Why we read it this way (5)

No work location is specified in the posting; CBSA and state fields are left blank. The role does not appear to be remote given the emphasis on direct reporting to an IT Manager and close collaboration with operations stakeholders, but this is not explicitly stated.

The SOC classification is a close call: the role spans both DBA operations (SQL Server environment ownership, performance tuning) and data/database architecture (schema design, ERD, modernizing legacy processes). 15-1242 (Database Administrators) is chosen as primary given the operational ownership framing; 15-1243 (Database Architects) is the strong runner-up given the design and modernization emphasis.

Relational database design / ERD is listed as a required skill in the requirements block. While 'relational database design' is a methodology rather than a named tool, it is a concrete, gateable technical competency explicitly called out as a hard requirement for this role and is retained here for that reason.

Power BI and Tableau are listed together as a 'plus' (preferred), so Power BI is emitted as preferred with Tableau as an alternative. Domain background in financial services, advertising, or incentive/rebate programs is also noted as a plus but names no specific technology and is omitted from the skills list.

Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): relational database design.
