Why we read it this way (9)
No work location or metro area is specified in the posting; the CBSA is left blank. Given the TS/SCI with Polygraph requirement, the role is almost certainly on-site at a cleared facility, likely in the Washington DC area, but this cannot be confirmed from the text alone.
The SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role is framed as software development but places notable emphasis on systems analysis (translating functional requirements, designing information systems, documenting architecture), which could also fit 15-1211 Computer Systems Analysts.
Seniority is assessed as Mid despite 4+ years required: the posting carries no senior-level title, and 4 years is a standard mid-level gate. The mentorship responsibility is noted but not sufficient alone to push to Senior.
AWS, Azure, and Google Compute Engine are listed together as interchangeable IaaS options in the required section; AWS is used as the primary with the others as alternatives.
Docker, LXC, and Rocket are listed as interchangeable containerization options in the required section; Docker is used as the primary.
Ansible, Puppet, Chef, and Salt are listed as interchangeable configuration management tools under Desired Experience; Ansible is used as the primary.
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) appears under Desired Experience with no specific tool named; Terraform is listed as the most common representative alternative.
Cloud-native monitoring and logging tools are mentioned under Desired Experience but name no specific product, so no skill entry is emitted for that item.
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.
