Why we read it this way (9)

Compensation is listed as 'DOE' (Depends on Experience) — no numeric figures were provided.

The role is a 12-month contract for the South Carolina DMV (SCDMV), supporting interfaces between the Phoenix core system and the Celtic Motor Carrier COTS system.

Work location is hybrid; onsite presence in Blythewood, SC is at the manager's discretion. Candidates must currently reside in SC, NC, or GA and be willing to relocate to SC at their own expense before the start date.

A CJIS information security certification is required, but SCDMV will sponsor it — not a pre-existing credential gate.

The education section states a preference for a Bachelor's degree in an IT-related field with 8 years of experience, OR a minimum of 10 years of related experience as an alternative — no degree is hard-required.

Microsoft technical certifications are noted as a selection factor but explicitly 'not required'.

'State Government experience' is listed as a required skill with a 7-year demand. While this is a domain/context requirement rather than a named technology, it is explicitly called out in the Required Skills section with a specific year threshold and is a meaningful screening criterion for this public-sector engagement.

Microsoft Visio appears under Preferred Skills.

Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
