Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 29, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (5)

This role genuinely blends software development (Angular, Ionic, Spring Boot, code contributions) with platform/infrastructure operations (AWS, patching, release management, PCI), making the SOC classification a close call between Software Developers (15-1252) and Network/Systems Admins (15-1244). The code-writing and architecture responsibilities tipped the classification toward 15-1252.

Microfrontends appears in the narrative/summary context rather than the formal qualifications list, so it is marked preferred.

The degree requirement is a Bachelor's in a related field with no 'or equivalent experience' escape clause, so it is treated as a hard requirement.

PCI compliance and vulnerability management are listed as distinct required knowledge areas; they are captured as separate skills since the posting treats them as such.

Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
