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 (4)
The degree requirement lists a Bachelor's in CS/IS/Engineering 'or equivalent experience,' so no formal degree is hard-gated.
The 4–6 years figure appears in the Required Qualifications section and applies collectively to SQL, Python, PySpark, AutoSys, Ab Initio, and GCP — individual the years demanded were not split per skill since the range is stated as a group.
BigQuery, Hadoop, and Teradata appear in the responsibilities/narrative sections rather than the Required Qualifications block, so they are marked preferred.
The role sits at the boundary between 15-1243 (Database/Data Architects — pipeline and warehouse design, ETL, migration) and 15-1252 (Software Developers — PySpark/Python coding); 15-1243 was chosen as primary given the dominant focus on data pipeline architecture, ETL design, and a large-scale Teradata-to-GCP migration.
