Why we read it this way (7)

The role is explicitly on-site at Fort Huachuca, AZ; a relocation incentive is offered. The nearest CBSA is Sierra Vista-Douglas, AZ (21740).

The clearance requirement is stated as 'active DoD Top Secret' — the posting does not specify SCI, so TopSecret (not TopSecretSci) is used.

A Bachelor's degree is listed under 'Preferred' only, so no minimum degree is hard-required.

DoD environment experience appears under 'Preferred' and is marked accordingly.

This position is contingent on contract award; no compensation figures are provided.

The role's primary day-to-day work is operating and maintaining enterprise IT infrastructure (servers, networks, endpoints) for a government client, which aligns with 15-1244. A secondary classification of 15-1212 (Information Security Analysts) is noted given the substantial cybersecurity duties (RMF, ATO, incident response, continuous monitoring).

Requires a Top Secret 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.
