Why we read it this way (6)
The JD requires hands-on experience across AWS, GCP, and Azure cloud IAM collectively; these are listed as a group under the core requirements. AWS IAM is emitted as the primary with Azure IAM and GCP IAM as alternatives, though in practice the role expects familiarity with all three.
Coding ability and AI-assisted tooling (automating assessments, log parsing, building tooling) appear only under 'Bonus Points' and are explicitly framed as optional; no specific language is named, so no language skill is emitted — only the general coding signal is noted here.
Certifications (SC-300, Okta certs, CISSP, CRTP, OSCP) are explicitly called 'a plus' and are therefore preferred. CRTP and OSCP are listed as interchangeable offensive certs.
The degree requirement accepts 'equivalent experience' as a substitute for the Bachelor's, so no hard degree gate is set.
No compensation figures are disclosed in the posting.
