Why we read it this way (5)
Work location is not specified in the posting. ANS is headquartered in the Washington, DC area and the TS/SCI with polygraph requirement strongly suggests a cleared-facility or government-site role in that region, but no city or CBSA is stated.
No compensation figures are provided beyond a general reference to 'excellent compensation' and a note that salary ranges depend on location, experience, and contractual requirements.
The posting names no specific tools or platforms beyond the RMF/A&A framework requirements; all skills extracted are policy/compliance frameworks explicitly listed under Requirements.
Seniority is assessed as Mid: the role involves independent execution of RMF/A&A tasks and artifact development, but no leadership, mentoring, or architectural scope is described, and no years of experience are stated.
Requires a TS/SCI 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.
