The Bachelor's degree in Computer Science is listed as 'preferred' and explicitly allows 'equivalent relevant experience,' so no minimum degree is hard-required.
Fineos Admin Suite (Claims) configuration and Java customizations are a central, explicitly called-out focus of this role — not merely a stack mention.
Oracle and MS SQL are listed together as interchangeable relational database options; Oracle is used as the primary name with MS SQL as an alternative.
