Why we read it this way (7)
The role is a genuine hybrid of full-stack application development and data engineering (pipelines, Data Lake, geospatial data); 15-1252 Software Developers was chosen as primary because the JD emphasizes building and deploying full-stack applications and APIs, with 15-1243 Database Architects as a close runner-up given the data pipeline and lake architecture responsibilities.
The degree requirement accepts a Bachelor's OR 5+ years of equivalent experience, so no hard degree gate is set.
An active TS/SCI clearance is explicitly required.
AWS and Azure appear only in the 'Desired Certifications' section (AWS Certified Data Analytics, Azure Data Engineer Associate), so they are marked as preferred rather than required skills.
The posting does not specify a work location beyond supporting SOUTHCOM; the Northern Virginia/DC metro area is inferred from B&A's stated headquarters and client base in that region.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
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.
