“or” means any one of them counts — you don't need all of them.

We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.

Why we read it this way (6)

All named technologies (ReactJS, NodeJS, Java, Spring Boot, JavaScript, Docker/Podman, AWS, MongoDB, Elasticsearch, Gradle) appear exclusively under the 'Nice to Have' section, despite also being listed in the opening line of the posting. The core required qualifications contain no specific technology gates, so all skills are marked preferred.

The posting lists a Bachelor's degree as required but explicitly allows substitution with 4 additional years of relevant experience, so no hard degree requirement is set.

The TS/SCI with active polygraph (within the last 5 years) is a hard gate per the federal contract requirement stated in the posting.

Work locations span multiple states (Maryland, Virginia, Colorado, Texas, Utah, Florida, Hawaii); Maryland is used as the primary CBSA given the company headquarters (Constellation Technologies, cti-md.com) and the first-listed state.

The role title is not specified in the posting; the advertised seniority is therefore Unspecified, though 7+ years of experience and the scope of work support a Senior classification.

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.
