in the context of DoD 8140 certification compliance, which the posting describes as a requirement for 'most' contracts rather than a hard gate for this specific role — treated as preferred.
The posting names 'Department of War (DoW)' — this appears to be an internal or informal reference to the Department of Defense; no action taken on this discrepancy.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
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.
