Why we read it this way (4)
The pay range of $52.32–$62.32 is quoted without an explicit 'per hour' label, but the format and magnitude are consistent with an hourly rate; the posting also lists benefits (health, dental, vision, disability, life), which is typical of a contract or full-time hourly engagement. Employment type is left as Unspecified since the posting does not explicitly state it.
The only hard experience gate stated is '6+ years of experience required'; no specific technologies are called out as required by name, so all named skills are inferred from the duties narrative and treated as core competencies for this role.
No degree requirement is stated anywhere in the posting.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): security policy development.
