Why we read it this way (6)
The role sits between network operations and network architecture — it is primarily hands-on infrastructure support and troubleshooting (pointing toward 15-1244) but also involves design reviews, governance, and architecture discussions (pointing toward 15-1241). 15-1244 was chosen because day-to-day operational support and multi-site infrastructure delivery are the dominant activities described.
Cisco certifications (CCNA, CCNP, CCIE) are listed in the Skills and Requirements section but framed as a credential rather than a hard gate with firm language; treated as preferred. The three cert levels are collapsed into one skill with alternatives since any one would satisfy the requirement.
ITIL, cybersecurity/CISO exposure, OT/IT integration, cloud infrastructure, large-ISP experience, manufacturing environment experience, and infrastructure governance all appear in the same Skills and Requirements block but without firm gating language ('experience with', 'exposure to') — treated as preferred.
Vendor/MSP management is listed in the required section with firm language and is a clear hard gate, even though it is a coordination competency rather than a named tool.
No compensation range was stated in the posting.
Ignored 3 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Vendor/MSP management, OT/IT network segmentation, Infrastructure governance.
