Why we read it this way (7)
The role is titled 'Software Engineer II', which maps to a Mid-level band; however, the 5+ years of experience requirement and enterprise-scale scope could support a Senior classification. The lower band was chosen per tiebreaker rules.
The posting is a 12-month contract engagement through CTG (a staffing/consulting firm), not a direct hire.
Education: an Associate degree is stated as required, but a Bachelor's is only preferred, and equivalent professional experience may be considered — so no formal degree is treated as a hard gate.
ServiceNow SIR, USEM, and SecOps are listed as 'highly preferred' within the Required Skills section but are explicitly qualified as preferred/exposure-level, so they are marked as preferred rather than required.
The alt SOC 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is noted because the role blends systems analysis duties (analyze, design, document, evaluate integrations) with hands-on ServiceNow development; the primary classification as Software Developers reflects the dominant build/develop framing.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
