Why we read it this way (8)
The role is titled 'Information Systems Engineer' but its day-to-day work is squarely PKI/SSL certificate lifecycle management and security monitoring, making 15-1212 (Information Security Analysts) the best fit; 15-1244 (Network and Computer Systems Administrators) is a plausible runner-up given the operational/infrastructure flavor.
The clearance requirement is an AOUSC Public Trust (a federal suitability determination), not a DoD security clearance — it does not map to any of the standard clearance levels (Confidential, Secret, TS/SCI), so the clearance requirement is set to None.
The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's degree … or commensurate experience,' which means equivalent experience is accepted in lieu of a degree — the degree requirement is therefore None.
The 8+ years figure is stated at the role level ('8+ years or commensurate experience') and drives the Senior seniority rating; the 3+ years for PKI/SSL is a named-skill gate and is captured on that skill's years demanded.
Security+ and certificate automation/scripting tools appear only under the 'Preferred Skills and Experience' heading and are marked accordingly.
Certificate automation tools and scripting are listed as a single preferred item; 'certificate automation' is used as the skill name since no specific tool is named.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): certificate automation.
