Why we read it this way (7)
No specific work location or metro area is stated; Planet Technologies serves public sector clients nationally and the posting does not specify a city, state, or remote arrangement — location is genuinely unclear.
Remote status is unspecified; the posting makes no mention of remote or on-site work. Defaulted to false given the public-sector/federal consulting context, but this is uncertain.
Clearance: the posting states 'Federal Agency Clearance Requirements may require up to a 10-year background investigation — US Citizenship (clearable) is required.' This is a conditional/potential requirement, not a hard gate on holding an active clearance today, so the clearance requirement is set to None. Candidates should be aware they must be US citizens and clearable.
The 'LLMs' and 'data science methodology' requirement appears in the Qualifications section alongside data governance and data modeling, making it a hard gate despite being an emerging/broad skill area.
The alt SOC 15-2051 (Data Scientists) is noted because the role explicitly requires LLM/data science methodology and AI security, blending classic data architecture with data science concerns.
No degree is explicitly required; the posting notes that certifications or past work may substitute for years of experience, indicating equivalent experience is accepted.
Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): data governance, Zero Trust Architecture.
