Why we read it this way (5)
The role is a hybrid of AI/IT operations, technical program management, and light software engineering — it doesn't map cleanly to a single SOC. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used as the best fit; 15-1252 (Software Developers) is the closest runner-up given the coding and systems-integration requirements.
The posting states '2+ years of experience in agentic AI, IT operations, and business systems enablement, 4 years technical program management' — these appear to be two separate experience thresholds. The higher figure (4 years) is used as the overall years minimum since it is the more demanding stated requirement.
C++ is listed alongside Python under Must-Haves as an example language ('proficiency in languages like Python and C++'); the 'like' qualifier suggests these are illustrative rather than both strictly required, but both are listed under the hard-requirements section so both are marked required.
The dashboard/BI tooling requirement names Sheets, SQL, Looker, and 'similar BI tools' — SQL is emitted as a standalone required skill; Looker is the primary named BI tool with Sheets and common alternatives captured.
The company is remote-first with office hubs in Denver and San Francisco; Denver CBSA is used as the primary metro. The role is tagged #LI-remote and explicitly described as remote-first.
