Why we read it this way (6)
The required clearance is Top Secret; an active TS/SCI is listed only under Desired Qualifications, making it preferred rather than a hard gate.
The IAT II certification (CompTIA Security+ or equivalent) is listed under Required Qualifications and is treated as a hard gate; alternatives reflect the DoD 8570 IAT II-approved equivalents.
SOC classification is a judgement call: the role centers on data pipeline/integration engineering and ServiceNow data migration, which fits 15-1243 (Database Architects / data pipeline builders). However, the emphasis on API integration and automation scripting also has affinity with 15-1252 (Software Developers), listed as the runner-up.
The posting is headquartered in Chantilly, VA (Washington DC metro area); no explicit remote option is mentioned.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
Requires a Top Secret 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.
