Why we read it this way (6)
The role is titled 'IT Project Specialist' (civil service title 06797) but the actual work is hands-on Appian software development and release management — classified as Software Developers (15-1252). 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is noted as a runner-up given the low-code/platform-specialist nature of the work.
The posting allows up to 2 days/week remote under a city pilot program; this is a hybrid arrangement, not fully remote, so remote is set to false.
The degree requirement states a bachelor's degree OR equivalent education/experience. Because equivalent experience is explicitly accepted, the degree requirement would normally be None; however, the formal minimum listed is a baccalaureate, so it is flagged as Bachelors with this caveat.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
Seniority is assessed as Mid: the civil service title and 4-year experience floor align with mid-level, despite the breadth of Appian responsibilities described. The title carries no explicit seniority label.
Ignored 3 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): release management, configuration management, low-code platform development.
