Why we read it this way (7)
The role title 'Solutions Architect' carries no explicit seniority level, so the title states no level; however, the 7+ years requirement and scope of responsibilities support a Senior classification.
A Public Trust clearance is required, but this is not a national security clearance (Confidential/Secret/TS) — it is a federal suitability determination. The clearance requirement field is set to None as Public Trust does not map to any of the enumerated clearance levels.
The posting states the candidate must be a US citizen and able to obtain a Public Trust clearance — worth noting for candidate eligibility screening even though it is not captured in the clearance field.
Cloud platform requirement lists AWS, Azure, or GCP as interchangeable options; AWS is listed first and all three are captured under a single skill with alternatives.
Docker and Kubernetes are listed together as containerization examples; both are emitted as separate required skills given they are distinct tools commonly used together rather than true substitutes.
Full-stack development skills (Java, Spring, React, TypeScript) appear under 'Desired Skills and Competencies' and are marked preferred accordingly.
SOC confidence is Medium: the role blends systems analysis, enterprise architecture, and some hands-on engineering. 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) best fits the primary day-to-day work of translating business/mission needs into technical architectures; 15-1299 is noted as a runner-up given the architect framing.
