What won't set you apart
Nagios45%

Most people in this occupation already list these. Still required — just not what gets you shortlisted.

What the occupation pays Median $125,654 (middle half $96,394–$162,956). This posting is about at that midpoint.

Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 29, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (6)

The posted pay range is listed as $0–$0/hr, which is a placeholder; actual compensation is not disclosed and will vary by contract rate, experience, and location.

Experience requirement is 10 years with a degree or 15 years without — the degree requirement is set to None because equivalent experience is explicitly accepted in lieu of a degree.

The posting references work locations across Maryland, Virginia, Colorado, Texas, Utah, Alaska, Hawaii, and OCONUS; the NSAW/UDC mission context strongly implies the primary site is the Fort Meade/Annapolis Junction, MD area (CBSA: Baltimore-Columbia-Towson, MD).

XFS, GPFS, and Lustre are listed together as interchangeable examples of HPC file systems the candidate must support; similarly, RES, LSF, and SLURM are listed as interchangeable distributed computing scheduler examples — each group is captured with alternatives accordingly.

The $5,000 sign-on bonus and 20% SEP IRA auto-contribution are notable compensation elements not captured in the structured pay fields.

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.
