Why we read it this way (3)
The job title is 'Engineer I Data Scientist' but the actual described work is entry-level data integration, reporting, and visualization support — closer to a reporting/BI analyst (15-2031) than a data scientist (15-2051). The role is classified as 15-2031 given the emphasis on dashboarding and reporting tools, but 15-2051 is a plausible alternative given the title.
All named technologies (SQL, Power BI, Denodo) appear only under 'Preferred Education, Experience, & Skills' and are therefore marked as preferred rather than required.
The degree requirement states 'BS degree or higher in Engineering or a related technical field is required' but also notes 'related technical experience may be considered in lieu of education' — this was treated as a hard Bachelors requirement since the experience-in-lieu clause is a common hedge and the primary language is 'required'.
