Why we read it this way (5)
No work location is specified in the posting; CBSA and state are left blank. The role is staffed through Insight Global for an unnamed entertainment client.
The title 'Data Engineer' appears in the posting framing, but the requirements gate on '10+ years in a Data Architect role' with Big Data environments of 100TB+, which drives the SOC toward 15-1243 (Database Architects). The runner-up 15-1252 (Software Developers) reflects the heavy hands-on Python/SQL pipeline development emphasis (~80% of time).
The 10+ years figure is stated at the role level ('10+ years in a Data Architect role') and is captured as the overall experience minimum; no per-technology year counts are given.
All skills are drawn from the explicit 'Skills and Requirements' section and are treated as hard gates. GCS appears twice in the posting (once as 'GCS Buckets' and once as 'Google Cloud Storage (GCS)') — consolidated into a single 'GCS' skill.
Employment type is not stated; the posting is placed by a staffing firm (Insight Global) but does not explicitly label the engagement as contract or full-time.
