Why we read it this way (7)
The posting is for a New York State government contract engagement (NYS standards compliance is explicitly required); the location is inferred as Albany, NY — the seat of NYS government — though no city is explicitly stated.
Experience requirements are expressed in months: 'Senior' is defined as 60–84 months (~5–7 years) of overall web development experience, used as the overall years minimum (5). Individual skill requirements are 48 months (~4 years) for Drupal modules and Git, and 64 months (~5 years) for HTML/CSS/SASS, PHP, JavaScript/jQuery.
Twig is listed in the day-to-day tasks narrative rather than the formal qualifications section, but it is presented as a core delivery technology alongside PHP and HTML/CSS; treated as required given the Drupal theming context.
CTools, Views, and Panels are named Drupal modules explicitly called out under the 48-month Drupal requirement; they are emitted as separate skills since each is a distinct, named module.
The alt SOC 15-1252 (Software Developers) is noted because the role includes backend PHP/module development, but the primary framing — Drupal CMS, theming, NYS website delivery — aligns most closely with 15-1254 Web Developers.
No compensation figures are provided.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
