Why we read it this way (5)
The clearance requirement is TS/SCI Eligible (active), with a Counterintelligence (CI) Polygraph that may be required post-hire depending on assignment — the JD frames the polygraph as a condition of continued employment rather than a hard pre-hire gate, but candidates must be able to obtain and maintain CI Polygraph eligibility.
The degree requirement is a Bachelor's in a related field, but the JD explicitly accepts 4 additional years of experience in lieu of a degree, so no minimum degree is flagged as a hard gate.
The role sits at the boundary between database/data architecture (designing enterprise database systems, large relational databases, warehouse integration) and software development (building a visual analytic application, high-performance computing). Database Architects (15-1243) was selected as primary given the emphasis on data modeling, ETL, and enterprise database design; Software Developers (15-1252) is the close runner-up given the application development and analytics engineering scope.
Java, Oracle, PostgreSQL, and Apache Spark are all listed together under the Requirements section as part of a single ETL/data migration knowledge requirement — each is captured as a separate required skill.
Requires a TS/SCI 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.
