Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (11)

The posting targets LATAM and Europe candidates; the caller has confirmed fully remote. The US-based flag is set to false as the primary hiring markets are outside the United States.

No compensation figures are provided.

A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field is listed as a hard minimum qualification — not waived by equivalent experience.

CDC (Change Data Capture) is listed as a required skill but without naming a specific tool (e.g. Debezium, AWS DMS); it is captured as the canonical acronym.

MongoDB and Redis appear together under Preferred Qualifications as a NoSQL pair; they are treated as alternatives to each other since the JD frames them as interchangeable examples of NoSQL experience.

Datadog is listed under Preferred Qualifications with 'or equivalent', so it is marked preferred; the 'or equivalent' qualifier is noted but does not change the preferred status.

Kubernetes appears only under 'Nice to Have', so it is marked preferred.

AI/MLOps data infrastructure and multi-tenant database architecture experience appear under 'Nice to Have' but name no specific tool, so they are omitted from the skills list per extraction rules.

The alternative occupation runner-up (15-1244) reflects that the role has a strong operational/administration character (backup, patching, monitoring), but the explicit IaC/Terraform ownership and architecture leadership tip the primary classification to 15-1242 Database Administrators.

Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.

This role's work location reads as outside the US — the candidate pool, comp, and contention benchmarks here are US-only (BLS employment, Adzuna/USAJOBS demand, and certified H-1B wages), so treat them as a rough US reference, not a local market.
