Why we read it this way (10)
The role is highly specialized in OpenText Exstream for Customer Communications Management (CCM); 15-1252 (Software Developers) is the best available fit, though 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is a reasonable runner-up given the niche platform focus.
The JD requires 12+ years total IT experience and 10+ years specifically on OpenText Exstream — the 10-year figure is placed on the skill's years demanded; the 12-year total is captured as the role-level minimum.
Quadient Inspire is listed as a required secondary skill ('knowledge required') in the Required Qualifications section, so it is treated as a hard gate.
Cloud hyperscaler experience (AWS / Azure / GCP) is required; AWS is listed first with Azure and GCP as named alternatives.
Messaging queues knowledge is explicitly flagged as 'desirable' in the required section — treated as preferred.
Knowledge of other CCM tools (xPression, Oracle Documaker), scripting languages, and Mainframe experience are all described as 'desirable' — treated as preferred.
The individual Exstream module names (Design Manager, Designer, Empower Editor, Content Author, Communication Designer, Orchestration) are listed as distinct named components under Required Qualifications and are emitted as separate skills.
No visa sponsorship is available per the posting.
The role is hybrid (not fully remote) in Columbus, GA.
