Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.
Why we read it this way (5)
No specific work location is stated beyond 'all U.S. locations'; the role is a long-term contract (staffing/consulting engagement via Codeworks/LRS). Remote status is unspecified in the posting — marked as not fully remote since no remote option is stated.
Java (4+ yrs), JavaScript (3+ yrs), and SQL (2+ yrs) are listed under 'Top Skills' with explicit year requirements and are treated as hard gates. Spring Boot, React, Git, and unit testing appear under 'Additional Experience' — a secondary, non-gating section — and are marked preferred.
Experience with financial systems, invoicing, billing, or payment applications is described as 'highly valued' (not required), so no skill entry was created for it as it names no specific technology.
The 4-year Java requirement anchors the overall years minimum at 4; the overall scope and responsibilities support a Mid-level classification despite the multi-year demands, as the role involves team-level delivery without explicit senior ownership signals.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
