Expression by level

Illustrative.How a capability deepens by level — the development target — needs the owned capability model (per-level expression isn't in O*NET). The shape below is a design placeholder; the real progression lands with SkillFrame's taxonomy.

Early — applies it to well-scoped tasks under guidance.
Senior — owns it across a system; resolves ambiguity with it.
Principal — sets the approach others reason within.

Related capabilities

Capabilities that co-occur in the same jobs — build one and the others come within reach.

Methodology

Jobs-that-need-it + rarity are real O*NET (importance ratings across 873 occupations; rarity = cross-occupation frequency — the differentiating signal). Definitions are a curated O*NET subset. Per-level expression is illustrative pending SkillFrame's owned taxonomy (built from postings + books + assessment science). Nothing here is fabricated as measured.
