Why we read it this way (7)
Experience requirement is 3 years with a degree or 5 years without; the overall years minimum is set to the lower bound of 3.
The posting lists work locations across multiple states (MD, VA, CO, TX, UT, AK, HI) and OCONUS; the CBSA is set to the Baltimore-Columbia-Towson metro as Wyetech's primary base, but the actual assignment location may vary.
TS/SCI with agency-appropriate polygraph is a hard gate stated in both the clearance section and Required Qualifications; this drives the clearance requirement classification.
Remedy (ticketing system) appears only in the Capabilities/operational context section, not in Required Qualifications, so it is marked as preferred.
The role blends network engineering/architecture (design work) with network administration/operations, making the SOC classification a judgment call between 15-1244 and 15-1299; 15-1244 was selected as the closer fit given the emphasis on LAN infrastructure, routing/switching, and firewall configuration.
Ignored 3 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): TS/SCI with polygraph, LAN architecture, Datacenter network design.
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.
