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 is a contract role on New York State's Hourly-Based IT Services (HBITS) vehicle, billed hourly; no salary range is stated in the posting.
The posting does not name a specific city beyond 'State of New York.' Albany (the state capital) is assumed as the likely work location given the HBITS contract context, but the actual site was not specified.
The certification requirement is a hard gate: the candidate must hold at least one of CCNA, CCNP, CCIE, CompTIA Network+, CompTIA Security+, or CISSP. These are captured as a single required skill with alternatives.
Experience in the transportation sector (adaptive traffic signal control, ITS, ATMS) is listed as a required experience block, not merely preferred, so it is marked as required.
The 48-month cross-functional collaboration requirement is a soft/communication skill and is not emitted as a named technology skill per extraction rules.
Ignored 5 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): network design and architecture, real-time data processing, Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS), root cause analysis, zero-trust architecture.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
