Why we read it this way (7)
The title 'Cloud Infrastructure Engineer II' signals a mid-level (II) posting, but the actual requirements — 6+ years of Linux administration, senior-level system administration duties, lead ownership of cloud infrastructure, and strategic planning responsibilities — support a Senior classification.
The role sits between 15-1252 (Software Developers) and 15-1244 (Network and Computer Systems Administrators). It writes IaC and automation code (Terraform, Ansible, Python, Bash, CI/CD), which pulls toward 15-1252, but a substantial portion of the day-to-day work is operating and administering existing AWS/Azure infrastructure, Linux/Windows systems, and networks, which pulls toward 15-1244. 15-1252 was chosen as primary because the JD explicitly calls for building automation, IaC, and CI/CD pipelines.
Location is stated as 'Northwest, AZ,' which is not a recognized city; the nearest major metro is Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler, AZ (CBSA 38060), used here as the best available approximation.
The degree requirement states 'BA/BS (4-year degree) or equivalent experience,' so no hard degree gate is set.
Datadog and Rapid7 are listed together as examples of cloud monitoring tools under the Technical Proficiency section; they are treated as alternatives for the same monitoring requirement rather than two separate skills.
AWS certifications (Solutions Architect, SysOps Administrator) are explicitly called 'a plus' and are marked as preferred accordingly.
No compensation figures were provided in the posting.
