Why we read it this way (8)
Location is not stated in the posting. Given the NSA Full Scope Polygraph requirement, the role is very likely in the Fort Meade/Annapolis Junction, MD area (Baltimore-Columbia-Towson CBSA, code 12580), but this is not confirmed in the text.
The experience requirement has two paths: 9+ years with a Bachelor's degree, or 7+ years with a Master's degree. The minimum of 9 years (Bachelor's path) is used for total experience; the Master's path is an alternative that could lower the bar to 7 years.
The degree requirement is listed as a Bachelor's in a technical field; a Master's degree is offered as an alternative that reduces the experience requirement, but a Bachelor's is the stated minimum.
Manual and automated testing experience, requirements analysis, and test results documentation are listed as required qualifications but name no specific tools — they are captured as required skills reflecting the hard gates stated.
All Atlassian tools (Jira, Confluence, TestRay/SynapseRT), Linux, Playwright/Selenium, Cucumber, Gherkin, JMeter, and Swagger appear under 'Desired Qualifications' and are marked as preferred.
TestRay and SynapseRT are listed together as alternatives for the same test management capability; Playwright and Selenium are listed as alternatives for web browser-based testing.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): test plan development.
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.
