Why we read it this way (6)
The role is posted as 'Appian Developer' but involves significant business process re-engineering and stakeholder requirements work, making 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) a plausible runner-up; however, the primary deliverable is building Appian applications, so 15-1252 (Software Developers) is the primary classification.
The JD requires 5+ years total experience with a minimum of 3 years specifically in Appian; the overall years minimum is set to 5 (the role-level gate) and the years demanded of 3 is set on the Appian skill.
The JD also requires 'Appian Administrator' certification or equivalent experience alongside the L2 Developer cert; these are bundled under the Appian Developer (L2) Certification skill as the L2 is the explicitly named hard gate.
AWS appears in the Requirements section but is listed without any qualifying language or years — it reads as a brief add-on rather than a firm gate; treated as preferred accordingly.
The position is fully remote; the company is headquartered in McLean, VA but no specific work location is mandated for the candidate.
Federal space experience is listed as 'preferably' — not a hard gate.
