Why we read it this way (8)
This role is classified as a W2 contract ('contingent') engagement, not a permanent hire, despite being described as 'full-time.'
The posting is listed as onsite in Seattle, WA, not remote, though the staffing platform (24-MAG LLC) typically places professionals in remote consulting roles — the contract details section explicitly states 'Onsite role based in Seattle, WA.'
SOC classification is Medium confidence: the role writes infrastructure-as-code (Terraform), automation scripts (Python/Node.js), and CI/CD pipelines — pointing to 15-1252 Software Developers — but also has a strong operational/monitoring flavor (incident response, on-call, production ops) that could support 15-1244. The code-authoring responsibilities are primary.
Security scanning tools (Semgrep, Checkov, Lacework) appear in the responsibilities narrative as examples of tooling to 'run, tune, and integrate'; they are listed under the 'Ideal Profile' section as 'exposure to SAST, DAST, CSPM' tooling, so they are treated as required with Semgrep as the primary and the others as named alternatives.
Observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, LGTM stack) appear in the responsibilities section; Prometheus is used as the primary skill name with Grafana and LGTM stack as alternatives since the JD presents them as interchangeable options in the same monitoring context.
HIPAA compliance experience is listed under 'Nice to Have,' not the core requirements section, so it is not marked as a hard gate despite the role operating in HIPAA-regulated environments.
No overall years-of-experience requirement is stated anywhere in the posting; seniority is assessed as Mid based on the scope described (team contributor, follows standards, works under senior engineers) rather than a leadership or org-wide authority role.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
