Why we read it this way (8)
Location is not specified in the posting — the role is listed via Haystack on behalf of an unnamed partner, so no CBSA or state could be determined.
The clearance requirement has two tiers: candidates must currently hold an active Secret clearance AND be able to obtain TS/SCI. The hard gate is Secret; the clearance requirement is set accordingly.
The framework requirement asks for experience with 'at least two of' React, Angular, Python, JavaScript, CSS, HTML — meaning no single one of these is individually required. They are captured as a grouped must-have with alternatives, reflecting that the gate is meeting the threshold across the set rather than any specific tool.
The technology list (Apache Spark, Kubernetes, Kafka, Docker, Git, RHEL) is framed as 'familiarity with technologies such as' — a softened, non-gating phrasing — so these are marked preferred.
The role blends full-stack software development with Agile/Scrum project leadership (managing the scrum board, defining user stories). The alt SOC 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) reflects the project/process coordination dimension, though software development appears to be the primary function.
An 8140 DCWF certification (e.g., CompTIA Security+, IT Project Manager) is listed as a requirement but names no specific technology or tool, so it is not captured as a skill.
The Master's degree path requires 10+ years; the minimum stated overall is 8+ years with a Bachelor's, so the overall years minimum is set to 8.
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.
