How this req sits in the market our data

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 (10)
No specific work location is stated in the posting; the role is listed as remote-eligible but may require occasional on-site presence at Booz Allen or customer facilities per the work model policy.
The degree requirement (BS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or Electrical Engineering) is listed as a hard gate under 'You Have' with no equivalent-experience substitution offered.
Clearance gate is 'ability to obtain a Secret clearance' (not an active clearance), making it a soft gate in practice; however, the posting explicitly lists it under the required 'You Have' section. Top Secret clearance appears only under 'Nice If You Have' and is treated as preferred.
AWS IoT Greengrass, Snowball Edge, and SageMaker Edge Manager are listed as interchangeable options ('or') for the same edge deployment requirement; Snowball Edge and SageMaker Edge Manager are captured as alternatives.
AI/ML model deployment covers quantization, pruning, model telemetry, secure boot, artifact signing, and encryption — all part of one bundled requirement in the 'You Have' section.
SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role involves both building packaged software solutions (pointing to 15-1252) and operating/managing edge infrastructure (pointing to 15-1244); the emphasis on CI/CD, software engineering, and product management tips the balance toward Software Developers.
The compensation range ($77,600–$176,000/year) is wide, reflecting Booz Allen's multi-level banding; the posting notes it is 'just one component' of total compensation.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): AI/ML model deployment.
Requires a 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.
This posting reads as a fully-remote role, so it was scored against the national candidate pool rather than a single metro.
