Why we read it this way (8)
The title 'Systems Engineer II' implies a mid-level band, but the 5-year hard requirement and the breadth of scope (vulnerability management, compliance, infrastructure-as-code, escalated troubleshooting) support a Senior classification.
SOC is Medium confidence: the role primarily operates and administers existing infrastructure (15-1244), but authoring Azure Functions/Automation Runbooks and infrastructure-as-code introduces a software-development signal that could support 15-1252.
A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science is listed as 'preferred,' not required; a High School diploma is the stated minimum, so the degree requirement is set to None.
Certifications (Office 365, Azure, AWS, Cisco, CompTIA Security+) are explicitly listed as 'preferred' — only CompTIA Security+ is surfaced as a preferred skill as a representative certification signal.
Datadog and OpsGenie are listed together as monitoring tools; Datadog is named as primary with OpsGenie in alternatives. Azure Functions and Azure Automation Runbooks are listed as interchangeable ('and/or'), so they are combined into one skill with the latter in alternatives.
No compensation figures were provided in the posting.
Remote status set to true per caller declaration; no metro is inferred.
Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
