Why we read it this way (8)
This requisition covers two job levels simultaneously: Level II (2+ years) and Level III (4+ years). The pay range ($69,550–$125,725/year) spans both levels. The overall years minimum is set to 2 (the lower gate).
A Bachelor's degree is listed as a basic qualification but the JD explicitly states additional years of professional and/or military experience may be substituted in lieu of a degree, so the degree requirement is set to None.
The role is hybrid (primarily on-site at Fort Meade, MD, with 1–2 remote days per week depending on mission needs) — not fully remote.
DoD 8140/8570 IAT Level II certification (e.g., Security+) is a hard gate: the JD states it must be held prior to start date.
RMF, eMASS, FISMA, SSP, and POA&M are listed as primary responsibilities with firm language in the Basic Qualifications context; they represent the core compliance/authorization work the role is hired to perform.
All Preferred Qualifications skills (Cross Domain Solutions, SABI, firewalls/VPN/virtualization/DLP, Linux/Unix, IDS/IPS) are listed under the explicit 'PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS' heading.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): DoD 8140/8570 IAT Level II (Security+).
Requires a Secret clearance — the cleared population is a small fraction of this occupation, so the real candidate pool is materially smaller than the estimate below, which does not model clearance.
