“or” means any one of them counts — you don't need all of them.
We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.
Why we read it this way (7)
This role is an industrial automation / PLC programming position, which does not map cleanly to any standard computer/mathematical SOC code. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used as the closest available code; the actual occupation is closer to an industrial controls engineer or automation engineer, which falls under engineering SOCs not available in the schema.
The alternative occupation code field is left empty — no second computer/mathematical SOC is a meaningful runner-up for this role.
Siemens TIA Portal / Step 7 is listed as 'highly preferred,' so it is marked as preferred rather than required.
The posting states compensation is 'negotiable according to experience' with no specific figures provided.
The role requires extensive travel and potential temporary relocation within the US; it is not remote.
HMI is called out explicitly in the responsibilities as a system the candidate must diagnose and resolve issues with, placing it as a required technical skill.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Allen-Bradley Studio 5000.
