What this job asks for AI summary
A Senior UI/UX Developer role on a federal contract, building the user-facing layer of a cloud-native budget-traceability platform for a government agency. The position spans the full design-to-implementation lifecycle — wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity mockups through to production React/Python front ends integrated with REST APIs. Candidates must hold an active TS/SCI clearance with CI or Full Scope Polygraph and work fully onsite in Reston, VA.

How this req sits in the market our data

What the occupation pays Median $158,337 (middle half $126,441–$180,105).
Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Aug 11, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.
Why we read it this way (8)
The role is described as being for 'an exciting new contract,' indicating this is a contract engagement rather than a direct hire position.
The clearance requirement is TS/SCI with CI (Counterintelligence) or Full Scope Polygraph — one of the two polygraph types is required, not just a base TS/SCI.
The posting lists a Bachelor's degree in engineering, computer science, or a related field as required, with a Master's preferred. Degree requirement is set to Bachelors accordingly.
This role blends UX/product design work (wireframes, prototypes, user research) with production front-end development (React, Python, REST APIs), making it a genuine hybrid. It is classified as Software Developers (15-1252) because production implementation is explicitly required, with Web and Digital Interface Designers (15-1255) as the runner-up given the strong design emphasis.
Python is listed as a required proficiency alongside JavaScript and React, though the role is primarily front-end/UX focused; its back-end or scripting use is not elaborated on in the posting.
Automated front-end testing and design systems/component libraries appear only under Preferred Qualifications and are captured under CI/CD and React respectively rather than as separate entries, as the posting does not name specific tools for these.
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.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
