Why we read it this way (7)
The salary is referenced via a linked schedule ('Click for Salary Schedule') and no numeric compensation figures appear in the posting; compensation fields are left blank.
The posting is for a school district (PISD — likely Pasadena ISD, TX); the 240-duty-day schedule and pay grade TN06 are district-specific classifications.
Degree requirement is None: the JD explicitly accepts an Associate's or technical degree, four years of documented experience, or an equivalent combination — no bachelor's is hard-gated.
The four-year experience alternative to a degree was used to set total experience minimum at 4 years.
SCCM, SQL Server, virtual servers, Google domain, and Microsoft 365 appear in the responsibilities/duties narrative rather than in a formal requirements section, so they are marked preferred.
The role involves supervising contractors and other network technicians, giving it a senior scope; however, it is primarily a hands-on systems/network administration role rather than a people-management role, so 15-1244 is preferred over 11-3021. 15-1241 (Network Architects) is the alt code given the LAN/WAN design and standards-setting duties.
Location inferred as Pasadena, TX (part of the Houston metro CBSA) based on the PISD (Pasadena ISD) reference; the posting does not explicitly state a city.
