Why we read it this way (5)
The Must-Haves section requires 'Sybase ASE and/or DB2' — these are listed as alternatives to each other for the hard gate, but both appear in the broader platform list the role supports day-to-day.
Sybase IQ, Sybase Replication, Postgres, Hadoop, MSSQL, MongoDB, and Oracle appear in the day-to-day duties narrative as platforms supported, but are explicitly called out only under Nice-to-Haves (Oracle, Postgres, MSSQL, MongoDB) or in the general duties description — none are hard-gated in the Must-Haves block.
Compensation is posted as a flat $60/hr rate with no range spread.
The posting is placed by NTT DATA as a staffing/consulting engagement for an unnamed client, which is consistent with a contract or contract-to-hire arrangement; employment type is treated as Contract accordingly.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
