Why we read it this way (8)
The posting lists two locations — Alpharetta, GA and Irving, TX — as equally valid; the GA CBSA is used as primary since it is listed first. The Irving, TX CBSA (Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX; 19100) is an equally valid work site.
The role is placed by ManpowerGroup/Experis, indicating a staffing/contract engagement. The benefits language ('upon completion of waiting period, consultants are eligible for…') and 'weekly pay' confirm this is a W2 contract placement, not a direct hire.
The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's degree OR four or more years of relevant work experience,' making the degree substitutable with experience — treated as no hard degree gate.
The role title is 'Data Scientist' but the day-to-day work described (BI dashboards, SQL, Looker/Qlik reporting, data pipelines, KPI creation) leans heavily toward BI/analytics rather than ML modeling. The alt SOC 15-2031 (Operations Research Analysts) reflects this ambiguity.
Looker and Qlik appear together in both the responsibilities and requirements sections as interchangeable visualization tools; they are also listed separately as distinct named tools used on the team.
GCP, Hadoop, and AI/ML appear in context or narrative sections rather than as standalone hard gates, so they are marked preferred.
No compensation figures were provided beyond a reference to 'competitive pay rate.'
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
