How this req sits in the market our data
Most people in this occupation already list these. Still required — just not what gets you shortlisted.
What the occupation pays Median $166,452 (middle half $130,866–$200,954).
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 (7)
The posting states 'Oracle GoldenGate or similar change data capture (CDC), replication, or data integration technologies' — Oracle GoldenGate is captured as the primary skill; the 'or similar' qualifier means the specific tool is interchangeable, but experience with CDC/replication is a hard gate.
Python is listed alongside 'shell scripting or comparable automation tools' in the required section; shell scripting is captured as an alternative since either satisfies the requirement.
The degree requirement is a Bachelor's in a relevant field; a Master's is explicitly preferred, not required.
The posting is for a new contract engagement but does not specify whether the hire is full-time, contract, or contract-to-hire — employment type left as Unspecified.
No compensation figures are provided.
The role is fully onsite 5 days per week in Reston, VA — not eligible for remote work.
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.
